Abstract
  • The term multiculturalism describes the presence or support of various cultures and ethnicities in our society (Oxford,2023c). The acceptance of multiculturalism has played a significant role in how we function in society. Historically multiculturalism has reshaped the legislation, population, and educational system in South Carolina. South Carolina was the last state in the nation forced to desegregate its public school system, in 1963, almost ten years after the Brown v. Board of Education decision (LDHI,2025). Currently South Carolina lawmakers passed bill H.3927, a controversial bill that targets state agencies and schools for any association with diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, training, or practices (Moore,2025). This study of ‘What Do Transformative Classroom Interactions Look Like? A Qualitative Case Study on Advocacy for Diversity Equity and Inclusion among South Carolina Elementary School Teachers “explores the characteristics of transformative interactions that focus on teacher advocacy and Diversity, Equity and inclusion in classroom settings. The purpose of this mixed method research study is to explore how teacher advocacy in diverse classroom settings promotes transformative learning experiences. This research will investigate challenges and barriers to learning in diverse classroom settings. The study seeks to address the critical gap in understanding how teacher advocacy initiatives for DEI create transformative learning in South Carolina elementary schools. This study was inspired by the need to understand how teachers can effectively advocate for DEI in classrooms, creating equitable learning outcomes for South Carolina students. [author supplied]
