In Between the Lines: Black and Brown Adolescents Creating a Homeplace Across School Settings Kaleb Germinaro 1 Abstract This study examined the identity resources available to Black and Brown students who play football across space in their school, and how the resources were used to navigate situations of race, racism and identity. Natural conversations and participant observations detailed experiences, identities, and resistance as they moved through spaces within their school environment. Sociocultural learning theories frame their experi- ences through composite space narratives. Reframing what constitutes learning, who’s considered an educator and what are considered educa- tional spaces is necessary. Findings provide implications for identities being supported across space and the role of football coaches in facilitating learning. Keywords race, identity, learning, space, coaching Schools serve as physical spaces where learning takes place. Schools also have a challenging time supporting the intersectional identities of students, specifically those who carry racialized intersectional identities. 1 Education, University of Washington, 2012 Skagit Lane, Seattle, Washington, United States Corresponding Author: Kaleb Germinaro, University of Washington, Education, 2012 Skagit Lane, Seattle, Washington, United States.
