Active Brave Conversations: Classroom Voices That Support and Advocate for Belonging and Inclusion - Paperback

by Andrew B. Campbell (Author)

Drawing on the work and experience of more than a dozen educators and activists, this timely book explores a range of ways to engender and nurture belonging. Full of practical strategies and activities to add to educators' and leaders' toolboxes, it deals with many aspects of inclusion, including dismantling racism and using strength-based approaches to practice culturally relevant and responsive education. Promoting belonging as positive and joyful, real-life examples and stories support the idea that educators can learn, unlearn, and relearn their approach to making classrooms a place of learning for all.
