• Book chapter in Exploring Race in Predominantly White Classrooms: Scholars of Color Reflect

  Edited by George Yancy and Maria Davidson.

  This Bridge Called My Body: Talking Race through Embodying Difference

  How can multiculturalism go wrong? Through extensive interviews conducted in a large Midwestern district

  Antonia Randolph explores how teachers perceive students from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds and the unintended consequences of a kind of “colorblind multiculturalism.” She unearths a hierarchy of acceptance and legitimacy that excludes most poor Black students and favors certain immigrant minorities. In addition

  Randolph discovers how some teachers distinguish their support for certain forms of student diversity from curriculum diversity

  such as accommodating bilingual education

  which they find burdensome.
