Abstract
Today’s dominant, mainstream curriculum teaches students “codes” or “cultures of power” (Delpit, 1988). In Delpit’s view, these are skills and behaviours that people need to successfully complete school and then succeed in the workplace; they include communication and writing skills, critical thinking, mannerisms, and culturally appropriate behaviour.
