A politics of the toilet
In this viewpoint article, I examine geographies of the bathroom as a critical site where institutional power, biopolitical governance, and early childhood social life intersect. Drawing on vignettes from a New York City preschool, as well as secondary data from an image-based study in which a 3-year-old photographed his own poop, I analyze how early childhood institutions use toileting schedules and spatial design to produce ‘docile subjects’ th…
Working the Image
The use of visual methodologies within the area of qualitative research has seen a marked shift over the last century. These changes have been driven by a variety of factors: the development of camera technologies, approaches to visual research, increasing attention to the ethics of image-making and circulation, among others. In this chapter, we articulate some significant shifts in visual methodologies related to camera technologies, approaches …
Borderlands Childhoods
Given mainstream narratives that depict the borderlands as a place of fear and violence, this study offers alternative visuals that highlight how transfronterizx children view their language and literacy practices in relation to their experiences in the Texas–Mexico borderlands. The study draws on borderlands biliteracies and critical childhood studies to analyze the children's fotografías and photo-elicitation interviews. The findings demonstrat…
Scatological Matters and a Politics of Care in Early Childhood
Background or Context: Early childhood education in the United States has increasingly abdicated its role in caregiving. A central argument we make in this article is that the separation of care from education in early childhood has shaped how caregiving routines unfold, with significant implications for how children—particularly children of Color attending predominantly white early childhood institutions—come to understand themselves and their s…
Reflecting, Representing, and Expanding the Narrative(s) in Early Childhood Curriculum
In this manuscript, we recognize that young children learn stories that propagate white supremacist narratives through selective traditions of early childhood curriculum. The role of early childhood teachers, therefore, is to critically examine curriculum for biases, omissions, and distortions, as well as to rewrite curriculum to tell accurate stories and disrupt what Viet Thanh Nguyen refers to as “narrative scarcity”. Through a qualitative stud…
Childhood Innocence for Settler Children
This article explores the challenges of rewriting prescriptive early childhood curriculum wherein settler colonialism and childhood innocence as a discourse reinforce one another. We attend to two primary ideas: 1) that the presence of settler colonialism pervades everyday practices in the early years, and 2) early childhood curriculum maintains young children’s innocence vis-a-vis the regulation of their knowledge of colonial violence and Indige…
The Practice of Listening to Children
In this research article, Haeny Yoon and Tran Nguyen Templeton explore the challenges of listening to children in both classrooms and research that purports to center young children. Through two stories from their respective studies, Yoon and Templeton highlight the complexities of following children's leads given the competing agendas situating the work of teachers and researchers in neoliberal contexts. Time constraints, curricular mandates, an…
That street is taking us to home ’
Children’s identities constitute and are constituted by the everyday spaces they inhabit. Though there are innumerable accounts of what adults think public spaces like subways and city streets mean to children, fewer recorded accounts exist from young children themselves (Faulkner and Zolkos 2016, “Introduction.” In Critical Childhood Studies and the Practice of Interdisciplinarity, ix–xvii. Lexington: Lanham.). In this work I explored 2- – 5-yea…
