Beskrivning
This book offers an innovative approach to literacies research that blends community-, practitioner-, and arts-based research to unearth the genius and vision of Girls and Femmes of Color (GFOC) striving toward justice.The book explores the ways an arts collective of five GFOC self-named The Simmering Spices, envision and enacted educational justice through a praxis of collective radical curation in an arts- and community-based research project, ultimately creating a gallery exhibition of GFOC art exploring the theme of educational justice. Building from Feminist of Color approaches to literacies and knowledge making, the author offers an in-depth exploration of what she theorizes as collective radical curation, a pedagogical and research method that allows for collective knowledge making by taps into GFOC’s multiple raced and gendered literacies. The book provides a vivid picture of what this praxis can look like, tracing the pedagogy and research methods engaged by the Simmering Spices throughout their curatorial process. Furthermore, through an in-depth analysis of artwork, curatorial writing, and narratives across the project, a compelling vision of what GFOC need and desire when they envision educational freedom is painted for the reader.Collective Radical Curation in Literacy Education offers an interruption to pedagogical and research methods that refuse to understand GFOC as full, as multiliterate, as the knowers and creators of knowledge essential to our movement toward freedom.

"Collective Radical Curation in Literacy Education is a breathtaking work of art that reminds us that Girls and Femmes of Color are already theorists of freedom, curating justice through their lived brilliance. Their collective stories are rooted in place, relationship, art, laughter, and community. This book is a love letter to multiliteracies, to resistance, and to the sacred, creative work of discovering genius and becoming– together."- Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz, Ph.D., Professor, Teachers College, Columbia University, Author, Archaeology of Self: The Introspective Educator’s Guide to Racial Literacy, and Love from the Vortex & Other Poems"There is much at stake when girls’ and femmes’ expressive culture, artistry, and creativity is dismissed or wrongly interpreted. Collective Radical Curation in Literacy Education showcases the radical imaginations of adolescent girls and femmes with loving attentiveness to collaboration and praxis. Because Grace Player gets it right, so too, will the reader."- Ruth Nicole Brown, Ph.D., MSU Foundation Professor and Chair, African American and African Studies, Michigan State University"This beautiful scholarly book invites us into an educational space where youth bring their fully embodied artistic, intellectual, cultural and affective selves to the process of building more just worlds. It will inspire generations of teachers, students, and researchers who are committed to authentic relational learning and creative inquiry in these alienating times. Grace Player and the Simmering Spices have gifted the field with an instant classic."- Gerald Campano, Ph.D., Professor, University of Pennsylvania
