You can cast and concentrate on spells while raging, as long as the spell's casting time is no more than an action. Whenever you cast a spell you forgo the damage resistances granted to you by the rage ability until the end of your next turn. and you can perform the somatic components of spells even when you have weapons or a shield in one or both hands. Additionally, your learning to reconcile your inner fury with your arcane might gives you the following benefits while raging:

As Well as granting other creatures advantage on spell attack rolls against you.

Brutal Spellcasting

Additionally, if you cast a spell that forces another creature to make a saving throw, and the creature rolls a 1 on its saving throw, it counts as a critical hit with a spell attack for the sake of your Brutal Critical feature. You however only add your extra dice granted to you by the Brutal Critical feature, you do not double your damage dies.
