Rezension
"Simply stated, Black girls matter! Black girls’ voices, minds, and experiences matter. Thank you, Monique Lane, for elevating the brilliance, genius, and intellect of Black girls.
is a beautifully crafted book that is powerful, poignant, and hopeful. For educators who are looking to see theory-to-practice driven work that is situated in culture, gender, care, and agency, this is the book!"

“Dr. Monique Lane opens new dialogue on the place of Black girls in curriculum and instruction from a Black teacher’s standpoint. With so much attention across the nation on the state of Black girls, including on the minds of celebrities and laypersons alike, Dr. Lane’s text provides us much direction for classroom discourse and pedagogy. Black girls’ ‘place’ is everywhere!”—Venus Evans-Winters, editor of the Urban Girls book series
