Educator implicit bias is often experienced by students of varying identities as microaggressions. In this book the authors define implicit bias and microaggressions, identify ways students of varying identities such as race, gender/LGBTQ+, religion, socioeconomic, ability, linguistic and family dynamics, experience microaggressions in schools, and offer an educator's guide to using culturally responsive teaching as an antidote to microaggressions. We also provide specific ways to interrupt microaggressions in schools.

Industry Reviews

In today's political climate, notions of implicit bias and microaggression are received very differently. Some people respond by embarking on serious reckoning and widespread human resource trainings; others respond with disbelief, pushback, and even conspiracy theories. This volume by scholars Bouley and Reinking provides a comprehensive introduction to the varied manifestations, impacts, and counter strategies of implicit bias and microaggressions, serving as a natural bridge to connect people with different opinions. The book's focus on education is particularly helpful for connecting young generations. From discussing explicit misconceptions and stereotypes to languages of implicit bias; impact on students; and practical recommendations for creating an equitable, anti-bias environment, the authors discuss seven forms of microaggression—racial, gender/sexuality, religious/spirituality, economic, linguistic, ableism, and family diversity—which offers a unique intersectional lens on the racial reckoning of equity among existing educators…. [T]he book has well-crafted reflection questions and working tables to guide readers of any level. Recommended. General readers and lower-division undergraduates.
