Book Description

This text presents 20 cases that address racism in one form or another, many from actual experience. The cases are grouped into sections on experiences with younger children, older elementary children, high school students, and in teacher education programs or student teaching situations. Each case begins with a description of a specific incident, followed by several responses (by teacher educators, teachers, student teachers, graduate students, and administrators from throughout the U.S.) and further questions for discussion. A short biography of each of the 64 respondents is also provided. Intended primarily for student teachers, novice teachers, and experienced teachers, but could be of use to non-teachers interested in a practical discussion of ways to address racism.
