Teachers, as often as students, articulate frustrations over each
other's choices and expectations. A teacher's demand for respect
may appear an imposition and abuse of authority to students
accustomed to speaking out against perceived injustices. All
teachers experience some tentativeness, especially in an unfamiliar
environment. Since classroom decisions tend to be immediate,
choices reflect learned attitudes and behaviors as much as logical
decision-making procedures. Florence explores the cross-cultural
complexities of teacher/student interactions, particularly African
immigrant teachers. Despite the emotional aggravations, cultural
misunderstandings offer forums for a reassessment of views,
acknowledgement of differences, and initiative for positive change.
