| Abstract | This article examines the philosophical puzzle of how to create inclusive classrooms that combat racism and advance racial justice. The author argues that the U.S. is a white supremacist culture, which causes exclusion of students of color. Teachers must be sensitive to institutionalized racism and make efforts to foster inclusion, such as diversifying course content and authors. However, inclusion of students of color risks excluding white students who must confront their own privilege and biases. The author contends both goals can align by facilitating spaces for personal reflection alongside validating marginalized voices. This facilitates social change starting with individual awareness. Overall, extending commitments to combat racism is philosophically consistent with ordinary inclusion. Achieving this inclusive classroom ideal enables teachers to model a just society.
