Críticas:

"A very good book for teachers to put on their shelves. I recommend its use at the university level as a teaching tool as well."--Multicultural Review on the companion book "An intellectually rich conversation starter."--Sharon P. Robinson, President and CEO, American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education, on the companion book "A practical road map and an appeal to all teachers to re-dedicate themselves to ensuring that all students are prepared and can meet high educational standards."--Mary H. Futrell, Dean of the Graduate School of Education & Human Development, The George Washington University and former president of the National Education Association, on the companion book "Although the authors devote considerable attention to the problems that African American students suffer in schools, the essays also discuss the difficulties of Latino, Asian, and Native American students. Most important, the editors believe that their book offers a general prescription designed to improve education for all students. Recommended."--Choice "This book offers practical advice for teachers and administrators on ways to improve the education of students of color. Topics include recognizing white privilege, reforming multicultural education, confronting institutional racism, addressing the challenges of educating minority students in predominantly white schools, and forging alliances with students' parents and communities. The contributors stress that white teachers must avoid assuming that children of color do not possess the necessary skills, knowledge or desire to learn, emphasizing that low expectations are the worst form of racism."--Education Week
