Includes over 40 selections of classic articles, book excerpts, and research studies that have shaped the study of multicultural education and our contemporary understanding of it. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book includes a wide spectrum of persepctives on multicultural education and all of its complexities. It is a great sourcebook for pre-service teachers and teachers who want to develop a philosophical foundation for equitable schools. It is not a "how-to" book - it provides an overview of the literature on how race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, and gender intersect with educational systems. And, despite what another review writes, it is not a book set on chastising white males. Instead, it challenges the status quo to recognize the privileges that are associated with power.
