Public School Equity by Manya Whitaker

Public School Equity by Manya Whitaker

Drawing on more than forty interviews with teachers, principals, and district leaders, Manya C. Whitaker offers educators guidance for leading a school or district grounded in social justice that centers teachers-not just teaching practices-and that focuses on the belief systems that shape decision-making.

"DrWhitaker provides a road map that meets educational leaders, their teams, and staff where they are on their individual and collective journeys toward achieving educational equity."

Aaron J. Griffen, Vice President of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, DSST Public Schools

"Whitaker has constructed a powerhouse book that every leader in prekindergarten-12 schools should read. A resource about the intersectional nature of cognition and behavior, this book is transformative for the individual and the collective."

H. Richard Milner IV, Cornelius Vanderbilt Distinguished Professor of Education, author of Start Where You Are but Don’t Stay There

"With this valuable book, Manya Whitaker illuminates the often deliberate and sometimes inadvertent violations of equity, and provides a handbook for creative and courageous resistance."

William Ayers, author of To Teach and About Becoming a Teacher
