The lawn needs both water and fertilizer: norming difference by balancing culture and practice in parallel
Curtis Linton, who has been called a cultural archaeologist, has been studying classrooms for years. His work has taken him into the world of courageous conversations about race and equity. Here, Mr. Curtis tells some very personal stories about growing up Mormon and trans-racial adoption and how these issues have helped shape his perspectives on equity. Curtis shares some ideas for engaging difference in the classroom by normalizing it, tapping into emotions as a way to impact change, making deliberate choices about the texts we use and the ways we use those texts, and working on culture and practice in tandem.
