Caught between the stereotypes of the model minority and invisibleness, the authors narrate their triumphs, trials, and tribulations as social justice educators in US teacher education and allied fields. Their autoethnography-based narratives substantiate that a post-racial America is far from over. Stemming from their experiences in classrooms and the community, the authors offer usable strategies to educators and administrators, with the objective of creating a socially just society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eProfoundly startling are these humble, generous stories that reflect both universality and uniqueness in the journeys and lifework of scholars at the cutting edge of anti-oppressive education.
