Abstract
The purpose of this project was to examine the tensions experienced by university professors in teacher preparation programs among following their campus Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies which may be in direct conflict with their state Educational Gag Orders (EGO). This project was directed through a social justice framework as it applies to education through the lens of Critical Race theory (CRT). This study investigated the contradictory nature of how professors in teacher preparation programs teach about diversity while negotiating the state EGO’s. The consequences for being denied an understanding of diversity, equity, and inclusion would be profound for the next generation of classroom educators.
