Review Quotes:
"This timely volume...offer[s] much-needed insights for educators to understand the languages, literacies, cultures, and other assets that children from non-dominant backgrounds bring to their schooling....This volume offers precisely this proleptic lens to help educators see the past, reimagine the future, and act on the present to rewrite the trajectories of long-lasting inequities."
--From the Foreword by Guofang Li, University of British Columbia, Canada
