"Rethinking Ethnic Studies" wins 2019 GOLD WINNER, Foreword INDIES Awards

Congratulations to editors R. Tolteka Cuauhtin, Miguel Zavala​, Christine Sleeter​, and Wayne Au​ for receiving the 2019 GOLD WINNER, Foreword INDIES Award, education category, for their anthology titled "Rethinking Ethnic Studies."  

Dr. Emilio Zamora and I are proud to say that we have a piece in this volume titled, “Ethnic Studies and Community-Engaged Scholarship in Texas: The Weaving of a Broader ‘We.'” 

Many of these pieces work for both the high school and college classroom. Plus, they grow out of the Ethnic Studies Movement that has gained significant traction in recent years.  So happy for the editors, as well as all the contributors (see Table of Contents below).  

It was a lot of hard work, but it has all paid off.

Felicidades!
