Promoting Racial Literacy in Schools

Differences That Make a Difference
Howard C. Stevenson is a clinical and consulting psychologist and professor of education and Africana Studies and former chair of the Applied Psychology and Human Development Division in the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania.

New

Uncovers how racial stress undermines student achievement.

Based on extensive research, this provocative volume explores how schools are places where racial conflicts often remain hidden at the expense of a healthy school climate and the well-being of students of color. Most schools fail to act on racial microaggressions because the stress of negotiating such conflicts is extremely high due to fears of incompetence, public exposure, and accusation. Instead of facing these conflicts head on, schools perpetuate a set of avoidance or coping strategies. This much-needed book uncovers how racial stress undermines student achievement, and provides educators and social service support staff with workable strategies to improve their racial literacy skills.
Book Features: e Examples demonstrating workable solutions

relevant within predominantly White schools. e Measurable outcomes and strategies for developing racial literacy skills that can be integrated into the K12 curriculum and teacher professional development. e Teaching and leadership skills that will create a more tolerant and supportive school environment for all students.

Exposing Inequality in American High Schools

Peter W. Cookson Jr., is managing director of Education Sector in Washington, D.C., and teaches at Teachers College (Columbia University) and Georgetown University. He is president of Ideas without Borders, an educational consulting firm specializing in 21st-century education, technology, and human rights.

New

Cookson does a superb job of analyzing the powerful forces in our schools that reinforce the racial, ethnic, and social-class structures our nation hopes to overcome. He reminds us of what high schools can be, the great equalizers, institutions for promoting Americas finest values. David Berliner, Arizona State University

This highly readable and original book illuminates why we dont have open class warfare in our society, despite huge inequalities. Peter Cookson humanizes the abstract concept of social class, showing how schools reproduce classes through institutional practices that forge class-based consciousness. He also suggests how education might be changed. Caroline Hodges Persell, professor emerita of sociology, New York University In his groundbreaking study, Cookson demonstrates that adolescents undergo different class rites of passage depending on the social-class composition of the high school they attend. Drawing on stories of schools and individual students, this book shows that where a student goes to high school is a major influence on his or her social-class trajectory. This penetrating, original examination offers a compelling vision of an equitable system of schools based on the full democratic rights of students.

Foreword by Vivian M. Vasquez

If we wish to create an enlightened citizenry, critical literacy needs to begin on the very first day of the first year of schooling. Jerome C. Harste, professor emeritus, Indiana University This book shares the authors transformative journey as a literacy teacher/ researcher examining her experience as a White, middle-class female. Kuby argues that it is not enough for teachers to implement curricula and pedagogical strategies designed to foster inclusiveness. Instead, teachers must look inward, questioning their personal histories, biases, and beliefs in order to develop better self-awareness. In this book, Kuby reflects on how her self-interrogation shaped her interactions with 5- and 6-year-olds and influenced her critical literacy teaching.

Reading Like a Historian

For years, bands of educators have been trying to free history instruction from the mire of memorization and propel it instead with the kinds of inquiry that drive historians themselves. Now, the common-core standards may offer more impetus for districts and schools to adopt that brand of instruction.. . . The Reading Like a Historian program . . . is getting a new wave of attention as teachers adapt to the Common Core State Standards in English/language arts. Those guidelines, adopted by all but four states, demand that teachers of all subjects help students learn to master challenging nonfiction and build strong arguments based on evidence.

The text covers key moments in American history and includes primary documents, charts, graphic organizers, visual images, and political cartoons, as well as guidance for assessing students understanding of core historical ideas.

Multicultural Teaching in the Early Childhood Classroom The Wrong Kind of Different

Approaches, Strategies, and Tools, Preschool2nd Grade Mariana Souto-Manning This wide-ranging book escapes temporal, spatial, and disciplinary boundaries. Read it and reflect on how you can take it into your own life of learning.

Challenging the Meaning of Diversity in American Classrooms Antonia Randolph How can multiculturalism go wrong? Through extensive interviews conducted in a large Midwestern district, Antonia Randolph explores how teachers perceive students from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds and the unintended consequences of a kind of colorblind multiculturalism. She unearths a hierarchy of acceptance and legitimacy that excludes most poor Black students and favors certain immigrant minorities. This provocative book challenges readers to look beyond the surface benefits of diversity and raises issues about American schools that need to be addressed.
