Description

Ratchetdemic will inspire a new generation to be their authentic selves both within and beyond the classroom.GZA of the Wu-Tang ClanA revolutionary new educational model that encourages educators to provide spaces for students to display their academic brilliance without sacrificing their identitiesFrom the nationally renowned educator and New York Times best-selling author of For White Folks Who Teach in the Hood…and the Rest of Yall TooDr. Christopher Emdin advocates for a new kind of student identityone that bridges the seemingly disparate worlds of the ivory tower and the urban classroom.Because modern schooling often centers whiteness, Emdin argues, it dismisses ratchet identity (the embodying of negative characteristics associated with lowbrow culture, often thought to be possessed by people of a particular ethnic, racial, or socioeconomic status) as anti-intellectual and punishes young people for straying from these alleged academic norms, leaving young people in classrooms frustrated and uninspired. These deviations, Emdin explains, include so-called disruptive behavior and a celebration of hip-hop music and culture.Emdin argues that being ratchetdemic, or both ratchet and academic (like having rap battles about science, for example), can empower students to embrace themselves, their backgrounds, and their education as parts of a whole, not disparate identities. This means celebrating protest, disrupting the status quo, and reclaiming the genius of youth in the classroom.
