Open Windows, Open Minds: Developing Antiracist, Pro-Human Students. Corwin Literacy
Mills, Afrika Afeni
Corwin
Equip your students--and yourself--to grapple with racial identity and crucial questions about race. As antiracist educators, we strive to create learning environments where White-identifying students learn to shift from centering their own racial identity to recognizing the histories, perspectives, and experiences of others. How do we make that vision a reality? In "Open Windows, Open Minds," transformational educator Afrika Afeni Mills explores why racial identity work is crucial, especially for White-identifying students and 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. This roadmap for moving from intention to action includes: (1) Exercises that push educators to examine their own racial identity before facilitating antiracism work with students; (2) Prompts that lead educators from deep thinking to instructional planning and implementation; (3) Developmentally appropriate teaching strategies for guiding students toward understanding racial identity and engaging in action-oriented learning; and (4) Tools and resources for navigating challenges, finding allies, and creating partnerships. Engaging in anti-bias, antiracist work requires actively thinking, doing, and evolving. Open windows to racial identity and awareness in your students and help create a more inclusive and equitable society. [Foreword written by Cornelius Minor and Kass Minor.]
