Stuart Greene and Dawn Abt-Perkins
Making Race Visible:  Literacy Research for Cultural Understanding
Teachers College Press, 2003

This volume opens new territory on a critical but rarely addressed topic--the intersection of race with literacy research and practice.  Grounded in classroom experiences, this volume shows how race is constructed through literacy instruction and how adopting a "colorblind" stance serves to maintain a system of racism that is pervasive in and out of schools.		 image
