The Masai of East Africa begin their regular greeting with the question Kasserian Ingera? which translated means, And how are the children? This is exactly the question Dr. Gloria Swindler Boutte asks because she knows that when the children are well, the society is well. This book addresses this question at just the right time. It provides us with the answers we need to move our children successfully through their education. A must read! Dr. Gloria Ladson Billings, Professor Emerita And the former Kellner Family Distinguished Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Past President of the American Educational Research Association (AERA) Imaginative, instructive and truly inspiring, Educating African American Students was ahead of its time and this edition remains essential, incomparable and the most comprehensive culturally-centered pedagogical resource available for educators who are determined to make sure our children are well. In so doing, those who take this book to heart will contribute to the well-being and humanity of all of us. Harambe! Let's pull together ! Dr. Joyce E. King Benjamin E. Mays Endowed Chair for Urban Teaching, Learning & Leadership Georgia State University and Past President, The American Educational Research Association Once again, Boutte poses perhaps the most important question any educator committed to equity must pose everyday: And how are the children? Boutte has produced a seven-course meal - an intricate and delicate feast - that is sure to satisfy the appetite of educators working toward justice and joy with Black children, their families, and communities. A tool to help educators build knowledge, beliefs, attitudes and skills necessary to learn from their Black students while teaching, this book should be in the library of those committed to cognitive, academic, psychological, behavioral, affective, emotional, and social wellbeing of young people living and learning in challenging times.
