Описание:
This book examines the struggle against racial and cultural inequity in educational systems, presenting the case study of a New Zealand school and its community’s determination to resist alienating environments. If we look at an untouched child’s coloring book, for instance, we think of the pages as blank. But they’re not actually blank – each page is uniformly white, with lines established to dictate where color is allowed to go. Children by this are taught about the place of color and the importance of staying within pre-determined boundaries and expectations, reinforcing a system where the white background is considered the norm. To challenge such whitestreaming, this book offers the example of a community that defied and rejected this environment in favor of a culturally-located, bilingual learning model of education based on secure cultural identity, stable positive relationships, and aroha (authentic caring and love). This journey is juxtaposed against pervasive deficit-driven, whitestream explanations of inequity and purported «achievement gaps» of indigenous M?ori and Pasifika students. This story chronicles the efforts of the Kia Aroha College community on its quest to step outside education’s «White spaces» to create a new space for learning and to reclaim educational sovereignty – where individuals have the absolute right to «be M?ori,» to be who they are, in school.

Описание: This volume does more than document an educational dynamic that impacts Latino populations across the United States; it also connects educational challenges to concrete plans for how those problems can be resolved. Both experienced and new scholars describe strategies and outline policies to support academic success, affirm identity and belonging, and show how educational institutions can be transformed to better serve Latino constituencies in a post-pandemic and post-Trump world. Examples from elementary education to higher education supply familiar points of entry, but also challenge readers to explore scenarios and strategies that they have not previously considered. Each chapter begins with empirical documentation of an educational problem involving Latino populations where their presence is relatively new, and goes on to outline how that problem can be resolved. The text includes depictions of thoughtful parent-teacher partnerships, what authentically welcoming college campuses might look like, how high school literature classes could include more Latino authors, and much more.Book Features:Includes detailed examples of practice to assist teachers and school leaders in restructuring their classrooms and programs to better serve Latino students.Describes settings and scenarios from across the United States that will be familiar to those teaching, leading, or preparing to do so.Focuses on the new diaspora as distinct from states with traditionally large Latino populations.Argues that lagging educational outcomes are not inevitable and that inclusion, engagement, and success are possible and worth striving for.Contributors include Vanessa Anthony-Stevens, Scott Beck, Lisa Dorner, Amanda Morales, Sophia Rodriguez, and Jessica Sierk.
