Talking Race In The Classroom

very good trade paperback. Lamination on back cover peeling

From Publisher:

This lively book will help new and veteran teachers develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to successfully address racial controversies in their classrooms. The author first explains what race and racism mean and why we need to talk about these topics in schools. Then, based on an in-depth study of a high school classroom, she shows what happened when teachers and students talked about race and racism in a history and language arts classroom. Throughout the book she guides teachers in ways to discuss important issues--from civil rights to institutional racism--that will ultimately help teachers and students to change school culture.

Features:

• Analysis of actual classroom dialogues, illustrating the often-rough conversations that teachers and students engage in while learning to talk constructively about race and racism.
• Useful questions, resources, and activities to help teachers get started.
• Ideas and strategies that teachers can use to get students to address race and racism critically in the classroom.
