Problem: Critical Reading Reflection
On "does our past influence or connect to racial inequity in schools today?"
With these questions implemented:
1) Was there something in the readings that you had never considered?
2) Are there ideas you agree/disagree with (make sure to base this on evidence and not opinion or emotion)?
3) How have these ideas deepened, challenged or changed your understandings of inequity?
4) Did any of the ideas presented help to frame experiences you have observed in schools?
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
