Abstract

I discuss White American students’ experiences of reading racism-themed young adult literature (YAL), addressing the issue of police brutality, and using the concept of intersectionality to promote social justice awareness. Based on analysis of their written reflections and classroom discussions, I argue reading racism-themed YAL with an intersectionality lens helped White American students complicate their understanding of the struggles and the resistance of youths of color at the present time. I share my instructional strategy for helping White students identify, analyze, and critique the work of power upon American youths.

从交叉性的视角解读种族主义主题的YAL：使社会正义思维复杂化

我讨论了美国白人学生阅读种族主义主题青年文学（YAL）、解决警察暴行问题以及利用交叉性概念提高社会正义意识的经历。基于对他们书面反思和课堂讨论的分析，我认为，用交叉性的视角阅读以种族主义为主题的YAL有助于美国白人学生使他们对当前有色人种青年的斗争和抵抗的理解复杂化。我分享了我的教学策略，帮助白人学生识别、分析和批评权力对美国年轻人的影响。
