racism in the schools, and how it impacts student learning and
their total being. In order to eliminate racism in schools, she
argues for antiracist/multicultural arts curricula. Also, included
are many excellent suggestions to correct racist practices. Through
Students' Eyes is important and valuable reading for faculty and
students in preservice education programs and must reading for
inservice teachers and administrators."-Carl A. Grant, University

"Karen Donaldson reminds us that young people are deeply concerned
about fairness and equality. This book stands as an eloquent
proclamation of the deep understanding they have about the impact
of racism on their lives, the value of education for their future,
and the important role they can have in creating more inclusive
schools. It is one of the few books that celebrates the words, the
visions, and the dreams of youth."-from the foreword by Sonia
Nieto, University of Massachusetts
