For us, this book is a project of solidarity.  The artwork on the book cover is titled <em>Annihilation of the Blacks<\/em> (1986) by Fiona Foley. The artwork references a massacre that happened on Badtjala Country in Queensland, Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">This collection offers a unique exploration of critical racial literacy and anti- racist praxis in Australia&#8217;s educational landscape. Combining critical race and Indigenous theories and perspectives, contributors articulate a decolonial liberatory imperative for our times. In an age when &#8216;decolonization&#8217; has become a buzzword, the book demystifies &#8216;critical anti-racism praxis,&#8217; advocating for critical and multidisciplinary approaches. Educators from a range of disciplines including Law, Indigenous Studies, Health, Sociology, Policy and the Arts collectively share compelling stories of educating on race, racism and anti-racism, offering strategies that can be put into practice in classrooms, activism and structural reforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"328\" height=\"453\" src=\"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Critical-racial-and-decolonial-literacies-image.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Critical-racial-and-decolonial-literacies-image.jpg 328w, https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Critical-racial-and-decolonial-literacies-image-217x300.jpg 217w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 328px) 100vw, 328px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The book is due for publication by Bristol University Press in August 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See: <a href=\"https:\/\/bristoluniversitypress.co.uk\/critical-racial-and-decolonial-literacies\">https:\/\/bristoluniversitypress.co.uk\/critical-racial-and-decolonial-literacies<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This new book Critical Racial and Decolonial Literacies: Breaking the Silence was inspired by research conversations undertaken with scholars and educators of race, racism and&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/?p=96\">More&#8230;<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">New book &#8211; Critical Racial and Decolonial Literacies: Breaking the Silence.<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":121,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-96","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-critical-racial-literacy","ratio-natural","entry"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/BUP-Book-Cover-Cropped.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=96"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":207,"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/96\/revisions\/207"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/121"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=96"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=96"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/debbiebargallie.au\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=96"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
