Other People's Children by Lisa D. Delpit

Cultural Conflict in the Classroom

This book examines how schools often misunderstand and devalue the cultural styles and language of children from marginalized communities, arguing that educators must recognize and teach the “codes of power” that grant access to institutional success while simultaneously respecting and building on students’ home cultures; it blends critique of systemic bias with concrete classroom strategies and reflections to help teachers bridge cultural divides, advocate for equity, and improve learning outcomes for all students.
