Critical Race Theory in Mathematics Education brings together scholarship that uses critical race theory (CRT) to provide a comprehensive understanding of race, racism, social justice, and experiential knowledge of African Americans’ mathematics education. CRT has gained traction within the educational research sphere, and this book extends and applies this framework to chronicle the paths of mathematics educators who advance and use CRT. This edited collection brings together scholarship that addresses the racial challenges thrusted upon Black learners and the gatekeeping nature of the discipline of mathematics. Across the ten chapters, scholars expand the uses of CRT in mathematics education and share insights with stakeholders regarding the racialized experiences of mathematics students and educators. Collectively, the volume explains how researchers, practitioners, and policymakers can use CRT to examine issues of race, racism, and other forms of oppression in mathematics education for Black children and adults.
"This book addresses critical issues in mathematics education research by using mathematics as a context to foreground the racialized experiences of Black learners. The chapters in this book transcend traditional boundaries in mathematics education research by moving readers to "see" through a critical race theory lens on issues impacting the experiences of learners who are marginalized. Common to work arising from critical race theory, the contributors center race and racialization in their analysis of issues impacting mathematics teaching and learning."
—Dr. Robert Q. Berry, III, Professor of Mathematics Education, University of Virginia and President, National Council of Teachers of Mathematics
"This volume brings together critical education researchers across an array of research agendas who use CRT to challenge the current state of affairs in mathematics education. Education researchers and graduate students will be equipped with critical insights to use CRT more systematically to build race-related knowledge in the field."
—Dr. Ebony O. McGee, Association Professor of Diversity and STEM Education, Vanderbilt University
