The Question Persists…am I broken?
1st generation language learner in U.S. K-12 schools It’s about persistence—“being” and “behaving” like them. Am I broken?
Experience in U.S. higher education institutions Qualified Admission: Who belongs? Am I broken?
Working in U.S. prisons A sea of “students of color” who said, “My teachers hated me” and “No one
believed I could learn.” Am I broken?
Master’s in Counseling Maybe we are all pathological? Is the language of the oppressor on target? Does
poverty, culture and language difference = dysfunction? Am I broken?
Is A PhD the answer? Curriculum and Instruction? Educational Psychology
The Meaning Perspectives that teachers hold in relation to their Mexican American Students
Scapegoating, reductionist prescriptivism, mañana attitude, colorblind accommodative denial

Instead of students asking “Am I broken?,” culturally and linguistically diverse students should be pushed to ask “What are my assets?”
Instead of teachers being proleptic about their students of color’s futures, they should be asking “What are my students’ strengths?”

1971 United States Commission on Civil Rights

The Rise & Fall of Multicultural Education
Born out of the Civil Rights Movement, the school system moved from “multiethnic education” to “multicultural education”
Included issues of gender, socioeconomic class, and other marginalized groups
Failed to investigate and locate the deeper societal roots of racism, sexism, and classism
Left educators with an attempt to recognize cultural and linguistic diversity but never truly integrated and embedded cultural and linguistic diversity into the daily practice within our school system (Gotando, 2000).

…using the cultural characteristics,
experiences, and perspectives of ethnically
diverse students as conduits for teaching them
more effectively. It is based on the assumption
that when academic knowledge and skills are
situated within the lived experiences and
frames of reference of students, they are more
personally meaningful, have higher interest
appeal, and are learned more easily and
thoroughly. Gay (2002,
p. 106)

Critique of Culturally Responsive Teaching/Pedagogy
Sometimes educators approach culturally responsive teaching/pedagogy with a “checklist” mindset:
Read article on African American culture. CHECK! Attend professional development session on diversity.
CHECK! Cook Mexican food and bring to my students. CHECK! Watch a documentary on urban schools. CHECK! Add “diversity clothing & musical instruments” for play.
CHECK! Hang up motivational poster that includes people of color.
CHECK!

Social Justice or Social JustUS?
Teaching for social justice is currently theorized and discussed in higher education classrooms in order to prepare “teachers as change agents” by
• recognizing forms of oppression• Interrupting the cycle of oppression
BUT Social Justice can become Social JustUS when we:
• have different definitions of oppression based on our own biases.• present our views as superior to our students’ vision of a better
world.• participate in this movement merely to make ourselves feel
better.

Where are we now? Why are we stuck?

Assuming A Deficit Perspective
Gorski (2008, 2010) explains that educators typically enter the classroom with adoration and “love” for their students but “hope fades” because teachers pair these good intentions with a deficit perspective.
![Page 18: Moving Beyond the Obvious: What is Highly Effective, Culturally Responsive Pedagogy? Dr. Socorro Herrera Kansas State University.](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022103123/56649d355503460f94a0c542/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Let’s Talk about the Deficit Perspective
Deficit perspective is the act of focusing on a student’s weaknesses rather than her/his strengths.

Praxis is the process in which theory is realized and embodied through practice.

While many of us might agree that relationship-building with our students is
the key their educational successes, what keeps us from building those real
relationships and connections?
