"This meticulously researched book tells the stories of black women educators who were called upon for their labour as cultural mediators in schools that defined themselves as multicultural but who confronted enforced invisibility by systems that remained rooted in white supremacy. These are the histories we must know if we are to work towards antiracist education in Canada." Kristina R. Llewellyn, University of Waterloo and author of Democracy's Angels: The Work of Women Teachers

Well researched, absorbing, and timely, Schooling the System is a reminder that black women specialize in the wholly impossible." Karen Flynn, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, and author of Moving Beyond Borders: A History of Black Canadian and Caribbean Women in the Diaspora
