Abstract

The evolution of social justice in teacher education spans from multicultural education, critical pedagogy, culturally relevant pedagogy to anti-racist pedagogy to address social inequities in P-12 schools. Further, at the core of creating equitable schools is how teachers and school leaders are developed in preparation programs. For the purpose of this chapter, we focus on teacher education programs given the persistent challenges of diversifying the profession and systemic inequities that continue to permeate within P-12 schools. The chapter traces the historical roots of integrating social justice in teacher education to current efforts in order to develop and nurture anti-racist teachers.
