Book Description
The stories that I am going to share with you, to the best of my knowledge and experiences, are true. Again, I’ve taught mostly boys—black and white boys. In some years, I’ve worked in classes that were nearly all white, and the reverse is also true. This book is not a body of research that should be used to influence policy in school districts. I merely want people to look at the lives of these young men and realize that all of us, black or white, are in need of caring individuals in our lives to help us make better choices in life. Hopefully, teachers will read this book and become better practitioners when dealing with students on the fringes. I’d also hope adults—parents, community leaders, religious leaders, and politicians—will look at all children and realize that race, money, and class do not insolate us from the perils of life. Having one parent or two at home cannot determine what course a person will take. Please read this book with an open heart and an open mind. I believe most educators, parents, community leaders, and professionals who work with children want to produce better children. Let the dialogue begin.
