Drawing from a critical case study of K-3 teachers who used Pro-Black teaching in their daily instruction, this important book puts forth positive perspectives regarding Blackness and Black people that are not evident in most educational settings. An easy-to-understand text provides evidence-based curriculum examples, pedagogies, and resources; demonstrates how teachers can achieve Pro-Black teaching while also addressing curricular standards and other demands on their time; and explains the benefit of Pro-Black teaching for \u003cem\u003eall\u003c\/em\u003e children. The authors draw from decades of practice and research by Black scholars (e.g., Asa Hilliard, Janice Hale, Amos Wilson) to position racial identities as a key part of Black children's development. They center African diaspora literacy as a Pro-Black pedagogy to ensure that Black children are competent in their own culture as well as in global cultures. \u003cem\u003ePro-Blackness in Early Childhood Education\u003c\/em\u003e celebrates the agency, resistance, everyday lives, and joy of Black people. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDemonstrates how Pro-Blackness can be used to interrupt ethnocide practices that threaten Black children's culture and spirits. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides guidance for implementing and sustaining Pro-Black instruction, with accessible examples of curriculum and instruction. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFocuses on Pro-Blackness rather than anti-Blackness.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes examples of K-3 lessons from Drs.
