One contributing author declares community participation and social activism are the keys to his professional growth. For another, multicultural understanding comes when she learns to unveil the masks of insidious negative stereotypes. Through these stories, we share their struggles as these educators come to understand diversity among ethnic groups and cultures, resolve conflicts between curricular and multicultural goals, and find authentic models and mentors for their students. But most important, we learn how this laudatory group of educators has come to realize that they need to know themselves if they are to truly know their students. Well-grounded in education theory, \u003ci\u003eBecoming Multicultural Educators\u003c\/i\u003e is both personal and inspiring. This is the book that will help teachers, and those who prepare them, blossom as educators and human beings.  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eGeneva Gay\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of education at the University of Washington, Seattle.
