Contents:
The German school system selects students not only along criteria of achievement but also along race in an irritatingly stable manner. In our seminar we want to investigate the absence of „race“ in German discourses on Bildung. Taking on this subject in English, we will investigate different traditions of Critical Race Theory, comparing German disciplinary discourses with those in the United States and Great Britain, as these countries stand for examples holding on to longer traditions of Critical Race and Critical Whiteness Theories. With its thematic involvement the seminar aims at developing political literacy for teacher students, which we regard as an essential skill for future teachers in order to be change agents for a more democratic school, while we are explicitly open to students of all disciplines including incoming students.
