This is an audiobook version of the paperback title published by Corwin Press. Although there has been significant exploration of the need for and importance of culturally responsive, sustaining, equitable and inclusive teaching and learning within the past several years, the focus is often on creating these environments and experiences for Black and Brown students. While it is essential for teachers to become culturally responsive practitioners, we don't often explore how racialization has harmed White students, and the importance and benefit of creating and sustaining learning environments where White students learn to shift from centering their own racial identity to recognizing and valuing the histories, perspectives, experiences, interests, identities, and contributions of traditionally marginalized people. Open Windows, Open Minds builds from Rudine Sims Bishop's concept of Mirrors, Windows and Sliding Glass Doors to provide anti-bias, anti-racist, and allyship development for teachers, then to offer strategies for moving that work into classroom instruction through literacy practices. From awareness to action, the book explores what White anti-bias, anti-racist practitioners wish they had known when they were K-12 students; defines why learning to appreciate the experiences and perspectives of others is essential for our White students; and offers practical guidance to teaching and learning that will equip White students as informed, empathetic, inclusive global citizens who genuinely value diversity and will actively engage in dismantling systemic inequities.
