# Event Details - **Event Name**: REI Colloquium: How Schools Make Race: Teaching Latinx Racialization in USA - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 12 Feb, 2026 at 12:00 pm – Thu, 12 Feb, 2026 at 01:30 pm - **Event Description**: How Schools Make Race: Teaching Latinx Racialization in AmericaAbout this EventHow Schools Make Race shows how a Spanish-English bilingual-education program teaches—implicitly and explicitly—about race. It shows how the program’s practices, pedagogy, and policies construct the Latinx group as an example to illuminate the process through which schools unintentionally reinforce racial ideas and impede their anti-racist efforts. The book frames the program as a racial project and attends to how schools construct Latinidad in relation to Blackness, Indigeneity, Asianness, and Whiteness. Chávez-Moreno urges readers to reconceptualize Latinx as a racialized group and calls for ambitious teaching that rethinks race and works toward a critical racial consciousness education through considering racialization.Dr. Chávez-Moreno’s book, How Schools Make Race: Teaching Latinx Racialization in America, published by Harvard Education Press, won the 2025 American Association of Hispanics in Higher Education Early Career Book of the Year Award and a 2025 American Educational Studies Association Critics’ Choice Book Award. Her book has been featured in several podcasts and media, including the New Books Network and Latinx Talk.About the Speaker:Laura Chávez-Moreno, PhD, is an award-winning scholar, qualitative social scientist, and assistant professor in the Departments of Chicana/o & Central American Studies and Education at the University of California, Los Angeles.
