This book has gone to great lengths to reveal, through research and
practice, the possibilities of addressing and reducing racist
practices in our schools. It features an Antiracist Education
Teacher Study that assisted in providing baseline figures of
teacher perceptions of racism, and demonstrated how teachers can
successfully implement antiracist concepts in their classrooms.
Findings further indicate that such teacher involvement makes a
difference in student acceptance and attitude. As teachers display
enthusiasm for teaching their subject areas multiculturally, and
having an intolerance for racist behavior, many students have shown
greater respect and appreciation for their teachers who are willing
to expose life's realities. Educators in the Teacher Study became
role models for their students. This role modeling empowered
students in positive ways to address issues of racism from the
student perspective. Dr. Donaldson also focuses on shattering the
denial of teachers who doubt the existence of racism in schools and
who question how student learning is adversely affected by racism.
She uncovers the difficulty teachers have with coming to grips with
the realities of racism. In light of these difficulties, those who
endured became empowered to become better teachers.
