Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies Series

Series Editor: Django Paris

The overarching purpose of the Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies Series (CSP Series) is to offer preparing and practicing educators, graduate students, and scholars with a comprehensive series of books dedicated to educational settings engaged in sustaining Indigenous, Black, Latinx, Asian and Pacific Islander young people, families, and communities as these memberships necessarily intersect with gender and sexuality, with dis/ability, with migration, with language, with land, with class and more. The CSP Series will be defined by its coherent focus on the strengths and wisdom of young people, families, elders, communities and educators who use education—in Pre-K through college classrooms, across content areas, in community organizations, and in peer and family settings—as a tool of positive social transformation and revitalization.

Django Paris is the James A. and Cherry A. Banks Professor of Multicultural Education and director of the Banks Center for Educational Justice at the University of Washington. His research and teaching focus on understanding and sustaining languages, literacies, and lifeways among youth of color in the context of demographic and social change. Along with H. Samy Alim, he is the coeditor of Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies: Teaching and Learning for Justice in a Changing World.
