“Going for Broke”: Working with Teacher Candidates to Bring about Intersectional Socially Just Teaching
Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: Embodying James Baldwin’s call to “go for broke” in the face of the current “dangerous time” and ongoing “determined resistances,” this article argues for an intersectional social justice praxis for preparing and supporting teacher candidates and novice teachers to work with diverse students. We posit a sustained intersectional social justice framework for teaching, coaching, and mentoring that requires reckoning with the foundations of the field of teacher education and working with teachers and teacher candidates.
