We Can′t Lead Where We Won′t Go: An Educator′s Guide to Equity - Tapa blanda

"Gary Howard has once again brought clarity and humanity to the work of improving schools for students of all backgrounds, not just for the most privileged. Although the majority of school reform efforts are devised by those outside schools who know little about public education – policymakers, politicians, business people, and philanthropists – those who suffer the consequences of current toxic reforms are principals, teachers, and students. This book, focusing instead on inclusion, equity, and excellence, is a principled guide for creating a more hopeful and socially just vision, one school at a time." (Sonia Nieto, Professor Emerita, Language, Literacy, and Culture 2014-07-07)

"Hats off to Gary Howard. He has written and organized in one much needed volume thoughtful tested activities for successful professional development for equity." (Carl A. Grant, Hoefs Bascom Professor)

This powerful professional development program features a leader’s guide to re-engaging educators in the real work of improving their schools, particularly in those settings with a high percentage of our nation’s most marginalized students, along with an original video series hosted by master educator and best-selling author Gary Howard. Implemented in hundreds of districts, this proven approach to cultural competence and culturally responsive teaching supports school leaders and their faculties in an examination of their actual practices.
