- 요약We all have teachers in our lives, past or present, who have made an impact on our lives. Two teachers who changed my thinking, Dr. Gloria Ladson-Billings (2006) and Dr. Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz (2022) did so by suggesting researchers reconsider the educational achievement gap and consider the educational debt the United States owes Black and Brown people. This educational debt suggested by Ladson-Billings resonated beyond United States boundaries and informed my approach to this research. Using my transnational identity, I moved across the United States and Jamaican spaces to explore whether teachers can teach students how to dream. For context, I root this work in Marcus Garvey's (1937) and later Bob Marley's (1980) words, " Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none other than us can free our minds". To do this, Secondary English teachers in Jamaica and North Carolina participated in a literacies exploration designed to discuss what texts in and of their lives helped them think about expanding literacies to include emancipation literacies. Dr. Lorena German (2021) acknowledges that the strength of English Education classes lies in their capacity to teach real life. Emancipation literacies capture the essence of real life and recognize Black and Brown individuals' experiences, histories, and stories as assets to help them critically dream. Drawing data from semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, participation in school activities, revised and adapted lessons, journal entries, student artifacts, and meeting minutes, analysis of the data found four main themes. Findings suggest this study has the potential to contribute to education research in the African Diaspora surrounding dreaming, storytelling, counter storytelling, and trajectories in critical and reflective ways.
