GEN: Terrific multicultural resource

[Johanna Halbeisen Rebecca Johnson School]

I just found out about a great resource.  It's a periodical called
_Rethinking Schools_, "an independent quarterly journal committed to equity
and social justice."  What I have in my hands is a special issue, _Rethnking
Our Classrooms_, full of articles, theory and practice.  I just read "The
Politics of Children's Literature, What's Wrong with the Rose Parks Myth" by
Herbert Kohl.  A must-read for anyone attempting Black History activities.

Address is Rethinking Schools, 1001 E. Keefe Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53212,
(414) 964-9646, email Barbaramin@aol.com

A 2 yr sub is only $20.
The special issue is $9.50 (includes post and handling)

I've been mourning the loss of the Council on Interracial Books for
Children.  This is working on the same issues.  Now all we need is someone
that does good anti-bias book and media reviews!
