  • Description

    ”For educators and policymakers who are passionate about social justice in public schools, Teel and Obidah have given us a valuable gift: real people, real stories, real data, real strategies. Providing an inspiring and practical tool for engaging in successful, meaningful education with K-12 students of color, the stellar group of contributors offers concrete ideas and advice on what educators can do to support teachers to become more racially and culturally competent, multiple perspectives providing a variety of new insights on current research and practice, and honest and thought-provoking personal narratives on race and schooling.
