Synopsis
Drawing on her extensive teaching experiences in classrooms from Alaska to New Guinea, the award-winning author of this book argues that all children must be given access to the codes of power that drive society. In addition she suggests that many of the academic problems attributed to children of color are actually the result of cultural miscommunication between schools and "other people's children".

Publisher's Note
How can we better educate teachers to accommodate ethnic and racial diversity? How can we stop training teachers to expect less of certain children? Drawing on her extensive teaching experience in classrooms from Alaska to New Guinea, an award-winning educator argues that all children must be given access to the codes of power that drive society.

Industry reviews
" ...she pleads for educational planning that begins with scrupulous reaffirmation of the heritage of home and community while giving students the skills to participate in the dominant culture."
Chicago Tribune Books - Andrew Kaplan 

"...Other Poeple's Children is a godsend. Lisa Delpit hits upon many timely issues. Her attempts to be both honest and fair, yet visionary and firm make this a rewarding text."
