These are challenging times for leaders who believe schools must teach history honestly, be laboratories of democracy, and honor differences while finding common cause. This book, grounded in two decades of work in diverse school settings, provides guidance to help us remain steadfast in the work.

Racial justice: Beyond proclamations, how can school leaders reallocate resources to support substantive anti-racist school reforms?
Democratic practice: How can school leaders who have significant authority in a hierarchical system wield their power in support of democracy?
Restorative justice: With time in short supply, how can schools truly embrace restorative practice, which calls for slowing down to repair and prevent harm?
Student activism: How can school leaders uphold rules while also supporting students who disrupt in the name of justice?
Counter-extremism: White supremacist threats are a danger to our communities. How can school leaders carefully confront the extremism of these troubled times?
Compelling stories drawn from contemporary school contexts help illuminate each of these questions in fine detail. Each chapter concludes with a list of concrete actions every school leader can take in pursuit of answers. Administrators, teacher leaders, and those who support school reform with justice in mind will find both practical guidance and inspiration.

Elijah Hawkes has been an educator for more than two decades in school communities known for their commitments to justice, including ten years as a middle/high school principal in central Vermont, and six years as founding principal of the James Baldwin School in New York City.
