A Fractured School Community: Decolonizing Leaders Needed for Responsive Leadership
Briscoe, Patricia; McIntosh, Eleanor
Journal of Cases in Educational Leadership, v26 n1 p16-30 Mar 2023
In this case, Mary, a cisgender White principal, is struggling in a contentious school climate with a mostly White staff and a racially divided school community. A lunchroom incident highlighted the unaddressed conflict among students, families, and the community that can no longer be ignored. Her unresponsive leadership raises questions about the capacity of White school leaders to be culturally responsive. The authors present a decolonizing leadership framework and three activities, framed by transformative learning theory, that encourage participants to reflect on their biases and develop their understanding of what colonizing and decolonizing education means to their leadership.
