A groundbreaking and visionary call to action on educating and supporting girls of color, from the highly acclaimed author of PushoutMonique Morris is a personal shero of mine and a respected expert in this space.Ayanna Pressley, U.S. congresswoman and the first woman of color elected to Boston's city councilWise Black women have known for centuries that the blues have been a platform for truth-telling, an underground musical railroad to survival, and an essential form of resistance, healing, and learning. In this powerful call to action (Rethinking Schools), leading advocate Monique W. Morris invokes the spirit of the blues to articulate a radically healing and empowering pedagogy for Black and Brown girls. Morris describes with candor and love what it looks like to meet the complex needs of girls on the margins. Sing a Rhythm, Dance a Blues is a vital, generous, and sensitively reasoned argument for how we might transform American schools to better educate Black and Brown girls (San Francisco Chronicle). Morris brings together research and real life in this chorus of interviews, case studies, and the testimonies of remarkable people who work successfully with girls of color. The result is this radiant guide to moving away from punishment, trauma, and discrimination toward safety, justice, and genuine community in our schools.
