This book portrays the experiences of self-described “outsider”
or “other” teachers―teachers whose identities set them apart from
their students based upon combinations of race, class, gender
identity, sexual orientation, nationality, ability status,
religion, or other identity characteristics. The teachers
profiled bring experiences of social isolation and difference
into the classroom and demonstrate perspectives and habits of
mind that inform a nuanced approach to interaction with
students.
