Sources will prove that independence, social linguistic diversity, and interplay through reconstructive cognitive methods. Whether in the categories ranged to Civil-Rights demonstrations or entertainment these various sources will divert mainstream, typical, and anti-progressive methods of regressed states of boredom and/or atypical statutes to power dynamics. Rather, these fundamental approaches to diverse representation make the solidified process of classroom engagement crucial to the upheaval and public domains of citizenship; common, civil law, and community structures to the discourse of its greater movement, to the world population-unreserved to the perspective.

This essay, for the UT forthcoming journal Freedom Schools, in association with Huston-Tillotson University, argues that if we, as a society, are again to progress toward fulfilling the promises of democracy as Martin Luther King described in the March on Washington, it is essential to revive a sense of our mission as a people full of sacred worth, with capacities and potentials to address our mounting problems. For that challenge we need to recall lessons from community and cultural organizing of the black freedom movement and the concept of “public love,” in King’s language agape, a distinctive treasure from the movement, which discerns and affirms the inviolable dignity, worth, and potential of every person. The potential and the dignity of the people came alive in the Rosenwald schools and libraries organized by a network called Jeanes Teachers, some of the most remarkable community organizers in American history, largely educated in HBCUs. This legacy and its vision needs to be put into conversation with community organizing today. The essay gives a short account of democratic pedagogical and nonviolent thought in HBCUs and the organizing work of Jeanes Teachers in thousands of Rosenwald schools and libraries during Jim Crow. It argues that, today, the coalition between Huston Tillotson and other Texas HBCUs and Central Valley Interfaith, an affiliate of the world’s largest community organizing network, Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF), creates “free spaces” where democratic learning can take place, people can develop civic agency, and a new, enlarged vision and sense of the potential of “we the people” can be reborn.

"What Better Tool Do I Have?": A Critical Race Approach to Teaching Civics2020 •
Black teachers have understood for centuries that whiteness is a requirement for full citizenship in the United States (Ladson-Billings, 1998). For this reason, Black teachers have historically taught Black students using emancipatory methods that centered their students’ race and aided their students in navigating a landscape wrought with overt individual, institutional, and structural racism (Scheurich & Young, 1997). This is also true of contemporary Black teachers, who understand that white supremacy is just as present as it ever has been. Using data from a larger study, this paper focuses on a Black civics teacher who used a critical race approach to structure the American Government course she taught primarily to Black students. Findings indicate that she rejected the notion of colorblindness in the law, worked to prepare her students for the racism they would experience, and incorporated students’ counterstories into her classes.

Critical Citizens: Teaching the Civil Rights Movement in Urban Schools2013 •
If teachers are to empower urban students to become critical citizens, they must reframe their presentation of the Civil Rights Movement and challenge students to think critically, ask questions, and “talk back.” These actions equip urban students to recognize the civil rights that are still not realized for all citizens. In this special feature article, we provide social studies teachers and teacher educators with a more complex narrative on present day civil rights issues. We ask that educators begin to extend their presentation of the Civil Rights Movement to include the rights of immigrants, LGBTQ communities, women, the poor, and students themselves. This could assist urban students in realizing their roles as citizens who can shape the future of America’s democracy.

Legacies of Racial Contention2017 •
This paper focuses on the ways in which past racial contention shapes possibilities for contemporary civic action focused on youth education. Drawing on the recently legislated Civil Rights/Human Rights Education curriculum in Mississippi—a state with an exceptionally charged history of racial contention—we identify barriers to curricular implementation in Mississippi public schools and draw on case studies of initiatives in two communities that have successfully overcome these barriers. Results emphasize how the legacies of civil rights era struggles interact with contemporary demographic and educational dynamics to enable two distinct forms of robust civic action. School-centered civic practice is enabled by communities characterized by strong civil rights organizing infrastructures, high levels of contention with White authorities throughout the civil rights era, and low participation in public schools by White families. Conversely, youth civic practice in communities marked by h...

DISCURSIVE INCARCERATION: BLACK FRAGILITY IN A DIVIDED PUBLIC SPHERE2022 •
The expression of fragility has always been a difficult and complex matter for African Americans, for the discourse of mainstream media is set up to both sustain and misrecognize their fragility. Even though the black public sphere split off from the dominant public sphere after the Civil War to enable distinctive forms of expression, the "practiced habits" of which Coates speaks continued working within the structures of the dominant discourse. My essay will analyze the structure of America's indifference to fragility in six parts. In the first section, I will introduce a normative problematic that can track how the hegemonic public sphere uses the rhetoric of formal equality to subordinate and silence African Americans speech, while also opening a space for black speech to be heard rather than dismissed. Sections two and three examine the historical separation of the black public sphere from the dominant public sphere, tracing the silencing structures that haunt us today back to the Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision of 1954, for this "progressive" decision provided a template for what can be said and cannot be said. The fourth section analyzes how Ralph Ellison thematizes and revises the encounter between the black and dominant public spheres. Sections five and six discuss the ways in which Ta-Nehisi Coates exposes the contemporary forms of these discursive structures that undermine progress toward equality and the resistance to such exposure in the media.
