Jeffrey Boakye: I Heard What You Said, Gebunden

Klappentext

Jeffrey Boakye is a teacher. He is also a black man. This makes him something of an anomaly in the UK's white education system. He wants to explain what life is really like for Britain's black teachers and students . . .

Through a series of encounters based on things people have said to him or about him, Jeffrey describes his experience of racism, both structural and personal. Because he's a great teacher, Jeffrey presents these shocking stories as a learning opportunity, a chance to help his students, his readers and the world to better understand one of the biggest problems we face. He also explains why we must all decolonize the curriculum and diversify schools if we want to eradicate racism.

Smart and witty, eye-opening and thought-provoking, I Heard What You Said offers an unforgettable insight into racism in modern education and sets out what we can do to change things for the better.
