Diversifying the Teacher Workforce critically examines efforts
to diversify the teaching force and narrow the demographic gap
between who teaches and who populates U.S. classrooms. While the
demographic gap is often invoked to provide a needed rationale for
preparing all teachers, and especially White teachers, to work with
students of color, it is far less often invoked in an effort to
examine why the teaching force remains predominantly White in the
first place. Based on work the National Association for
Multicultural Education is engaged in on this phenomenon, this
edited collection brings together leading scholars to look closely
at this problem. They examine why the teaching force is
predominantly White from historical as well as contemporary
perspectives, showcase and report available data on a variety of
ways this problem is being tackled at the pre-service and teacher
credentialing levels, and examine how a diverse and high-quality
teaching force can be retained and thrive. This book is an
essential resource for any educator interested in exploring race
within the context of today s urban schools."
