Our Promise: Achieving Educational Equality for America's Children: Selected Essays and Articles - Brossura
Sinossi
From the reauthorization and possible impending repeal of the No Child Left Behind Act in the next presidential administration, to the Supreme Court’s recent education pronouncements involving race in K-12 and higher education, to the mounting concerns regarding school finance and testing, education issues are making headlines around the country. This compendium of works by nationally distinguished contributors who hail from a broad variety of disciplines is a unique reader that explores educational law through the interrelated fields of “critical race education,” sociology, civil rights, pedagogical theory and law. This critical reader of scholarly articles, essays and critiques explores the intractable issues in the landscape of educational equality including school finance, special education, affirmative action, desegregation, curricular reform and bilingual education through the prism of race, ethnicity, language, disability, socioeconomic status, sex and gender. Contributors include William Kaplan, Preston Green, Bruce Baker, Angela Onwuachi Willig, Verna Williams, Victoria Dodd, Molly O’Brien and others, with a foreword by T.K. Daniels. Written by and for educators and policymakers, Our Promise is an ideal seminar text or companion piece for education, civil rights, sociology, economics and race oriented interdisciplinary courses. An indispensible classroom tool for comprehending policy discussions, Our Promise is also well suited for adoption in undergraduate and graduate education schools and public policy administration programs across the nation.
