The Absence of Suspensions is Not the Evidence of Chaos
Suspensions are Still Not Helping the Children
Perpetual Projects of Potential
This literature review interrogates the genealogy of questions posed about Black men and boys in Urban Education from 1965 to 2025, tracing how policy eras have delimited their discursive framing within educational research. Drawing on Goldberg's (1993) racial knowledg e and Wynter's (1995) subjective understanding , we employ a Foucauldian genealogical analysis to examine four policy periods—from the Moynihan Report to George Floyd's racial reck…
Into Deep
Typically, high disciplinary rates for Black students correspond with poor academic performance. However, is the opposite also true? This study sought to identify and investigate the characteristics of urban educational academic success by geospatially mapping schools in Texas that have assisted Black children toward high academic achievement while limiting their exposure to punitive disciplinary outcomes (suspensions). The study uncovers the geo…

Linguistic Diversity in a Multilingual State
Making deep-structure adaptations
Objectives : This study responds to the suicide crisis among Black youth populations by tailoring suicide interventions to meet their specific cultural needs. We obtained insight from community stakeholders about culturally adapting suicide prevention interventions for Black youth, using the Linking Individuals Needing Care intervention as an example. Method : Using a culturally adaptive qualitative design Process, we conducted a series of commun…
Dead Spaces in Teaching and Teacher Education
Teacher Education in the Age of Generative Artificial Intelligence
Plantation economy religion
Research about Black boys in predominantly white conservative Christian schools has centered on their racialized experiences. For Black males, these experiences have been traumatic because their white Christian teachers and classmates have demonstrated anti-black racism through the use of derogatory language, social exclusion, and stereotyping. Researchers have focused on this anti-blackness with little consideration for the religious environment…
Carceral and Cathartic by Design
The longstanding overrepresentation of Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC) students in United States K-12 exclusionary school discipline outcomes (i.e., suspension, expulsions, referrals to law enforcement and arrests) underscores the unrecognized concept that school discipline disparities are a purported outcome—rather than a flaw—of a racialized educational system. While these outcomes are prevalent across all school locales, t…
Are Deficit Perspectives of Black and Brown Students Grounded in Empirical Data? Investigating the Myths of “Urban Education” Through Parent Satisfaction
Deficit ideologies permeate urban spaces particularly when mostly Black and Brown students attend neighborhood schools. Wealth concentrated in suburban areas further perpetuates stereotypes of urban as deficient, but empirical data has yet to interrogate these ideas. Using the National Household Education Survey and regression analysis of variance, this research determines the relationship between parents’ satisfaction with their child’s school a…
Forensic Anthropology in the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (Aafs)
This article traces demographic, membership, matriculation, and mentorship trends in forensic anthropology from the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS) Anthropology Section's founding in 1972 through the present. The article relies on two datasets: a larger dataset comprised of AAFS Anthropology Section membership data and a smaller dataset (Dataset II) constructed from survey data volunteered by practicing forensic anthropologists and f…
Teachers’ Psychological Distress in North Carolina
Teachers experience a great deal of psychological distress. However, there is a gap in the literature concerning the difference between the distress of teachers working in urban schools versus those in non-urban schools. Thus, the present study utilizes data from the 2018 North Carolina Teacher Working Conditions Survey to conduct a statistical analysis of the agreeability differences between urban and non-urban teachers’ responses to constructs …
The Discipline Gatekeeper
School discipline disparities for African American students in urban schools continue to be a topic of contention. While research has rightfully called into question the practices and preparation of teachers and principals, the role that assistant principals serve as disciplinary gatekeepers has gone relatively unnoticed in the literature. The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of five assistant principals at two urban middle sc…
Disaster Victim Identification in the 21st Century
We Matter Too
The present article problematizes faculty relationships within academic departments by applying critical race theory (counterstorytelling) to generate equity cases promoting racial healing. These equity cases illustrate the utility of an emergent typology, the equity paradox. More specifically, the equity paradox describes the web of reprisals endured by faculty of color who advocate for the authentic actualization of university-sponsored diversi…
Is the employment of school resource officers in high schools associated with Black girls’ discipline outcomes
In recent years, the media has highlighted the disrespectful and sometimes violent manner in which SROs respond to Black girls’ behaviors. Few studies question how SROs in schools might influence traditional school discipline outcomes such as suspensions for a double minoritized group (race and gender) such as Black girls. Leaning on the Black feminist framework of Intersectionality and QuantCrit and using the most recent data from the Office of …
Employing the Urban Education Typology Through a Critical Race Spatial Analysis
Unsung Heroes on Campus
This study explored the impact of race on the higher education transition experiences of three groups of male student veterans: Black, Hispanic/Latinx, and Asian. Grounded in the premise of Critical Race Theory, especially Cabrera’s Hegemonic Whiteness and Yosso’s Cultural Capital, we collected and analyzed 17 student veterans’ in-depth interviews centering the voices of the participants marginalized due to race, age, and veteran status. Findings…
The Equity Paradox Typology
This inquiry unearths the stratified nature of racial harm in higher education by applying counterstorytelling to fashion an equity case study on racial harm. Racial harm consists of four conditions (hyper-cognition, hyper-isolation, hyper-distress, and hyper-reactivity) brought on by persistent exposure to racial discrimination embedded subtlety within academic departments as a series of racialized conflicts (diversity & curriculum clashes, and …
Politics, preoccupations, pragmatics
The need for sustained scholarly analysis and knowledge building on issues of race and ethnicity in social work research is as compelling as ever given the intensification of global racial inequalities, issues associated with the ‘migrant crisis’, the spread of populist racialised political discourse and the ongoing downward pressure of neo-liberal imperatives. This field of research has been subject to deep conceptual shifts, competing theoretic…

Enriching Their Potential
Intense pressure from multiple stakeholders has forced teacher preparation programs (TPPs) to investigate better methods to prepare teacher candidates to enter classrooms and instruct students on day one. Part of this increased level of accountability has resulted in the formation of teacher evaluative assessments as state licensure exams. One licensure exam sweeping across TPPs in the United States is edTPA. This portfolio-based assessment has g…
Forging new ‘ways of life’? Social policy and nation building in devolved Scotland and Wales
This paper explores the ways in which social policy is being used to recreate and reproduce a sense of nation and national identity in devolved Scotland and Wales. It argues that devolution has important consequences for our sense of Britishness and of Scottishness and Welshness, not least in relation to the ways in which social policies are presented and legitimated. It is further argued that across the UK there is a marked attempt by New Labour…
Revisiting the rural/race debates
The analysis of the specific features of rural racism and rural/race issues is a developing field of study. Much of the debate and existing research focuses on demonstrating the 'specificity' of rural/race issues and responding to the 'rural ethnic subject' as the victim of racial exclusion and/or violence. Drawing on a study conducted in the north of Wales and work on Welsh narratives on race, this article seeks to revisit the rural/ race debate…
Devolution, multicultural citizenship and race equality
The devolved nations of the UK have been constituted on the basis of the ambition to increase inclusiveness and democratic involvement, underpinned by specific equality duties. As such they represent a critical point of reference for ethnic minorities in securing recognition, rights and representation in core social policy fields that shape their lived experiences of welfare. These newly established policy territories offer a testbed for tracking…
Reviving social work through moral outrage
Inspired by Hessel’s (2011) call in Time for outrage and drawing on the concept of ‘moral outrage’, we argue in this article that addressing contraventions of human rights and social justice issues demands an emotional connection with the nature of injustice. We propose that contemporary social work in Western liberal democracies has lost touch with the moral imperative, sentiment and affective encounter as a positive impetus for collective actio…

Introduction
This paper argues both that devolution is central to our understanding of developments in social policy in the contemporary UK and that social policy is a key means through which we can develop a critical understanding of the process of devolution itself. Much of the devolved powers available to the governments in Edinburgh, Belfast and Cardiff centre on social policy innovation and practice. Devolution was widely welcomed as opening up the poten…

Evidence Of Hydatid Disease In a Plains Woodland Burial
Hydatid disease is one of the more significant human parasitizations. This disease, caused by a canid tapeworm (Echinococcosus granufosus), is endemic to several regions of the world, primarily those where cattle and sheepherding is common. It is also found among hunting societies. The hydatid cysts which are formed by this infestation most often affect the lungs or liver, where mortality eventually occurs through organ dysfunction. Paleopatholog…
Moral outrage! Social work and social welfare
As guest editors of this Australasia-Pacific Special Issue, we are inspired by Stephane Hessel's poignant call in Time for Outrage! (2011), which implores us to shirk complacency and indifference and be moved to react to the unbearable things we see around us. Social work/social welfare practitioners are critically placed to bear witness to these injustices and morally obligated to speak out, act up and resist. Infringements of ethical standards …
Ecstasies of the Young
In 1913 the bourgeois youth movement in Germany fell under the influence of a radical minority who called for complete emancipation from adult control. The two most influential youth movement publications of that year joined the language of countercultural rebellion with unconventional discussions of adolescent sexuality. Hans Blüher's book The German Wandervogel Movement as an Erotic Phenomenon argued that the adolescent boys and young adult mal…
The Chords of the German Soul are Tuned to Nature”
In the early 1930s, Dr. Konrad Guenther, a longtime advocate of nature conservation, was exhorting the German people to return to “the soil of the homeland.” In the past, according to Guenther, whenever the German people had been forced to respond vigorously to the pressure of hard times, they had returned to their “natural” roots. He called on the population to learn about the Heimat (homeland) and its natural environment, ‘not only through reas…

Teacher education and multicultural courses in North Carolina
Purpose Teacher effectiveness in diverse school environments depends highly on the multicultural education courses provided by Educator Preparation Programs (EPP). Research measuring new teachers’ (i.e. teachers having 0-3 years of teaching experience) effectiveness as a result of EPPs’ multicultural education courses is limited. The purpose of this study was to examine if any association occurred between the number of multicultural courses offer…

Interest in collecting social work histories has gathered pace with collections held by the Social Work History Network in Edinburgh University and Kings College, and several writers offering historical accounts of the development of social work. Few systematic accounts exist that specifically track the history of social work and social work education for engagement with black lives and with black communities, though there exists a considerable b…

can no longer speak generally or truthfully for all Americans. Recognizing that this is a truth we more or less accept for varying reasons, it is nevertheless also true that many white writers, extensions of the literary establishment, which itself is a part of other quasiestablishments, refuse to recognize the right and the ability of nonwhites, particularly black writers, to speak for themselves and their people. But black writers still demand …
