    1. “Whether Mr Mutt with his own hands made the fountain or not has no importance. He CHOSE it. He took an ordinary article of life, placed it so that its useful significance disappeared under the new title and point of view—created a new thought for that object.”

    1. (a) illustrating an ethic of care from the onset and working tocreate a welcoming and affirming classroom climate; (b) proactively addressingpotential concerns by reminding students of course assignments, regularly checkingon students’progress in the course, and proactively engaging students in conversa-tions; (c) listening to concerns brought forth by students; and (d) continually encour-aging students to meet their academic potential.

      these all seem like things we should be doing anyways.

    2. faculty must seek outconnections with Black males and provide them with academic support, even in situ-ations where the students do not ask for help.

      responsibility to create engagement

    3. this approach to teacher–student interaction required him to“humble”himself and show teachers that he was dedicated to becoming a better stu-dent.

      how to design interactions that don't require students to be "humble"

    4. he efforts ofstudents to seek out supplemental support from others, as articulated by students inthis study, are motivated by feelings of marginalization in the classroom and percep-tions that others perceive them as inferior.

      student-to-student is a more comfortable help structure for some student

    1. but that alone does not necessarily affect an interruption of the desire for innocence that underlies those moves in the first place.

      People want to be good and for their work to be meaningful. Re-framing our understanding of the institution of higher ed and its history threatens our sense of ourselves as good people who are doing good work. Identity threats are really difficult to engage with. I think in many cases, white faculty need a means of taking action to keep considering their work powerful and meaningful--I think the desire for the "moves to innocence" can be leveraged as a powerful agent for system change in some cases.

    2. Deeming alternatives unrealistic:

      I have definitely felt that my knowledge of the bureaucratic systems of the CCCs and familiarity with the difficulty of change has made me more dismissive of change efforts. I have to really stop myself from immediately going to all of the reasons that something won't work and listen to the ideas and spirit behind suggestions of alternatives.

      I think bureaucracy is responsible for a lot of the ennui that props up current unjust systems--this book really challenged me over the break to conceive of bureaucracy differently: The Utopia of Rules by David Graeber

    3. This latter set of accounts suggests that the inequities and injustices of the present are not entirely novel, but rather are the legacy and continuation of a higher education system whose foundations have been deeply entangled with the logics, relations, and infrastructures of racial-colonial capitalism since its begin-nings.

      Problems currently facing college students are relics of how the systems evolved, not new problems.
