| Abstract | "In times of social disruption and uncertainty, we must return to our core values and remember why we entered education in the first place: to make a difference in the lives of all children. Cultural Proficiency can provide us with essential tools for acting on the promise of American public schooling. The Cultural Proficiency Manifesto places today's political divisiveness in the context of greater historical change and provides a road map to interrupting the cycle of hostility toward marginalized groups."--Book cover. |
