Item Faith of the Dark Past and Hope for the Present: Black History Education and the Teaching of Historical Truth(Taylor & Francis, 2025) Lewis, Terrance J.; Tirado, Jesús A.This Black archival review used Black historical consciousness (King, 2020) as a conceptual framing and Black archival practice (Sutherland & Collier, 2022) as qualitative methodology to examine the early formation of formal Black history education to address contemporary movements surrounding the censorship and restriction on teaching race and historical truth. We conclude with a call to remember that Black historical consciousness continues to provide a roadmap to navigate all contemporary and future threats to American democracy.Item I Don’t Feel Noways Tired: Why Black Teachers Will Persevere through the Anti-Truth Movement(Institute for Critical Education Studies, 2025) Duncan, Kristen E.; Chisholm, Alex E.; Lewis, Terrance J.The current anti-truth context, in which discussions of race and racism in K-12 schools are rendered illegal, is just the latest iteration of anti-Black legislation that impacts schools. In this article, we historicize the contemporary moment by using BlackCrit and fugitive pedagogies to discuss how Black teachers have navigated discussions of race and racism with Black students through previous anti-Black contexts, noting that we believe contemporary Black teachers will continue in this rich tradition, despite current legislation.
