In this oral memoir, Williams identifies the essential elements of sound education and describes the battles she waged to secure those elements, first as teacher, then a counselor, and, for twenty-five years, as principal. She also described her own education - growing up black in largely white Germantown, Pennsylvania; studying black history and culture for the first time at Cheyney State Teachers College; and meeting the rigorous demands of the program which she graduated from in 1949. In retracing her career, Williams examines the highs and lows of urban public education since World War II. She is at once an outspoken critic and spirited advocate of the system to which she devoted her life. | 出版日期 | Book 2005 | 关键词 | curriculum; education; race; school; state | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4039-8140-0 | isbn_softcover | 978-0-312-29543-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4039-8140-0Series ISSN 2731-5673 Series E-ISSN 2731-5681 | issn_series | 2731-5673 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Nature America Inc. 2005 |
