Recenzje

"The Story of Latinos and Education is one of the most comprehensive, compelling, and passionate analyses of the education of Latinos in America, inextricably linking the persistent disparity in the education of Latinos to the long history of racial and social segregation, division, and inequality that remains to this day." Ron Blackburn Moreno, National Executive Director, Aspira Association

O autorze

Abdín Noboa-Ríos, Ph.D., a native of Puerto Rico, is a social scientist and educator who has worked in the fields of education, mental health, and organizational development for decades. As a former practitioner and now researcher from the barrios of Chicago and New York, Dr. Noboa-Ríos has long observed and confronted status quo. Alarmed by how flawed "reform" in education is, disquieted by how poorly conceived "policies" have promoted rather than solved inequity, and concerned about America's future, he strongly questions where we are going. In response, he bravely calls for a new paradigm-a necessary renaissance-to escape the current chaos and move toward progress.
