What's this blog about?

I teach several courses under the broad topic of "Multicultural Education," prioritizing social justice issues of access, power/privilege, & narrowing the academic achievement gap. I am a person of color and I almost always have a white co-teacher. We include topics, such as: racism, sexism, heterosexism, ableism, ethnocentrism, deculturalization, transforming curriculum, etc. This is a place where I post information that we teach; lesson plans for activities; and resources we use and/or which are shared with me by my adult students.

Secretary Is Top Job for Women -- Just Like 60 Years Ago!

“Secretary” was the sort of role most common for women in 1950, when career opportunities were -- ahem -- more limited, to say the least, and only a tiny fraction of women held college degrees. And it’s still the most popular role now, despite the facts that more women earn graduate degrees than men, and women are soaring across a vast number of industries.
