*Learning Targets I will develop my own level of understanding
as I reflect and discuss the concept of White Privilege.
I will consider and compare how White Privilege affects me and another person not of my race.
I will help to generate ideas for ways to create a school and classroom culture of inclusion, enabling all students to feel welcome and able to learn.
I will know how to make a difference at my own school site by beginning a discussion of awareness
of culturally responsive practice.

Article: “White Privilege in Schools”
by Ruth Anne Olson
Please take your time to read and reflect.
Feel free to mark up and write comments in the margins.
Discussion Questions:
1.Can you think of other privileges that could be added to this list?
2.What are the implications for children of color if Whites have these privileges?
3.How can the system be changed so that these “privileges” become rights for everyone?
4.What actions can you take to help the system change?
Beyond Diversity: White Privilege Questionnaire
Please follow the instructions to complete both sides of the questionnaire. (You will not be required to share your score.)
Answer how true the statements are for you, based on your race only, not based on other reasons.
Beyond Diversity: White Privilege Questionnaire, Part 2:
Consider a school parent or friend that you know:
• How true are the statements for a person of a race not my own?
• What do you think their score would be?
At our Beyond Diversity seminar the distribution of scores were as follows:
Whites, all ages, scored 126-130
White & Hispanic bi-racial male, 50s, scored 124
South Asian (India) female, 40s, scored 93
Hispanic female, 40s, scored 75
Hispanic female, 40s, scored 66
Hispanic male, 30s, scored under 30
Black male, 40s, scored under 30
These were all educated colleagues working for school districts
Equity: preventing the social dominant from continuing to marginalize the non-dominant in our setting
Assimilation vs. Navigation
Culturally Responsive
Time for “chalk talk!”How do we put these culturally responsive expectations into practice?
Think of examples or suggestions for putting the specific elements of the matrix into practice.
Grab a marker and write on the chart that relates to your idea.
Let’s talk about your good ideas!We will also share several photo and video stories from McKay school.
