This is an examination of social justice advocacy strategies through the lens of an interdisciplinary critical race feminist theoretical and methodological framework that integrates the disciplines of education, law, sociology, political science, history, and communication studies with the qualitative methodological tool of discourse analysis. Critical Race, Feminism, and Education: A Social Justice Model provides a transformative next step in the evolution of critical race and Black feminist scholarship. Focusing on praxis, the relationship between the construction of race, class, and gender categories and social justice outcomes is analyzed. An applied transdisciplinary model - integrating law, sociology, history, and social movement theory - demonstrates how marginalized groups are oppressed by ideologies of power and privilege in the legal system, the education system, and the media. Pratt-Clarke documents the effects of racism, patriarchy, classism, and nationalism on Black females and males in the single-sex school debate.
