Every year more colleges and high schools are offering classes (and often making them required classes) in Black history. Joanne TurnerSadler provides a concise and probing treatment of 400 years of Black history in America that can be used with age groups ranging from high school through college and beyond.

Some essential topics covered in this updated edition: African Kingdoms and Rise of Slavery in Europe; The Roots of Oppression in the Americas; The Origins of the Black Middle Class; Emancipation, Civil Rights, and the Quest for Equality; The First Black President and the Growth of New Coalitions; Demographic and Ethnic Change beyond the 20th Century; Them Vs. Us: Tribalism and Voter Suppression. This book is an indispensable addition to all library collections as well as a teaching tool for instructors.

This second edition of Asian/American Scholars of Education: 21st Century Pedagogies, Perspectives, and Experiences shares an updated number of Asian/American luminaries in the field of education. This updated collection of essays and national data analyses acknowledges the struggle that Asian/American Education scholars have faced when it comes to being regarded as legitimate scholars deserving of endowed or distinguished status in the field of education. The chapter contributors in this second edition include postdoctoral mentees, former students, and colleagues of the newly added Asian/American endowed and distinguished professors featured in the book: Hua-Hua Chang, Nicholas Hartlep, Guofang Li, Justin Perry, and Kui Xie. Asian/American Scholars of Education makes an important impact by continuing to ask: Why are there so few Asian/American endowed and distinguished faculty members in education? Ideal for undergraduate and graduate level courses in Asian American Studies, higher education adminstration, and teacher education.

We are living in historic times and negotiating multiple national crises. The confluence of the COVID-19 pandemic and unrelenting state-sanctioned murders of Black people has disproportionately impacted our women and girls at the intersections of employment, citizenship, housing, healthcare, and motherhood statuses. As many individuals rally for liberation on the frontlines, how might educational institutions intervene as sources of respite and reparation? Historically, racialized sexism in U.S. schools has manifested uniquely for Black girl-identified adolescents (including cisgender, queer, and transgender youth). These learners face heightened exposure to malicious discourses and exclusionary disciplinary policies. Engendering #BlackGirlJoy identifies the teaching practices that equip young Black women to locate, analyze, heal from, and ultimately thrive through the suffering they face inside and outside of schools. The book is rooted in the author’s experience as a South Los Angeles high school teacher working at her alma mater, trying to cultivate the life-affirming education that she desired as a child. Centering her students’ perspectives, Monique Lane outlines a Black feminist pedagogical framework that inspired bountiful #BlackGirlJoy in one embattled public
