The (mostly) unspoken belief about black students [re: the black-white gap in student achievement] is tied to broader perceptions about black people. So what can we as educators do about that? Principals and teachers: The worst images of black culture have been manufactured and placed in broad circulation. As an antidote, educators must find, consciously elevate, and celebrate the best of black culture in schools and classroom. When schools put the best of black culture in broad circulation (through serious and ubiquitous curricular content and instructional materials), black students experience identity restoration, and all students learn meaningful cultural appreciation. #honoringallchildren #diversity bit.ly/1959Qoo
