“Courage powered the leadership of those who contributed to this important collection of perspectives. That courage advances the change that will impact the cultural responsiveness required to be heard and to be seen in order to promote equality, strengthen our shared knowledge and eliminate the attitudes and beliefs that are barriers to success. The authors show us the power of courage and provide examples of how we can influence change.”
