NEW RESOURCE ON ANTI-BIAS

Tamar Jacobson has contributed a valuable resource for diversity explorations in her new book Confronting Our Discomfort: Clearing the Way for Anti-Bias in Early Childhood (Portsmouth, NH: Heinemann, 2003). Jacobson explores how a teacher's own attitudes may impact her efforts at anti-bias education. In Confronting, she provides a framework for early childhood educators to confront their own biases head on. In a book that is both deeply personal and highly motivational, Jacobson offers a wealth of ideas for moving ahead with the anti-bias agenda.
