Abstract	Rooted in examples from their own and others' classrooms, the authors offer discipline-specific practices for implementing antiracist literature instruction in White-dominant schools. Each chapter explores a key dimension of antiracist literature teaching and learning, including designing literature-based units that emphasize racial literacy, selecting literature that highlights voices of color, analyzing Whiteness in canonical literature, examining texts through a critical race lens, managing challenges of race talk, and designing formative assessments for racial literacy and identity growth. The book features include: (1) Specific classroom scenarios and transcripts of race-related challenges that teachers will recognize to help situate suggested strategies; (2) Sample racial literacy objectives, questions, and assessments to guide unit instruction; (3) A literature-based unit that addresses societal racism in A Raisin in the Sun; (4) Assignments for exploring Whiteness in the teaching of "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn"; (5) Questions teachers can use to examine "To Kill a Mockingbird" through a critical race lens; (6) Techniques for managing difficult moments in whole group discussions; and (7) Collaborative glossary and exploratory essay assignments to build understanding of race-based concepts and racial identity development.
