In this CoLab, author Ebony Elizabeth Thomas is joined by colleagues Christina Cantrill, Joe Dillon, and Remi Kalir to discuss her article “‘We Always Talk About Race’: Navigating Race Talk Dilemmas in the Teaching of Literature” which was published in Research in the Teaching of English in May 2015.

This article is the featured article for May 2021 in the LEARN: Marginal Syllabus and will be available throughout the month alongside a curated set of online annotations using Hypothes.is. Viewers are invited to listen to or watch the CoLab discussion, socially read the article alongside colleagues, and if interested, join the discussion.

LEARN is a collaborative project of the National Writing Project (NWP), the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), and the Marginal Syllabus team, with the support of Hypothesis.
