Reframing Urban Education Discourse: A Conversation With and for Teacher Educators

摘要

This article represents a conversation between two urban educators—one African American and one White. Not only the influence of race, but also the influence of personal and cultural histories on urban classrooms and colleges, unfold during their conversation. Providing important insights into the nature and significance of the work of urban education, their dialogue also demonstrates the need for, and examples of, multiple divergent voices in the struggle for practical and theoretical thinking in urban education to give direction to meaningful improvements.
