Summary

Why do so many Black children dread going to school each day?

Why are so many Black parents dissatisfied with their children’s school even after moving to the suburbs or paying for private schools?

Why are so many teachers ineffective in educating Black children?

The answer is simple: American schools are not designed to educate Black children. Black children often succeed despite their schools instead of because of them. School can be a fantastic experience that propels Black students ahead in life, but only if both teachers and parents know what Black children's unique needs are and how to meet them.

Sumo Wrestlers and Supermodels will teach you:

  • Why America’s one-size-fits-all colorblind education model fails Black children.
  • How to create an environment that unlocks their full potential.
  • How to evaluate whether a school is effectively educating its Black students.
  • And much more!

You will love this audiobook because an award-winning educator with more than two decades in the classroom uses his personal experiences to provide easy-to-understand methods to save Black children from America's education system that too often ignores their needs.
