Educational Necropolitics A Sonic Ethnography Of Everyday Racisms In U.S. Schools | Education

Scholars across fields of education have longstanding histories of critically considering the many ways that inequities in schooling are engendered and maintained and just as significantly how these forms of oppression might be resisted and refused. Drawing from these important dialogues Educational Necropolitics shares two years of stories sounds and powerful images collected through a sonic ethnographic study. What emerges from this work are the reverberations of how students in this context and more broadly how youth across the country often negotiate the intersections of race genders sexual orientations class and other parts of their complex identities in overwhelmingly white high school settings. This book examines what is produced in the wake of educational necropolitics-the capacity for schools to dictate to what degree minoritized students' ways of being can remain intact-and significantly it follows the daily lives of youth as they encounter forms of violence through what schools intend to teach what is left out what is learned through everyday interactions and what is valued through the broader emergent cultural contexts. This groundbreaking work includes interactive e-features that invite readers to travel and interact with participants of the study which utilizes deep listening in qualitative research and reflects the results of this sonic ethnography. A truly timely text for educators and administrators Educational Necropolitics provides an immersive experience in which leaders can address and correct systemic racist practices in the school setting by drawing directly from first-hand student experiences. |Educational Necropolitics A Sonic Ethnography of Everyday Racisms in U.S. Schools | Education
