Work with Author Kwame Sarfo-Mensah!
Join Kwame four Sundays from February 9 - March 2, 2025 for a deeper dive into his new book, Learning to Relearn: Supporting Identity in a Culturally Affirming Classroom, (Routledge; 1st edition, November 2024)!
Kwame challenges educators to embark on a transformative journey toward creating classrooms that embrace diversity, equity, and inclusion. Rooted in the principles of antibias, antiracist (ABAR) education, this book offers a dynamic roadmap for teachers seeking to dismantle systemic biases and foster inclusive spaces that honor intersectional student identities.
"Sarfo-Mensah has written himself into the canon of
scholars who boldly advocate for social justice in
schools." -Dr. Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz
More about the book!
Learning to Relearn is not just a call for change; it's a call for unlearning and relearning, encouraging teachers to continually evolve their practices to meet the diverse needs of their students. Through compelling first-person narratives and actionable insights, this book equips educators with the tools to create culturally-affirming classrooms where every student's identity is not just acknowledged but celebrated. This is an indispensable resource for educators committed to shaping classrooms that reflect the true richness of human experiences.
