A powerful, transformative, and accessible resource with tools and strategies throughout, this book is a must-read for educators in the fight for equitable policies and practices that recognize and honor student identity as germane to teaching and learning. A resource that disrupts the notion of belonging as assimilation, this book teaches as it inspires."" -- H. Richard Milner IV"
