&ldquo;Divided We Fail is, quite simply, an extraordinary book. Garland grapples with divisive social and educational issues, puts them into historical perspective, and shows a path out of our current confusion.&rdquo; &mdash;Diane Ravitch, former U.S. assistant secretary of education, historian, and author of The Death and Life of the Great American School System &#160;"With all the noise about failing schools, standardized tests, teacher accountability, and America&rsquo;s educational decline, only the courageous are willing to acknowledge the persistence of racism&mdash;let alone, address the problem in a serious, clear-eyed way.&#160; Sarah Garland has written a courageous book, documenting the struggles of courageous community activists, educators, parents, and children who continued to fight for equity and racial justice long after our nation declared victory over segregation.&#160; In telling this gripping, often tragic, often inspirational story, Garland reveals that integrating a classroom is not the same as dismantling racism. &#160;Divided We Fail is one of those rare books that will move even the most cynical to act.&#160; And act we must."&mdash;Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination&ldquo;Sarah Garland has brilliantly and humanely filled in a missing piece of America&rsquo;s civil rights narrative. Divided We Fail is a story about the beloved institutions black Americans made for themselves&mdash;in this case, a formerly segregated high school in Louisville&mdash;and their fight to preserve and protect them. Garland renders this saga with a deep, compassionate knowledge of her own home city and equal empathy for all the partisans in a bitter legal battle.&rdquo; &mdash;Samuel&#160;G.&#160;Freedman, author of Letters to a Young Journalist"A nuanced and thoroughly researched look at the complicated history of school desegregation in the United States."&mdash;Publishers Weekly"A useful journalistic examination of a troubling societal phenomenon."&mdash;Kirkus Reviews&#160;"A compelling look at the complexities of race and class in the continued struggle for racial parity and high-quality education.&rdquo;&#160;&mdash;Booklist&#160;

Divided We Fail

Un libro lleno de emociones

"This volume is at once a wake-up call to 21st-century educators and an intriguing glimpse at possible futures for teaching and learning with digital technologies." -Kenneth Reeder, Professor, Department of Language and Literacy Education, the University of British Columbia

"Digital Education introduces a healthy corrective to exaggerated techno-optimism or techno-pessimism. The thought-provoking edited collection represents one of the first serious attempts to examine how Web 2.0 may not only improve but also help transform education. Contributors to the book bring a wide range of social theory to the task . . . And they apply this theory to examining incipient efforts to deploy Web 2.0 tools in a broad range of formal educational settings, especially at the tertiary and adult level. Chapters from and about Australia, Canada, Germany, Indonesia, South Africa, Spain, the UK, the US, and Venezuela result in a diverse international discussion that is not common in educational research, and this breadth helps us to better understand the relationship of theory to practice. . . . The contributions in this book represent an especially broad and thoughtful overview of where we have come on these issues and where we stand today." -Professor Mark Warschauer, University of California, Irvine

"Mac Naughton and Davis explode the popular conception of racial innocence in early childhood. This provocative work challenges early childhood educators to rethink how they engage with issues of race in their classrooms and argues strongly for the inclusion of anti-racist pedagogies in early education." - Julie Kaomea, Associate Professor, College of Education, University of Hawai I at Manoa.

"This book locates race; it does not erase it from being a pedagogical imperative for early childhood educators. It takes us out of the soft, safe spaces where notions of inclusivity are tucked away, dangerous and outdated. Mac Naughton and Davis have looked into and beyond the mirror and found where the challenges lie, and where the changes can occur in ways that expand our work, not diminish it. They have embraced race and this makes this work an essential text for all early childhood professionals." - Karen L. Martin, Associate Professor, School of Education, Southern Cross University.

“In conclusion, the book of Francesco Alfieri, OFM stands for a valuable contribution to rounding the scholastic and phenomenological meditation and understanding of the (problem of) individuality in its intricate essence and manifestation … . This essay provides a well-argued insight into a controversial and significant issue that remains open to further discussions as one of topical interest concerning the deep meaning of the own being …” (Spotlight, wordtrade.com, Issue. 31, August, 2018)
