Open Windows, Open Minds: Developing Antiracist, Pro-Human Students

Equip your students--and yourself--to grapple with racial identity and crucial questions about race.

Open Windows, Open Minds, explores why racial identity work is critical for White-identifying students--but first, for their teachers--and shows educators how to use literacy instruction to provide more windows to racial awareness, antiracist thinking, and pro-human action in the classroom. It includes:

• Exercises that push educators to examine their own racial identity before facilitating antiracism work with students
• Developmentally appropriate teaching strategies for guiding students toward understanding racial identity and engaging in action-oriented learning
• Tools and resources for navigating challenges, finding allies, and creating partnerships
