Title: Reframing teacher emotion: Care as racialized,
critical, and spiritual practice
Abstract: This presentation examines teacher care as a
racialized, critical, and spiritual emotion and classroom practice. Models of
teacher care will be presented and problematized illustrating how current white
feminist and black feminist theories overlook the spiritual aspect
of teacher care and its relation to social justice work when engaging with
students whose social and cultural identities and histories differ from our
own. This work draws from Dillard’s (2012) endarkened epistemology and Brooke
Harris Garad’s (2013) model of spiritually-centered caring.
Date: 18th July 2013
Time: 4:30 to 5:30
Venue: Conference Hall, ground floor, KU School of Educaiton, Balkumari Lalitpur.
