When Principle Meets Practice: Teachers' Contradictory Responses to Antiracist Education.
Solomon, R. Patrick; Levine-Rasky, Cynthia
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v42 n1 p19-33 Mar 1996
Survey of 1,002 elementary and secondary school teachers from 5 Canadian urban school districts revealed that teachers' negative responses to antiracist education were based on commitment to traditional pedagogic concerns and on conservative views regarding politics, race, and antiracism. Despite expressed support, implementation of antiracist education has met with widespread reluctance. Contains 55 references. (Author/LP)
