       love of all. 
520    Unapologetic and gritty, Teaching While Black offers an 
       insightful, honest portrayal of Lewis's turbulent eleven-
       year relationship within the New York City public school 
       system and her fight to survive in a profession that has 
       undervalued her worth and her understanding of how 
       children of color learn best. 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.
