Book Subtitle | From Theory To Practice |
Book Description | This book combines theory, practice, and ethnography in an exploration of how teachers can fully implement diversity and antiracism as a foundation of their teaching approach. The author, a white mother of children of color, whose work is influenced by her own experience being raised in an antiracist, activist family, developed her curriculum over many years of active involvement with parents and teachers in schools. She presents her curriculum along with ethnographic reports of the processes of change that teachers experience as they fully explore the realities of race relations, its history, and the lived experiences of others. Kailin shows how immersion in this exploration enables teachers to develop curricula and teaching practices that are effectively antiracist and fully connected to students' lives. |
Editorial Review | The manner in which Julie Kailin analyses classroom observations, using an ethnographic methodology, is quite interesting. Any teacher can watch him/herself while teaching and become aware of implicit covert racism. This is the first step towards confronting racism in one's background and in one's backyard. - Intercultural Education |
