Tracing her educational journey with its roots in the North Bronx, Lewis paints a vivid, intimate picture of her battle to be heard in a system struggling to unlock the minds of the children it serves, while stifling the voices of teachers of color who hold the key. The reader gains full access to a perspective that has been virtually ignored since the No Child Left Behind Act, through which questions surrounding increased resignation rates by teachers of color and failing test scores can be answered. -- Provided by publisher. 520 Teaching While Black is both a deeply personal narrative of a black woman's real-life experiences and a clarion call for culturally responsive teaching. Lewis fearlessly addresses the reality of toxic school culture head-on and gives readers an inside look at the inert bureaucracy, heavy-handed administrators, and ineffective approach to pedagogy that prevent inner-city kids from learning. At the heart of Lewis's moving narrative is her passion. Each chapter delves deeper into the author's conscious uncoupling from the current trends in public education that diminish proven remedies for academic underachievement, as observed from her own experiences as a teacher of students of color. -- Provided by publisher. 520 Teaching While Black summons everyone to re-examine what good teaching looks like. Through a powerful vision, together with practical ideas and strategies for teachers navigating very difficult waters, Lewis delivers hope for the future of teaching and learning in inner-city schools. -- Provided by publisher. 600 10 Lewis, Pamela,|d1956-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2008006079 650 0 African American women teachers|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh97008442|zNew York (State)|zNew York|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79007751-781 |vBiography.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001237 650 0 African American children|xEducation|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2007100740|zNew York (State)|zNew York.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79007751-781 650 0 Elementary school teaching|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85042511|zNew York (State)|zNew York.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79007751-781 650 0 Education, Urban|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85041087|zNew York (State)|zNew York.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79007751-781 650 7 African American women teachers.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/799529 650 7 African American children|xEducation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1766543 650 7 Elementary school teaching.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/907963 650 7 Education, Urban.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 903310 651 7 New York (State)|zNew York.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1204333 655 4 Biography. 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026047 655 7 Autobiographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919894 776 08 |iOnline version:|aLewis, Pamela, 1956-|tTeaching while black : a new voice on race and education in New York City.|dNew York : Empire State Editions, an imprint of Fordham University Press, 2016|w(OCoLC)939196036 901 MARCIVE 20231220 994 C0|bRID
