Summary: After repeatedly confronting deficit perspectives that asked, 'What's wrong with 'those' kids?', Ladson-Billings decided to ask a different question, one that fundamentally shifted the way we think about teaching and learning. Noting that 'those kids' usually meant Black students, she posed a new question: 'What is right with Black students and what happens in classrooms where teachers, parents, and students get it right?' This compilation of Ladson-Billings' published work on culturally relevant pedagogy examines the theory, how it works in specific subject areas, and its role in teacher education. The final section looks toward the future, including what it means to re-mix CRP with youth culture such as hip hop.
