Her research and writing have been published in the History of Education Quarterly, Teachers College Record, Anthropology News, Teaching Tolerance, and Education Week. Her forthcoming book from Oxford University Press investigates a little-known but tremendously important effort by America’s leading anthropologists to reform what they called “the ‘race’ concept” in U.S. public schools during World War II as a direct response to Nazi racism. Burkholder served as a Spencer Dissertation Fellow for Research Related to Education and a fellow at the Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History at Harvard University.
