Abstract:

Invites readers to undertake active leadership addressing equity in
their own contexts.
Aimed at educators and community members seeking to build an
anti-racist society, this book examines lived teaching and researching
experiences which illustrate and challenge the inequities that arise
in classrooms with diverse student bodies. The authors draw on the
constructs of intersectionality and complexity to examine complex
issues of race, language variety, religious practice, educational
background, social status, family relationships, institutional and
local context and historical memory.
Through honest and transparent reflection on actual experiences the
book invites readers to bravely acknowledge the political and
practical constraints they face, critically assess their own practice,
and from this develop authentic pedagogies and relevant practical
actions to better serve the communities within which they live and
work. Readers seeking to build an anti-racist society will benefit
from these inspirational narratives of courage in the face of
inequities in daily life, classrooms and communities.
