White Teachers / Diverse Classrooms: A Guide to Building Inclusive Schools, Promoting High Expectations, and Eliminating Racism
by Julie Landsman & Chance W. Lewis (Eds.)
Stylus, 2006
This book, co-edited by EdChange's Julie Landsman, encourages reflection and self-examination, calls for understanding how students can achieve and expecting the most from them. It demonstrates what’s involved in recognizing often-unconscious biases, confronting institutional racism where it occurs, surmounting stereotyping, adopting culturally relevant teaching, connecting with parents and the community, and integrating diversity in all activities. White Teachers / Diverse Classrooms is replete with examples of practice and telling insights that will engage teachers in practice or in service. It should have a place in every classroom in colleges of education. Its empowering message applies not just to teachers of Black students, but illuminates teaching in every racially diverse setting. This edited volume contains chapters by EdChange team members Robert Simmons and Paul C. Gorski and is co-edited by Julie Landsman, a regular collaborator with EdChange.

Multicultural Education and the Internet: Intersections and Integrations (2nd edition)
by Paul C. Gorski
McGraw-Hill, 2004
In this book, Paul C. Gorski employs a critical multicultural education perspective for examining the potentials and dangers of the increasing use of computers and the Internet in education. Roughly half the book is dedicated to a deep exploration of ways in which these technologies, when used outside critical reflective practice can, and are, contributing to the inequities already present in our classrooms and schools. A new second chapter frames the digital divide in this context. The other half of the book describes ways in which these technologies can be used in pedagogically progressive ways consistent with multicultural education. The end of the book contains a guide to Web sites contributive to multicultural education theory and practice.

A White Teacher Talks about Race
by Julie Landsman
Rowman and Littlefield, 2000
Experienced teacher and Minneapolis writer Landsman here describes a typical day in an inner-city, alternative high school program. She discusses the daily trials and triumphs of her students, 75 percent or more of whom are not of European descent and many with family difficulties, children of their own to support, and daily confrontations with violence and racism. Through her experiences, Landsman portrays some of the practices that work with "nontraditional" students, such as having them write from different perspectives and offering more inclusive lessons about history, and she points out the flaws of current "one size fits all" approaches to education. This readable book conveys its message simply and powerfully.
