There’s No Way for This to End Well: Lesson Planning, Neoliberalism, and Whiteness

The author relies on practices of storytelling to consider how an unexamined and evaluative preoccupation with lesson planning in education supports neoliberalism, affirms whiteness, and limits democratic curriculum and pedagogy. The author theorizes ways that striving toward a nonevaluative stance in education can be used to resist complying with neoliberalism and whiteness in education.
