Fireside Learning:  Conversations about Education

from Teaching Tolerance: "Colorblindness: the New Racism?" --by Afi-Odelia E. Scruggs

"Colorblindness: the New Racism?"

This article was sent to me today by our school librarian. We're selecting articles for our teachers' dinner meeting, and are adding this one in.
So, what do you think about colorblindness...
How does this relate to the point people are making in David's conversation on Afrocentric/Black centered education?

I'm really happy that we're able to discuss issues of race and diversity here on Fireside. Seems to be a discussion that gets left out of daily discourse, and should be there.
