Issues tied to race and culture continue to be a part of the
landscape of America's schools and classrooms. Given the rapid
demographic transformation in the nation's states, cities,
counties, and schools, it is essential that all school personnel
acquire the necessary knowledge, skills, and dispositions to talk,
teach, and think across racial and cultural differences. The second
edition of Howard's bestseller has been updated to take a deeper
look at how schools must be prepared to respond to disparate
outcomes among students of color. Tyrone Howard draws on
theoretical constructs tied to race and racism, culture and
opportunity gaps to address pressing issues stemming from the
chronic inequalities that remain prevalent in many schools across
the country. This time-honored text will help educators at all
levels respond with greater conviction and clarity on how to create
more equitable, inclusive, and democratic schools as sites for
teaching and learning. The New Edition: Addresses changing ethnic
and racial demographics in U.S. schools and communities. Identifies
core gaps in academic outcomes across racial and ethnic lines.
Addresses potential root causes of academic disparities. Offers
recommendations for addressing disparities in outcomes. Provides
in-depth analysis on the salience of race and racism in U.S.
schools. Includes strategies to help school leaders create more
equitable schools. Identifies innovative programs with
evidence-based results on eliminating disparities.
