This volume informs the reader about new teachers in urban
underserved schools and their development as teachers for social
equity. The accounts of five novice teachers who grew up outside
the communities in which they teach lead to chapters that contain
advice for teacher educators, future and current teachers, and
school leaders. These early career teachers learned much about
bridging the cultural divide between themselves and their students,
confronted and resolved big challenges that may immobilize some who
set out to teach in these communities. They brought to their
classrooms strong social justice orientations, including a moral
imperative to make a difference in the world, an awareness of
social and educational inequalities, and a strong sense of
responsibility to positively influence the life trajectories of
students in their charge. Their narratives offer insights on the
dispositions and contexts that will help early career teachers
survive and thrive and make a difference in their students' lives.
