How do we Critique and Challenge Inequity

Dimensions of Equity


  • Removing the predictability of academic success or failure based on social, economic, or cultural factors.
  • Interrupting inequitable practices, eliminating biases and oppression and creating inclusive school environments for adults and children
  • Discovering and cultivating the unique gifts, talents, and interests that each human being possesses within and across schools, districts and communities in partnership with one another (Osta and Perrow 2008 p 3-4)
  • Resource---Every Day Anti Racism: does this practice lead to more educational opportunity or less educational opportunity? Why? What is our EVIDENCE?



Limits:
Whose voice is heard
Whose is silenced?
Whos is represented?
Who is missing?
Who stands to benefit?
Who stands to lose?
What assumptions fuel this

How does this inform our decisions and drive our work?
