This academic year marks the tenth anniversary of the establishment of a five-year (bachelors and masters) urban teacher education program at a small, state institution in the northeast. This program was founded on the principles of social justice and decolonization with and through critical scholars such as Freire (1996), Gorski and Swalwell (2015), Delpit (2006), Ladson-Billings (2014), and Paris (2012) to name a few. We built this program with an unapologetic vision of building “social justice warriors” for education, but it was not lost on us that this sometimes seemed like a lofty goal within a Predominantly and Historically White Settler Institution, otherwise known as PWIs. This paper focuses on addressing the development of the urban teacher education program and some of the roadblocks and challenges of trying to decolonize the mind at a PWI. Lynnette and Tabitha, the lead developers and instructors of the program, discuss the advent of the program and the struggles to support and sustain a justice-oriented program within this space, while Mariah, Megan, Melissa (Mel), and Angelica are alumni spanning the last ten years and unpack their experiences of decolonization within the conceptual model of the program. We acknowledge that there are many voices left out of this conversation. However, we feel that the discussion presented is a fair representation of opinions, dispositions, and lessons learned, as we approach this “warts and all” conversation with a critical lens on the program.

为职前教师的思想去殖民化的希望与奋斗:城市教师教育计划的历史

本学年是东北一所小型国家机构开设为期五年的(学士和硕士)城市教师教育计划十周年。该计划建立在社会正义和非殖民化原则的基础上,与 Freire (1996)、Gorski 和 Swalwell (2015)、Delpit (2006)、Ladson-Billings (2014) 和 Paris (2012) 等批判学者合作并通过这些学者命名一些。我们以建立教育“社会正义战士”的无懈可击的愿景构建了这个计划,但我们并没有忘记,这有时在主要和历史悠久的白人定居者机构(也称为 PWI)中似乎是一个崇高的目标。本文侧重于解决城市教师教育计划的发展以及在 PWI 尝试实现思想非殖民化的一些障碍和挑战。该计划的主要开发人员和讲师 Lynnette 和 Tabitha 讨论了该计划的出现以及在该领域支持和维持以正义为导向的计划的努力,而 Mariah、Megan、Melissa (Mel) 和 Angelica 则是校友过去十年,并在该计划的概念模型中解开他们的非殖民化经验。我们承认,这次对话中遗漏了许多声音。然而,我们认为所提出的讨论是对意见、倾向和经验教训的公平代表,因为我们以对该计划的批判性视角来处理这种“所有问题”的对话。该计划的主要开发人员和讲师,讨论该计划的出现以及在该领域支持和维持以正义为导向的计划的努力,而 Mariah、Megan、Melissa (Mel) 和 Angelica 是过去十年的校友并在该计划的概念模型中解开他们的非殖民化经验。我们承认,这次对话中遗漏了许多声音。然而,我们认为所提出的讨论是对意见、倾向和经验教训的公平代表,因为我们以对该计划的批判性视角来处理这种“所有问题”的对话。该计划的主要开发人员和讲师,讨论该计划的出现以及在该领域支持和维持以正义为导向的计划的努力,而 Mariah、Megan、Melissa (Mel) 和 Angelica 是过去十年的校友并在该计划的概念模型中解开他们的非殖民化经验。我们承认,这次对话中遗漏了许多声音。然而,我们认为所提出的讨论是对意见、倾向和经验教训的公平代表,因为我们以对该计划的批判性视角来处理这种“所有问题”的对话。和 Angelica 是过去十年的校友,他们在该计划的概念模型中解开了他们的非殖民化经验。我们承认,这次对话中遗漏了许多声音。然而,我们认为所提出的讨论是对意见、倾向和经验教训的公平代表,因为我们以对该计划的批判性视角来处理这种“所有问题”的对话。和 Angelica 是过去十年的校友,他们在该计划的概念模型中解开了他们的非殖民化经验。我们承认,这次对话中遗漏了许多声音。然而,我们认为所提出的讨论是对意见、倾向和经验教训的公平代表,因为我们以对该计划的批判性视角来处理这种“所有问题”的对话。
