Becoming a skilled anti-bias teacher is a journey. With this volume’s practical guidance, you’ll grow in your ability to identify, confront, and eliminate barriers of prejudice, misinformation, and bias about specific aspects of personal and social identity. Most important, you’ll find tips for helping staff and children learn to respect each other, themselves, and all people. Over the last three decades, educators across the nation and around the world have gained a wealth of knowledge and experience in anti-bias work. The result is a richer and more nuanced articulation of what is important in anti-bias education. Revolving around four core goals—identity, diversity, justice, and activism—individual chapters focus on culture and language, racial identity, family structures, gender identity, economic class, different abilities, and more.

Industry Reviews

"I welcome this new edition of Anti-Bias Education for Young Children and Ourselves because we are still learning exactly how to support all children and families. This book is a master class on our professional responsibilities to lead issues of identity, diversity, justice, and activism." -Valora Washington, CEO, Council for Professional Recognition

"Every early childhood educator needs to read this book. And we probably need to re-read it every year. Let's talk about it with our colleagues. Let's put it into practice. It is our professional responsibility to internalize the content and bring it to life every single day." -Megan Pamela Ruth Madison, Trainer, Center for Racial Justice in Education & New York Early Childhood Professional Development Institute

"This book urges us to examine how we're creating equitable and anti-bias educational experiences for young children. From cover to cover, it features voices from the field, real classroom scenarios, and resources that propel us towards action!" -Tonia Durden, Clinical Associate Professor, Georgia State University
