Summary Note "'Courageous conversations about race' is divided into three parts reflecting the three essential characteristics of racial equity leadership; passion, practice, and persistence. In the first part, 'Passion,' the book begins by exploring the landscape of educational reform and exposing the issue of race as a most devastating phenomenon impacting the lives and learning of all children. I urge my readers to maintain an unwavering focus on race, rather than income level or other variables of difference that may be more comfortable topics of discussion. The next series of chapters, 'Practice,' takes the reader on a step-by-step journey into the race conversation, providing the language, markers, tools, and insights necessary to begin and stay in the dialogue. Finally, in 'Persistence,' educators will learn about the leadership that is necessary to eliminate racial achievement gaps." - p. 6.
