Letter from the Editors In a time when nothing about our lives can be considered “normal,” teacher researchers in South Carolina have continued to do the important work of pursuing pedagogical practices that will help shape the future for all our students. On behalf of the South Carolina Council of Teachers of English, we are pleased to invite you to explore their work in this issue entitled, Language and Race Matters. The important work presented here invites us all to think about the ways we engage with students and use our classrooms to promote social justice and to value the experiences of all the students with whom we work. We hope the work of our colleagues around the state will encourage you to think more deeply about your practice and will start conversations that are needed now more than ever.
