Threading his experiences both as a Texan student and later as a first-year teacher of predominately Muslim students at a Texas middle school, Holy American Burnout! weaves personal essay and cultural critique into the historical fabric of Black and biracial identity. Enfield intersects examinations of which voices are granted legitimacy by virtue of school curriculum, the complex relationship between basketball and education for Black and brown students, his students' burgeoning political consciousness during the 2016 presidential campaign, and cultural figures ranging from Kendrick Lamar to Hamlet. These classroom narratives weave around Enfield's own formative experiences contending with a conflicted biracial family lineage, reenacting the Middle Passage as the only Black student in his 7th grade history class, and moshing in both Christian and secular hardcore pits. As Enfield wrestles with the physical, mental, and emotional burdens that American society places on educators, students, and all relatively conscious minorities in this country, he reaches for an education that better navigates our burnt-out empire. 505 0 $a To pimp a mockingbird: a lesson plan -- Paper shackles -- Soung of the South, reprise -- Teacher, don't teach me nonsense -- Call me coach -- God is a moshpit -- All my niggas was white* -- To be (or not to be) in a rage almost all the time: an essay in five acts -- The drop off -- Do you commute? -- The day Prince died -- Campsite on troubled land -- The revolution will be revised -- Where were you when Frank Ocean returned? 941 $a 1 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20240202011530.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C43C4E8EC19811EE857C5B5120ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
