Abstract

Educators in the United States and South Africa are continually faced with the challenge of how to better incorporate diverse groups of students, improving the education experience for all. Stubborn Roots argues that schools in these two regions – weakened historically by racial and ethnic discrimination – will greatly miss the benefits of a critical social policy for reducing inequality via education if they do not pay sufficient attention to the socio-cultural context within schools . Jo Taylor believes this book should encourage more educational specialists to make their findings accessible to teaching professionals.
