Abstract:	In Why They Hate Us: How Racist Rhetoric Impacts Education, Huber and Muñoz provide a critical analysis of the many ways that racist nativism is embedded into educational policy and practice across the P-20 spectrum. The authors included in this edited volume use varying approaches to educational research to detail the specific manifestations of racist nativism, making this text a useful tool both in terms of content and research methodology. As racist nativism remains an endemic feature of American society, Why They Hate Us encourages readers to continue to engage in critical research that exposes the pervasive nature of this phenomenon, while also highlighting the hopes, joys, and dreams inherently embedded within immigrant communities of color. Rather than solely focusing on narratives of victimization, this text challenges readers to believe in the possibilities for resistance, while collectively working toward a more just and equitable future.
