Let's Talk About Race Kate on Waking up to implicit bias in our school systems

How can we realistically educate children in racialized America when teachers don't feel and appreciate their implicit bias? Here at the dawning of the 21st century, the issue of race remains unprocessed. We don't seem willing and able to look closely enough at ourselves to make the shifts and changes needed in our soon to be majority "minority" white supremacist society. Some of our teachers are willing, but they need help. Who will help them learn to process their racial understanding of superiority/inferiority? Do they need to learn about their own biases implicit and explicit, before they can undertake teaching in a racist society. Why will help our teachers teach an accurate American history? Here we are post-slavery, post-jim crow, post blatant, legal discrimination and still we aren't willing to look at ourselves and our white supremacism past and present. Who will help our teachers teach a non-racist curriculum? Are we willing to look at ourselves and teach our children something closer to the truth about America? Are we willing? Or will we melt, like snowflakes in the sun?
