Description
I Heard What You Said by Jeffrey Boakye is a thought-provoking analysis of how to dismantle racism in the classroom and do better by all students.
The author, who has spent a lifetime navigating places of learning that are white by default, recounts his experiences as a black teacher and student, offering a unique perspective on the UK's classrooms.
Through eye-opening encounters with people who have said provocative things about him or his teaching, Boakye reflects on the habits, presumptions, silences and distortions that black students and teachers experience in British education.
