Published on October 15, 2021, this comprehensive volume challenges traditional deficit perspectives in education, particularly those directed towards Black students, by posing the pivotal question: “What is right with Black students and what happens in classrooms where teachers, parents, and students get it right?” Through a series of thought-provoking essays, Ladson-Billings explores the essence and application of Culturally Relevant Pedagogy (CRP) across various subjects and its critical role in teacher education. From analyzing literacy's liberatory power to integrating elements of youth culture like hip hop into educational frameworks, this book offers a retrospective and future-oriented view of CRP.
