Developing Transformative Leaders to Support Everyday Antiracism Practices
Abstract
Mr. Frank is the principal of Ridgeview School and is concerned with the increase of racially connected bullying in his school. This case illustrates the importance of transformative leadership in promoting antiracism practices. It focuses on transformative learning that supports a deep change of self. The activities are aimed at empowering educators to deconstruct self and “cultures of power” that affect marginalized students and prevent real antiracism practices. This supports transformative leadership theory: critical reflection of self and society to lead everyday antiracism practices in schools.
