In the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement, there has been a growing recognition of the need to address racial injustice in our schools and society. As educators, we have a responsibility to challenge the systemic racism that is present in our institutions and empower our students to become agents of change. Teaching as protest is a powerful way to do this.
Teaching as protest is a pedagogical approach that uses the classroom as a site of resistance against racial oppression. It is based on the belief that education should not be neutral, but should be used to promote social justice and empower students to challenge the status quo. Teachers who practice teaching as protest use their classrooms to raise awareness of racial injustice, challenge racist stereotypes, and empower students to speak out against racism.
There are many different ways to practice teaching as protest. Some teachers may choose to incorporate anti-racist texts into their curriculum, while others may organize protests or teach-ins on racial justice issues. Still others may use their classrooms to create safe spaces for students to talk about race and share their experiences with racism.
No matter how it is implemented, teaching as protest is a powerful tool for challenging racism and promoting social justice. By raising awareness of racial injustice and empowering students to speak out against it, teachers can help to create a more just and equitable world.
