In this updated volume of Teaching Black Girls: Resiliency in Urban
Classrooms, Venus E. Evans-Winters uses qualitative research methods
to interpret and discuss school resilience in the lives of African
American female students. The book demonstrates how these girls are
simultaneously one of the most vulnerable, and one of the most
resilient group of students. Teaching Black Girls implements
alternative approaches to the study of the intersection of race,
class, and gender on schooling, deliberately highlighting how students
growing up and attending schools in urban neighborhoods are
educationally resilient in the face of adversity. Through dialogue and
self-reflection, the author and participants in the ethnographic study
documented here reconstruct and tell stories of resilience to derive
practice that is both gender and culturally relevant. Teaching Black
Girls has research and practice implications for graduate students,
advanced pre-service teachers, and school practitioners.
