Unfortunately, avoiding the impact of identity can create problematic and oppressive conditions in schools. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo how do we lead with an identity-conscious lens? Award-winning author Liza Talusan provides real-world scenarios that educators can work through to apply an identity-conscious practice. Talusan helps educators grapple with three key questions: 1) How do I build knowledge about scenarios that involve identity? 2) How do my own thoughts, attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs contribute to inequitable conditions? 3) What actions can I implement in my classroom\/meeting spaces to align with principles of equity and justice? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders explore these questions through case studies on race, class\/socioeconomic status, religion\/faith, disability, sexual orientation, gender, language, and age. With the book's numerous real-world examples, Talusan makes the concept of an identity-conscious practice more tangible, so you feel ready and empowered to implement it day-to-day in your own practice. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51326885069023,"sku":"9781032822532","price":48.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/prv7rE8GRh9781032822532.webp?v=1788465789"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/liza-talusan.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
