Multicultural education: Issues and perspectives
Banks, J. A., & Banks, C. A. (2019)
John Wiley & Sons
There is a wide and growing ethnic, cultural, social-class, and
linguistic gap between many of the nations teachers and their students.
Multicultural Education: Issues and Perspectives, 9th edition, is designed
to help current and future educators acquire the concepts, paradigms, and
explanations needed to become effective practitioners in culturally,
racially, linguistically, and social-class diverse classrooms and schools.
An important goal of the 9th edition is to help educators attain a
sophisticated understanding of the concept of culture and to view race,
class, gender, social class, and exceptionality as interacting concepts
rather than as separate and distinct.

Culturally Responsive Practices in Speech, Language, and Hearing
Sciences is unique in that it provides an innovative perspective on
cultural competence in the field of communication sciences and disorders. It
is imperative for speech-language pathologists and audiologists to be aware
of diverse aspects of globalization: how these aspects may affect their own
knowledge, strengths and biases, service provision, their clients’ lives, as
well as their clients’ relationships to service providers. The purpose of
this text is to facilitate the creation of knowledge and the development of
attitudes and skills that lead to culturally responsive practices. The text
presents a conceptual framework to guide speech-language pathologists and
audiologists toward cultural competence by becoming critically engaged users
of culturally responsive and globally engaged practices. The text is focused
on speech-language pathology and audiology, but also draws from theoretical
frameworks in other disciplines for an inter-professional, transdisciplinary
and macro practice perspective, and is appropriate for other allied health
professions. This information will help students and professionals build
their own conceptual framework for providing culturally and linguistically
responsive services, and engage with others globally.
Teaching about race and racism in the college classroom: Notes from a
white professor
Kernahan, C. (2019)
West Virginia University Press
Teaching about race and racism can be a difficult business. Students
and instructors alike often struggle with strong emotions, and many people
have robust preexisting beliefs about race. At the same time, this is a
moment that demands a clear understanding of racism. It is important for
students to learn how we got here and how racism is more than just
individual acts of meanness. Students also need to understand that
colorblindness is not an effective anti-racism strategy. In this book, Cyndi
Kernahan argues that you can be honest and unflinching in your teaching
about racism while also providing a compassionate learning environment that
allows for mistakes and avoids shaming students. She provides evidence for
how learning works with respect to race and racism along with practical
teaching strategies rooted in that evidence to help instructors feel more
confident. She also differentiates between how white students and students
of color are likely to experience the classroom, helping instructors provide
a more effective learning experience for all students.
