Race has nothing to do with it?“Our principal invited you here to talk to us about specific strategies to teach our poor children. I was devouring what you had to say — you were right on target — until you got to this race stuff.
Race has nothing to do with how to teach my
kids living in poverty. What does it matter? Really!”

Defining Racism
“The transformation of racial prejudice into…racism through the use of powerdirected against racial group(s) and their members, who are defined as inferior by individuals, institutional members, and leaders, which is reflected in policy and procedures with the intentional and unintentional support and participation...”
(Carter, 2007, p. 24)

ColorblindnessPeople sometimes claim that they were raised to “just see people,” and to not think about race.
This thinking carries over into their conceptions of their work:
• Mindset 1: If I acknowledge the racial or ethnic background of my students or myself, then I may be considered racist.
• Mindset 2: If I admit that people experience and see the world differently, I may be seen as politically incorrect. I may offend others (students, colleagues) if I express my beliefs and reservations about race.
• Mindset 3: I should treat all my students the same, regardless of who they are, what their home situations are, or what their experiences related to race happen to be.

Socio-Economic Status and MeritocracyMeritocracy - the idea that people are rewarded based (solely or mostly) on their ability, performance, and talents.
• Mindset 1: All groups of people were born with the same opportunities. If people follow a formula –work hard, put forth effort, and follow the law –then they will be successful.
• Actors, athletes, Oprah, etc.
• Mindset 2: If people do not succeed, it is because they are not working hard enough, not because of other factors outside of their control.

Voices of Teachers• “I get so sick of people making something out of
nothing…My grandparents immigrated to this country with nothing, and they made something of their lives because they worked hard…”
• Beverly Gordon’s insight
• “I’m going to be the kind of teacher who follows your advice and have high expectations…if a student is not turning in his homework [on time], I’m not going to give any slack…It’s going to be a zero in my grade book.”
![Page 39: Ten Reminders as You Make a Difference This Year!...Ten Reminders as You Make a Difference This Year!

Implications for Practice• Factors beyond ability, talent, effort, and hard work can
contribute to students’ academic and social success.
• If the meritocracy argument were completely accurate, sociologist James Henslin (2007) wrote:
…all positions would be awarded on the basis of merit. If so, ability should predict who goes to college. Instead, family income is the best predictor — the more a family earns, the more likely their children are to go to college…while some people do get ahead through ability and hard work, others simply inherit wealth and the opportunities that go with it…in short, factors far beyond merit give people their positions in society.
