In the United States, higher rates of African Americans, Hispanics,
and Native Americans fail to graduate from high schools than
Caucasians. Adams and Buffington-Adams identify persistent,
institutional racism as the cause, and they stress the need for
teachers to acknowledge the limitations of their own cultural
lenses and to recognize the validity of others' views. Race and
Pedagogy provides a retrospective glance at the authors'
experiences within the Equity Group, an organization created to
provide teachers with the opportunity to talk about their own
racial, cultural, and language backgrounds in order to identify,
examine, and fix the failings of the current educational system.
Natural, relational, and sustainable approaches are recommended
which will enable educators to create classrooms and schools in
which all students, regardless of racial, ethnic, or linguistic
identity, are welcomed, challenged, treasured, and able to be
academically successful. Book recommended for scholars of education
and race studies, as well as practitioners.
