Dr. Motha discusses her book, Race, Empire, and English Language Teaching: Creating Responsible and Ethical Anti-Racist Practice. Published by Teachers College Press, the book is a 2015 Critics Choice Award winner as recognized by the American Educational Studies Association (AESA).
Race, Empire, and English Language Teaching is a timely and critical look at the teaching of English. The book shows how language is used to create hierarchies of cultural privilege in public schools across the United States. Drawing on the work of four ESL teachers who pursued anti-racist pedagogical practices during their first year of teaching, the author provides a compelling account of how new teachers might gain agency for culturally responsive teaching in spite of school cultures that often discourage such approaches. She combines current research and original analyses to shed light on real classroom situations faced by teachers of linguistically diverse populations.
