A call-to-arms for educators in tumultuous times
In times of social disruption and uncertainty, Cultural Proficiency can provide educators with essential tools for promoting greater equity and inclusion. This book places today's political rancor and divisiveness in the context of greater historical change and provides a roadmap to interrupting the cycle of hostility towards marginalized groups. Readers will find:
- Esteemed author Randall Lindsey's latest thinking on Cultural Proficiency
- A deliberately brief format that unpacks the Cultural Proficiency Framework and offers practical guidance
- Tools and guiding principles to help educators move their school community toward inclusivity
- Prompts for individual reflection and team dialogue
Randall B. Lindsey, PhD, is Emeritus Professor, California State University, Los Angeles, and has a practice centered on educa-tional consulting and issues related to equity and access. Prior to higher education faculty roles, Randy served as a junior and senior high school history teacher, a district office admin-istrator for school desegregation, and execu-tive director of a nonprofit corporation. All of Randy's experiences have been in working with diverse populations, and his area of study is the behavior of white people in multicultural settings. It is his belief and experience that too often members of dominant groups are observers of cross-cultural issues rather than personally involved with them. He works with colleagues to design and implement programs for and with schools and community-based organizations to provide access and achievement.
With coauthors Kikanza Nuri Robins and Raymond Terrell, he published the initial Cultural Proficiency book, Cultural Proficiency: A Manual for School Leaders, now in its 3rd edition (2009) for Corwin. His most recent books, also with Corwin, include Culturally Proficient Collaboration: The Use and Misuse of School Counselors (with Diana L. Stephens, 2011); an edited volume The Best of Corwin: Equity (2012); Culturally Proficient Practice: Supporting Educators of English Learning Students (with Reyes Quezada and Delores Lindsey, 2012); and A Culturally Proficient Response to the Common Core: Ensuring Equity Through Professional Learning (with Delores B. Lindsey, Karen M. Kearney, Delia Estrada, and Raymond D. Terrell, 2015). Randall will publish a chapter titled "Culturally Proficient Leadership: Doing What's Right for Students--All Students" (with coauthor Raymond Terrell, 2015) in Key Questions for Educational Leaders edited by John P. Portelli and Darrin Griffiths and published by Words and Deeds. Randy and his wife and frequent coauthor, Delores, are enjoying this phase of life as grandparents, as educators, and in support of just causes that extend the promises of democracy throughout society in authentic ways.• Author(s): Clear | James • Publisher: Penguin • Publisher Imprint: Penguin Random House • Subject: General Books
