What does it mean to lead while Black in America? How do Black
educators lead for equity to ensure a quality academic experience
for Black children when calls for equality are routinely
discredited in our post-racial context? Through this book, Floyd
Cobb passionately and honestly draws from his personal and
professional experiences to describe his path to accepting the
harsh realities of being an equity-minded Black leader in K-12
schools. Offered through the performance of autoethnography, Cobb
highlights and gives voice to the often-unacknowledged
vulnerability of equity-minded Black leaders who work in suburban
contexts. Using the era of the Obama presidency as the backdrop for
this work, Cobb illuminates the challenges and complexities of
advocating for marginalized children who come from a shared racial
heritage in a society that far too often are reluctant to accept
such efforts. Through Leading While Black, emerging and aspiring
Black leaders will be reminded that they are not alone in their
struggles, but must nonetheless persist if we are to do our part in
making education a better experience for our children.
