Neurodivergent students of color are often overlooked, as research and
teaching strategies predominantly focus on white males in the
classroom. How can we help teachers reach all students to honor their
full humanity, and to understand how ableism – neuronormativity in
particular – and racism intersect on our bodies and brains? JPB
Gerald’s fascinating book offers a blend of narrative and interviews
to show what would help neurodivergent students of color feel more
supported and cared for in schools, and to demonstrate how much better
their lives could be when they feel that love. Each chapter covers a
common trait among neurodivergent students, and concludes with
takeaways and approaches for supporting our youth in the classroom.
Turning from a deficit-based look to a strength-based one, JPB helps
us see how NDSOC students think and learn differently, and how we can
do right by them, supporting them more effectively in the classroom
and beyond.
