Abstract

The changing demographics of the school population have been a topic of concern among educators at all levels. Professional organizations, reform reports, and accrediting agencies have all called for curriculum change that is inclusive of the cultures that are represented in schools in the United States. There have always been students in our classrooms which we did not see or hear. However, this invisibility is being challenged. “Old silences have been shattered; long repressed voices are making themselves heard” (Greene, 1993, p. 185).
