Implementing an antiracist approach can be a struggle.
We might know what that term means, but Lorena has found that not many of us know what that looks like in practice. So, she created a workbook for all of us, where you'll find hands-on strategies couched in love and justice.
Lorena walks us through theoretical and research-based frameworks to develop antiracist reading instruction practices.

Education is implicated in the troubling scenes we are seeing in our country right now.

The good news is that there is great and achievable work that we can do to begin restoration.
