Abstract
Synoptic judgment, understood as the act of seeing diverse perspectives, is presented as pedagogically useful to analyze and interpret racialized narrative in order to reveal and challenge racial injustice. Implications for classroom practice are offered as a means to assist adult educators and learners to meaningfully learn across racial boundaries while acknowledging the way in which power and privilege shape epistemology.

Synoptic judgment, understood as the act of seeing diverse perspectives, is presented as pedagogically useful to analyze and interpret racialized narrative in order to reveal and challenge racial injustice. Implications for classroom practice are offered as a means to assist adult educators and learners to meaningfully learn across racial boundaries while acknowledging the way in which power and privilege shape epistemology.
