A new and timely collection compiled by one of America's most prominent urban educators. Young people and practicing teachers, poets and scholars, social critics and journalists offer unique takes on topics ranging from culturally relevant teaching and scripted curricula to the criminalisation of youth, gentrification and the inequities of school funding.
