- catalog abstract ""Veteran teacher Julie Landsman leads the reader through a day of teaching and reflection about her work with high school students from a variety of cultures. She speaks honestly about issues of race, poverty, institutional responsibility, and white privilege by engaging the reader in her experiences in the classroom with some of her remarkable students. Throughout the day, we meet bigotry head-on, struggle with questions of racial identity, and find cultural conflict in the corridors of the school building. Along the way, we encounter Tyrone, a young African American student grappling with the realities of discrimination in suburbia; Sheila, a teenage mother struggling to raise her baby in poverty; and Sarah, a white girl living on the streets of Minneapolis. Through the eyes of Julie Landsman we see the complexities of teaching in today's society; within the pages of this book we begin to understand, if only for a moment, what it feels like to be the other."--Jacket.".
