Rethinking Multicultural Education: Teaching for Racial and Cultural Justice

by Wayne Au

Description

Rethinking Multicultural Education challenges the idea that “diversity” alone is enough, arguing instead for an education grounded in racial and cultural justice. Drawing on critical perspectives and practical classroom implications, it examines how schools can reproduce inequity through curriculum, policy, and everyday teaching practices—and how educators can intervene to build more equitable learning experiences. With a clear, action-oriented approach, the book explores themes of power, representation, language, and institutional responsibility, offering guidance for teaching that is both intellectually rigorous and socially transformative. Wayne Au’s distinctive, research-informed style bridges theory and practice, making this an essential resource for educators, students, and advocates seeking to rethink what multicultural education should accomplish.
