PREFACE:

This space has been created for educators, administrators, parents, and youth advocates and attendees of “Culturally Competent Educators: Building Brilliance in Black and Brown Children” as a forum for sharing experiences and reflections as they work through these resources. On this page, we invite and encourage you to share your experiences and reflections, ideas and insights and engage with others to address questions surrounding educating our most marginalized population.

While these resources are intended to offer an introduction on this subject, our list is not intended to be exhaustive and we welcome suggestions to other potential resources.

With our next event on October 13th, 2018 titled “Culturally Competent Educators: Building Brilliance in Black and Brown Children” along with both the provided and suggested resources on this page, we hope readers will become (more) aware of their cultural practices and (re)commit themselves to becoming a culturally competent educator.
