This book addresses the gap in our historical knowledge about the roles Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander teachers have played in Australia's history of school education. To date, there are few references to schooling in histories of Indigenous Australians, and Australian histories of Indigenous education and teacher education omit Indigenous teachers until systemic initiatives were introduced to recruit and qualify them in the 1970s. This book reinstates and honours Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who worked as school teachers from invasion to contemporary state school systems.The book is structured chronologically to explore Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander teachers lives and work in relation to settler colonial policies of segregation and protection, assimilation and self-determination; and education policy and practice. The chapters span the late nineteenth century to contemporary times and show the systemic challenges Indigenous people faced in becoming qualified teachers and joining the profession. Stories of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander teachers from different geographic regions, communities and historical periods foreground their agency including their political activism and take account of localised cultural and education contexts.This insightful book is recommended for upper-level undergraduates and academics in Indigenous education, history of education, teacher education and teachers work. It will also appeal to readers with a general interest in Australian Indigenous history.

Tracing the material and intellectual development of one of the nation's leading law schools Over two centuries, UVA Law evolved from a regional, segregated law school into a nationally recognized leader in legal education. As this collection highlights, its changing curriculum - always in conversation with broader historical, cultural, and social forces - proved crucial to this profound transformation. Initially shaped by white Southern perspectives on race, gender, and states' rights, UVA Law grew beyond its early identity through the inclusion of new voices in both its faculty and its student body. By examining the complex interplay between the school's institutional mission, its educational program, and its social context, the contributors offer a comprehensive view of how UVA Law has adapted to meet the demands of legal education in a changing world.

Protest and Pedagogy traces how, and in what ways, high school teachers and students sustained and propelled the Black freedom struggle in Charlottesville, Virginia. It centers the relationship between protest and pedagogy within classrooms and the surrounding community of Charlottesville. The story spotlights the resistance of Black teachers and students in the American high school throughout the nation during the twentieth century. Rather than act simply as passive participants in the Black freedom struggle-or outright opponents-Black high school teachers, and their students, this book argues, employed a variety of organizing and protest strategies to make schools and communities more just and equitable spaces. Black teachers' pedagogical approaches in the classroom underpinned protest within and beyond schools. At the same time, Black teacher and student organizing, activism, and protest led to pedagogical reforms in classrooms and schools.
