African American educators shaped a role for themselves in the
larger civil rights movement by striving for inclusion, on equal
footing, in the National Education Association (NEA). This book
explores the relationship between the NEA, the nation’s largest
teacher organization, and the predominately black American Teachers
Association, and illustrates how African American educators helped
to redefine the NEA’s core ideology to include the support of
policies, practice, and politics that promoted educational equity
for children and educators who have been historically marginalized.
Examining heated debates in African American communities and in the
NEA, and the immediate and long-term effects of inclusion on
educators and public school children, this book reveals teacher
associations as something more than labor unions and educators as
activists for educational equity, while it documents the perils,
disappointments, and advantages of professional cohesion. The
book’s documentation of leadership in particularly challenging
settings fills a void in literature for teacher preparation and
educational leadership programs.
