Recenzii
"Every early years setting needs a copy of this book. Louis and Betteridge, two generations of the same family, share their combined research, knowledge and lived experiences generously to challenge and support practitioners and families to develop more equitable practice for young children of colour. The balance of lived examples from practice, current research data and Black contributors make this a unique book. Use this book for personal reflection, in your training or book group to guide your discussions and to effect change. We can all, ‘Do something. Do more. Do better.’" - Jane Whinnett MBE, Froebel Trust Travelling Tutor, Froebel in Childhood Practice, University of Edinburgh
"I humbly recommend this book to all who want to move equality and inclusive practice forward by talking about race and encouraging all members of early years communities – children, families - to value diversity and challenge bias. This book is challenging and practical; it addresses the needs of educators, wherever they are on their personal and professional journey to break the cycle of discrimination in their settings. The authors shine a light on ways to ‘identify and confront discriminatory and prejudicial practice’ and at the same time they challenge readers to examine their own thinking and practice. It is - in parts - a necessarily difficult read; there is nothing easy or comfortable about racism. It is also an enabling book; offering readers tools to tackle bias, and to create honest, dynamic and anti-racist environments where all children – and their families – thrive. In the hands of committed educators, this book will make a difference." - Professor Dame Cathy Nutbrown, The School Education Faculty of Social Sciences, The University of Sheffield
"This book challenges early childhood educators to think deeply about personal and institutional racism and to act decisively against it. It may be difficult to raise and discuss the inequities of racial prejudice in early years settings. Yet in our increasingly diverse and also increasingly polarised societies, it is crucial that early childhood educators know how to recognise, discuss and counter biases and racism in themselves, and others, including young children. The authors explain why this is so, inviting readers to join them as they share their clear perspective about race, anti-racism and ways to work towards equity and genuine inclusion. Using personal experiences and case studies, research based understandings and practical exercises, they guide the reader through a thought provoking and valuable process." - Carole Bloch, Extraordinary Professor, Language Education, University of the Western Cape
"Let’s Talk About Race in the Early Years is exactly what we need right now [...]. Stella and Hannah weave in best practice throughout the book ensuring that observation of children is key, as well as developing relationships with families and including music, song and rhyme as an example of ensuring cultural relevance and providing a window into new spaces to explore [...]. The authors present clear definitions and explanations with real life and relatable case studies to ensure that all the messages make sense and can be applied to the reader's own practice. The book highlights the challenges that we need to overcome to unpick the nuance that we learn from the world and make conscious effort to be better citizens, as well as encouraging and teaching children the same." - Rachna Joshi, Freelance Writer and Early Childhood Consultant
