Navigate equity with confidence and clarity.

Amid a challenging political climate increasingly seeking to curtail DEI efforts, Latish C. Reed introduces the innovative Equity Empowerment Continuum (EEC), an introspective and systematic approach to understanding and addressing the complexities of equity in any organization. Dr. Reed offers personal insights and practical tools, demonstrating how reflection and careful analysis can lead to action and sustainable equity in schools and other organizations. This essential resource merges theory and practice with a candid perspective on the challenges of dismantling systemic injustice.

Each chapter features real-world examples and vignettes that bring theoretical concepts to life, offering relatable scenarios and detailed analyses to propel readers toward equity-focused solutions. Additional features include

  • Reflection Prompts and Worksheets: Access online resources to brainstorm and strategize using the EEC model.
  • Historical and Contemporary Identifiers: Understand equity phases through real-life examples from education and beyond.
  • End-of-Chapter Questions: Facilitate individual or team discussions to reinforce learning and application.

The Complexities of Equity is an indispensable guide empowering readers to evaluate personal biases and influence organizational change. This resource supports those committed to fostering equity across every sphere of influence.

Dr. Latish Reed, a senior equity leadership consultant, has a career spanning over two decades. She served as the Milwaukee Public School's first equity leader hired in January 2016. In her role, she supported the organization by building the capacity to address issues of marginalization and creating an equity policy that was unanimously passed by the Milwaukee Board of School Directors. During her tenure at MPS, Dr. Reed was also a professional development manager. In the summer of 2020, she orchestrated the first summer virtual leadership institute where over 1,200 district and school leaders logged on. She developed subsequent virtual professional learning opportunities for the entire organization. Dr. Reed also served as a talent development specialist where she enacted equity by supporting the licensing process to increase the numbers of certified teachers.

Before becoming a school district administrator, Dr. Reed was an assistant professor of School Administration at both the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, respectively. Her research centered on the cultural and social factors that impact school organization and leadership. Dr. Reed also served as a college admissions counselor, MPS middle school teacher, and school administrator. She received a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis from The University of Wisconsin-Madison, a Master's degree in Middle School Teaching from Alverno College in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology from Marquette University.

While her professional context is education, her expertise spans across all institutions. Dr. Reed has had opportunities to speak and consult with corporations, healthcare professionals, and county government agencies about issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion. She has been honored for her teaching and equity work with a School of Education Teaching Award, The "To Do What is Just" Award, and The Milwaukee Community School Partnership Champion Award.
