Becoming an Antiracist Educator

Bol

Becoming an Antiracist Educator honours the enduring influence of Timothy J. Stanley, a visionary historian whose work has reshaped how racism, racialization, and historical consciousness are understood in Canada. This timely collection gathers scholars, teachers, and community advocates who reflect on how Stanley's scholarship and mentorship have challenged and guided their own commitments to antiracist education.Spanning generations and disciplinary backgrounds, the contributors offer deeply personal and politically grounded reflections that connect Stanley's insights to the pressing realities of our time. They engage questions raised by the toppling of colonial statues, the resurgence of anti-Asian racism, and the uncovering of unmarked graves at residential school sites. Together, they show that antiracist teaching is not only about critiquing systems, but about reimagining how we understand the past, how we tell our histories, and how we live with one another in the present.Concluding with a moving epilogue by Stanley, this collection speaks to educators, researchers, and community members seeking to confront racism in schools, museums, universities, and public life. It offers both a testament to his legacy and an invitation to carry that work forward with courage and care. Becoming an Antiracist Educator is an essential resource for educators, scholars, and community members committed to interrupting racism in schools, museums, universities, and beyond. It offers not only an archive of Stanley's impact but a roadmap for those seeking to carry his work forward in practical and transformative ways.
