Taking Multicultural, Anti-Racist Education Seriously

In the passage it asks the writer, Enid Lee, “Teachers have limited money to buy new

materials. How can they begin to incorporate a multicultural education even if they

don’t have a lot of money?” What I don’t understand is how this question relates to the

topic. If the teacher wanted to make a change in the classroom and make it more cultural,

 money should not be an issue. Changing a class shouldn’t even involve money. It should

include effort and persistence from the teacher and students. Everything else, I have come

to an agreement with but this one particular part, it just boggles my mind. I still haven’t

come to an understanding on how this question remotely relates to a subject such as this.

I believe that a more proper question that they should be asking is how the School

District and the Super Intendent can help raise awareness in a multicultural classroom.
