Vardagsrasism i förskolan : En studie om hur vardagsrasism uttrycks i förskolemiljö

Sammanfattning: The purpose of this study is to examine how everyday racism is expressed in preschool by analyzing how teachers in preschool discuss “race” and ethnic discrimination that occurs in children's lives at preschool. The preschool must follow Lpfö 18 which gives teachers direction on how to work against racism and is obligated by law to base its operations on it (Skolverket, 2018).  The study's questions highlight preschool teachers´s view of their work in promoting the equal value of all children. The study is based on intersectionality as a form of analysis (Mattsson, 2015) and critically examines how power structure, social construction, and categorization affect how people relate to each other. The essay uses a qualitative approach, where preschool teachers who work in preschool are interviewed with a semi-structured approach. Digital recording documents the interviews and is presented anonymously.  The results highlight how preschool teachers make discrimination that occurs in children's everyday lives at preschool visible. The study contributes to an increased understanding of inequality that affects everyone in the preschool environment and how that impact can create insecurity in those who are exposed to discrimination.
