Mica Pollock, editor of Everyday Antiracism, discusses to what it takes for those working in schools to match their speech to their values, giving all students an equal opportunity to thrive. Schooltalk describes how the devil is in the oft-dismissed details: the tossed-off remark to a student or parent about the community in which she lives; the way groups are discussed about test scores; the communication breakdowns between counsellors, teachers, and staff that cause kids to fall needlessly through the cracks; or the deflating comment to a young person about her college or career prospects.
