Uplifting Multiracial and Translingual Childhoods in the Envisioning of Anti-Racist Schooling: Reflections from Two MamiProfas

As mothers and education professors, we weave these two identities to reflect on the anti-racist K--12 schooling we envision and work toward for all children, including our own multilingual, multi-ethnic, and multi-racial children. We begin this article with a brief introduction to who we are as mothers, then shift to problematizing dominant school curricula and centering multiraciality and multilingualism as important elements in the lives of children. Lastly, we uplift culturally and linguistically relevant approaches to teaching and curriculum that can more fully honor and recognize students' bi/multilingualism and multiracial identities.
