| book description |
This graphic novel is a beautiful reimagining of the classic text about reaching and teaching African American children. The Dreamkeepers has been a perennial favorite with teachers and programs of teacher education for over 30 years. Like the original work, this comics version blends scholarship and storytelling to document the practices of eight exemplary teachers who use culturally relevant and intellectually rigorous teaching to foster academic excellence among African American students. Readers will follow Nissa, a young student teacher beginning her placement at Pinewood School. As she observes and experiments with the methods of the eight teachers, Nissa not only grows in her craft but also learns to embrace her identity as a neurodivergent young woman. Her journey highlights the power of culturally relevant pedagogy while modeling how educators can form meaningful connections with all their students. This visually engaging graphic edition of the classic bestseller by distinguished professor Gloria Ladson-Billings offers an inspiring and accessible entry point for educators of all backgrounds. Book Features: Case studies and key themes are brought to life by the dynamic drawings of Rachel Branham, author of “What’s So Great About Art, Anyway?†A Teacher’s Odyssey. Depictions of what can be learned from successful teachers about teaching all children, especially African American students. An exploration of why human relationships must be at the center of meaningful educational experiences that aim to overcome racist and unjust societal structures.
