Editorial: Setting an agenda for justice and partnerships

[...]we offer implications informing partnerships at any and all stages through a critical examination of our language and policies. Existing partnerships and innovations toward equity in preservice teacher preparation, in-service teacher professionalization and early childhood and K-12 education MSI have much to offer and learn together through collaborative efforts and research aimed toward more equitable practices within partnerships, especially within preservice preparation, in-service teacher development and the experiences of children, families and communities in early childhood and K-12 schooling contexts. Some spaces where these collaborations have occurred or are occurring include the American Association of Colleges For Teacher Education (AACTE), the HBCU Faculty Development Network (HBCUFDN) and the Association of Teacher Educators (ATE). Critically, while there are many underpinning practices and opportunities that we share and can practice together, justice and equity require an underlying assumption that one size does not fit all.
