Reviews

"In this comprehensive anthology, Taylor, Gillborn, and Ladson-Billings bring together the early legal writings which gave birth to Critical Race Theory alongside educational research that has attempted to incorporate, deepen, and reinvent that tradition. Foundations of Critical Race Theory in Education offers an intertextual history as it takes us from the courtroom to the classroom. Indeed, it allows us to more fully understand educational debates around race, inequality, and power as part of a longer trajectory of struggle. Scholars and activists concerned about the racial and cultural politics of schooling will quickly embrace this grounded and groundbreaking book."

-- Kristen L. Buras, Assistant Professor of Multicultural Urban Education and Reform, Division of Educational Studies, Emory University
