Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Practical, research-backed guidance for K-12 educators who are still committed to racial justice and equity work in schools. In unjust times, it's tempting to shrink your vision to fit the moment, but that would mean giving students less than they deserve. A commitment to racially just schools is about persistence in principle and creativity in practice. In Still Committed, Terrance L. Green offers guidance for educators working together to advance equity in schools, whether they are part of formally recognized equity teams, groups with a different name, or informal gatherings around a table. The approach Green lays out goes beyond shallow professional development and actionless conversations. He explains how to use his 5D Framework for Equity Action-short for discern, dream, design, do, diagnose-to figure out where your school is now, imagine something better, and make it a reality. School and district leaders and teacher teams will learn how to do the following: - - Uncover root causes and move beyond surface fixes. - Keep equity language both courageous and actionable in politically charged times.- Identify toxic elements and turn setbacks into opportunities. - Envision and design equity efforts. - Maintain accountability during implementation. You'll also get a collection of practical tools that you can adapt to your setting and reflective questions for both individuals and teams to help you apply what you are learning to everyday practice.When educators work together, even in small groups, they can withstand opposition, generate innovative solutions, and push schools and districts to transform in ways that no single person could achieve. Still Committed offers the way forward for those who refuse to give up the fight for what's right.
