Other People's Children
Cultural Conflict in the Classroom
Lisa Delpit
This award-winning book, Other People's Children, presents a radical analysis of contemporary classrooms, exploring ways teachers can be better "cultural transmitters." Author Lisa Delpit contends that many academic problems attributed to children of color stem from miscommunication, imbalance of power, and cultural assumptions. A must-read for educators and parents alike, the book offers insights into improving the quality of America's education system.
