N2 - The authors illuminate the process of preservice teacher learning about race through a narrativized case study of Michelle, a White elementary teacher. Michelle displayed elements of White resistance to race but also a desire to engage in teaching about race. When race is viewed as a threshold concept (Meyer & Land, 2006), Michelle's struggles with race highlight important considerations for teacher education.
