The Poverty Pimpin’ Project
Tutoring programs that link colleges to public schools are seen as a way to improve the academic performance of K12 students while providing a practicum site for college-age students. Prior research on college-K12 partnerships focuses on how the academic achievement of both K12 and college students are enhanced by these relationships. This article challenges the stock story that such outreach programs are unproblematic and entirely altruistic end…
What School Movies and TFA Teach Us About Who Should Teach Urban Youth
White teacher savior films (WTSFs) depict the teaching profession as one for which conventional credentialing is unnecessary. White teachers with little training and experience perform miracles in urban classrooms where trained, experienced teachers have failed. This same narrative is echoed in alternative credential programs such as Teach For America ( TFA ). This article compares the WTSF and TFA narratives with the educational research and fin…

In the field of education, critical theorists, critical pedagogues, and critical race theorists call for academics to engage in activist academic work to promote the social transformation of the material conditions created by racism and other forms of oppression. This article is a response to this call for academics, particularly those in the field of education, to confront inequities resulting from intersecting oppressions such as heterosexism, …

This article narrates the story of how a peace education program, over the course of a year, shifts from a more traditional form of peace education as conflict resolution skill building to a critical form of peace education. The path of this journey was neither straight nor direct; rather it meandered through an iteration of itself that actually produced another form of violence among its educators. Thus, in this one-case study, three different f…
Critical Co-Constructed Autoethnography
In this article, the authors describe critical co-constructed autoethnography as a methodology steeped in critical theory, critical pedagogy and critical race theory. It provides a way for collaborating activist researchers to reflect on the tempo, uncertainty, and complexity of research relationships that cross boundaries into more personal spaces such as friendships. Further, critical co-constructed authoethnography creates spaces for collabora…
