      abstract = {We are living, learning, and teaching by questioning how  to address race in a society that consistently prefers to  see itself as colorblind, a society claiming to seek a  "post-racial" existence. This edited volume offers evidence  of the evolving significance of race from a diverse group  of male and female contributors self-identifying as Black,  Latino, Asian, White, Gay, Lesbian, Jewish, Christian, and  Muslim. Our attempts to provide every child and adult  learner with what they need (equity) to make the most of  their educational experiences (excellence) are still  consciously and unconsciously thwarted by the ingrained  nature of racism in our society. This becomes obvious when  we begin teaching those audiences that represent diverse  lived experiences of race about the changing significance  of race and how to develop a more critical, reflexive lens  focused upon the politics of race. The editors and  contributors to this book are finding empowering ways to  co-construct and implement a critical race pedagogy that  reflects both an acknowledgment of the evolving  significance of race and opportunities for hope via  education.},
