This is not the Urban Cohort: A Performance Narrative in Four Acts

Abstract

  This performance narrative, and the analysis and implications that follow, was constructed from data collected during a year-long critical ethnography of foregrounding race and racism in a preservice literacy methods course. It was written as a medium to create anti-racist interventions within thirdspaces (Soja, 2010) in higher education classrooms, spaces where possibilities for understanding and changing the way race and racism shape and distort educational contexts can emerge
