The Racial Healing Handbook is a practical guide for educators and administrators who are committed to creating racially just schools. This book provides a framework for understanding and addressing the root causes of racial inequity in education, and offers specific strategies for creating a more equitable and inclusive school environment.

The Racial Healing Handbook is divided into three parts:

Part 1: Understanding Racial Inequity in Education

This section provides a historical overview of racial inequity in education in the United States, and explores the current state of racial disparities in schools. The authors argue that racial inequity is not simply a matter of individual prejudice, but rather a systemic problem that is rooted in the history of racism in the United States.
