This book talks about the lack of people of colour in our textbooks, learning resources, and educational facilities. This is an educational book will highlight the misconceptions of what a good education is and will hopefully create a wave of change in our educational resources particularly textbooks. As a child in a classroom, my first feeling was of alienation. My first identity was of an outsider. My first taste was the sourness of marginalisation. My first glance at the world was of an excluding intellectual circle. My first sound was of an explosion of questions about my roots and culture. My first thoughts were of being dominated by someone stronger than me. That someone turns out to be a system. Our educational system in Europe, Australasia and the Americas. At this point, I've seen so many old white guys' work in my classes that it's a safe assumption that whoever did this work I'm studying was an old white guy. I hate that I make that assumption. I hate that I don't hear about the rich, fullness of other cultures and the wonderful, WONDERFUL work they have done. Given that whites make up a minority of the world, they are the majority of people I have learned about in school. This is not limited to the topic of English, science and mathematics, but does include white people's history, geographical countries. Whites are not the only civilized thinkers of the world, and definitely not the only ones to work in our intellectual circles. Even when you bring up the work of a person of colour (POC) or woman, a bio is never mentioned.
