The Anti-Racist Writing Workshop: How to Decolonize the Creative Classroom

Through memoir and progressive teaching strategies, award-winning educator Felicia Rose Chavez demonstrates how to be culturally attuned, twenty-first century educators. A call to create healthy, sustainable, and empowering classroom communities, The Anti-Racist Writing Workshop exposes the invisible politics of power and privilege that have silenced writers of color for far too long. It’s more urgent than ever that we consciously work against traditions of dominance in the classroom, deconstruct our biases to achieve a cultural shift in perspective, create safe spaces for creative concentration, encourage students of color to best empower them to exercise voice and self-advocate as responsible citizens in a globalized community. For anyone looking to liberate their thinking comes this compelling guidebook on a necessary step forward.
