Abstract
This book aims to capacitate an overwhelmingly White teaching force for teaching diverse students attending de facto segregated inner-city schools. My life history, as a White teacher from a middle class background who taught first in rural poor and then inner-city schools, tells a story of struggling with and working to bridge differences in teaching and learning with students whose background were different from mine.
