Strengths-Based Changemakers in Education is the perfect tool for educators looking for brief articles involving the history and current state of racial equity in education. Following each reading, educators can complete self-reflection questions, identify changes needed in their own school, and create a plan of action. The format allows for independent use or with professional learning communities, equity teams, or school improvement planning committees working to interrupt racism in their school. The book explores different aspects of modern education beginning with a brief history, an understanding of laws and policies and their impact on education, and a dive into how schools are structured. Readers will then consider their own role in education, their school community, and the current state in which they work. Finally, the book considers implementation theory, resistance to change, and dismantling the current to create the new. For use on its own or in conjunction with the authors’ book Interrupting Racism, this book lends itself well to use as a guiding resource for equity teams in schools.
