> III, Juanita Johnson- Bailey and Elizabeth Peterson, I am sending this



> request for chapter proposals for the book we are proposing entitled, 

> It's about

> Race: A Dialogue Among Adult Educators. The proposed date for

> While we believe that it is important to write about the effects of 

> race and racism, we also believe that it is important to engage in 

> dialogue about how these factors effect or might effect our teaching, 

> learning, scholarship, and work.  It's About Race: A Dialogue Among 

> Adult Educators attempts to provide authors - folks, engaged in 

> incorporating race and racism in their teaching and scholarship - with



> an opportunity to write a chapter and then engage in a dialogue about 

> their chapter with others.

>

> Over the course of the next year, as we engage in the development of 

> this book, we hope to model the difficult process of talking to peers 

> about the ways race, racism and white supremacy frames our identities 

> and practices as adult learners and adult educators.  So if your 

> chapter proposal is accepted for inclusion in this book you will need 

> to: 1) write a chapter; 2) engage in a dialogue with us and other 

> scholars who have been selected to write within a given section of the



> book and 3) upon completion of the dialogue, provide input into the 

> development of the final chapter within the given section of the book 

> that your chapter is written.

>

> The book comprises an introduction and conclusion to be written by the



> editorial collective and four main sections.  Attached is the 

> introduction to the book and three of the four sections that we would 

> like you to consider submitting a chapter proposal.  In addition to 

> submitting a chapter proposal, you will need to complete and submit 

> the attached warrant statement.  We believe that this book will have a



> significant impact on helping us uncover, discover and model 

> strategies and opportunities for people to engage in discourse about a



> topic which has heretofore been viewed as taboo in many educational 

> settings.

> The deadline for chapter proposal submission is Tuesday, October 31,
