This collection encourages history educators to extend their focus past conventional, inquiry-driven learning; to center the ways racially and ethnically marginalized communities preserve history; and to uphold Black, Latinx, Indigenous, Arab, and Asian American student knowledge in the classroom. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In these mind-expanding essays, contributors offer context and a theoretical framework for their proposed paradigm shift in social studies and history pedagogy. They invite educators to consider the full emotional complexity of humans throughout history to avoid teaching racialized emotions. And they demonstrate how non-traditional approaches to history such as storytelling, oral history, and testimonios, which are often linked to anticolonial practices, complicate dominant narratives and support both historical inquiry and healing. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Taken together, these essays show that approaches to history and ways of knowing practiced in historically marginalized communities are expansive, legitimate, community-oriented, and restorative. They call for educators committed to social justice to embrace racial and ethnic community knowledge in tandem with traditional, inquiry-driven history education to engage in more holistic, nuanced understandings of the past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maribel Santiago\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1682539644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781682539644\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harvard Education PR\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Maribel Santiago","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46451222872319,"sku":"9781682539644","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e663699-4d61-4a80-a719-7c39a7830c9b.jpg?v=1735876828","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/shifting-the-lens-in-history-maribel-santiago-9781682539644","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
