Rethinking Multicultural Education

Additional praise for Rethinking Multicultural Education

Hats off to Rethinking Schools for 25 years of positioning critical multiculturalism as the vehicle through which a more complete understanding of society may be nurtured and achieved.

—Angela Valenzuela, Professor, College of Education, University of Texas at Austin, author of Subtractive Schooling and Leaving Children Behind.

Rethinking Multicultural Education is an essential text as we name the schools we deserve, and struggle to bring them to life in classrooms across the land.

—William Ayers, teacher, activist, award-winning education writer, and professor at the University of Illinois, Chicago.

Rethinking Multicultural Education powerfully reminds us that any attempt at 'multicultural education' that fails to raise critical questions among students, teachers, and administrators about racial justice is inadequate to the needs of this time. It's an indispensable resource and a bracing call to action.

—Jeff Chang, author Can't Stop Won't Stop: A History of the Hip-Hop Generation.
