The Promise of Youth Anti-Citizenship: Race and Revolt in Education is a hardcover All Books title by Kevin L Clay; Kevin Lawrence Henry, listed as sku-5072332085. Its contributors argue that Black youth and other poor youth of color are cast as anti-citizens and excluded from the social, political, and economic mainstream of American life.

They examine anti-citizenship as a collective practice through which youth challenge racial capitalism, antiblackness, coercive patriotism, cultural imperialism, and predatory capitalism. Chapters address Black youth in post-Katrina New Orleans charter schools; Salvadoran migration to South Central Los Angeles in the 1980s, racial capitalism, and the queering of ethnicity; and classroom decolonization through Palestinian liberation narratives.

The collection uses a range of methods and concepts to consider resistance and refusal.
