商品描述

This edited book captures Asian American grassroot organizing in Georgia through counterstorytelling. Rooted in Critical Race Theory and traditions of narrative inquiry, counterstorytelling in educational research seeks to challenge dominant narratives by centering marginalized communities' experiences and perspectives as sources of valuable knowledge. By employing AsianCrit, global citizenship education, human rights, and liberatory postcolonial education as theoretical lenses, the editors of this book interrupt essentialized portrayals of Asian Americans by featuring stories of Asian American students, parents, and educators who are fighting for Asian American Studies and Ethnic Studies in K-12 schools in Georgia. Their stories capture common as well as divergent experiences of being Asian American in the South and illuminate possibilities, challenges, and complexity of grassroots organizing for Asian American studies and ethnic studies in the South.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本編輯過的書通過反敘事的方式,捕捉了喬治亞州亞裔美國人的基層組織活動。反敘事是建立在關鍵種族理論和敘事研究傳統基礎上的,旨在通過將邊緣化社群的經驗和觀點作為有價值的知識來挑戰主流敘事。本書的編輯們運用亞裔批判理論、全球公民教育、人權和解放性後殖民教育作為理論視角,打破了對亞裔美國人的本質化描繪,展示了在喬治亞州的K-12學校中,亞裔美國學生、家長和教育工作者為推動亞裔美國研究和民族研究而奮鬥的故事。他們的故事捕捉了在南方作為亞裔美國人的共同和不同經歷,並闡明了在南方進行基層組織活動以推動亞裔美國研究和民族研究所面臨的可能性、挑戰和複雜性。
