Cancelled O My Body: Caribbean Teachers’ Experiences with Racism in ELT

Sat, Nov 13, 18:40-19:05 Asia/Tokyo

Location: Room 13

There is a paucity of scholarly work on Caribbean nationals in the TESOL fraternity. This presentation delves into lived experiences of racism of Anglophone Caribbean teachers on the TESOL job market using the lens of Critical Race Theory. The findings offer sobering insights into how our institutional and teaching practices are complicit in inflicting pain on those racialised as Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour.
