Other than my shameless promotion of the Numberbet song that I just posted yesterday, I have not posted in several years. Why? Well because I was writing a book with my colleagues Patricia Marshall and Lee Stiff. This book builds on the themes from the Opportunity Gap video I posted a few years ago. From there we published an article in the Kappan magazine, and, now, a book.

Thanks for considering it. I am hoping it will be read in school book clubs, by equity officers, in college settings, and by people interested in re-thinking cultural ideas about intelligence, talent, oppression, and opportunity. We will see. It is not too long, but we think it packs a pretty good punch.
Thanks to all of you for the discussions we have had over the years and for supporting me in my work. Much appreciated! Valerie
Dr. Faulkner,
Will be buying the book Feb. 1 (Its no spend January for me)! Have always admired your passion and dedication to math education especially for minoritized groups. Can’t wait to cross paths again!
Thank you Jessica!
I look forward to working with you again too. Let me know if your school wants me to come out and give a talk. I could do it through Zoom too!
my best,
valerie
