""Using case-study analysis, Irby analyzes the complex, multi-faceted, contextual elements composing racial equity initiatives at Central Waters High School (CWHS), a large suburban high school. By examining local experiences along with the proposed organization framework, Irby paints a picture of the beautiful messiness that occurs in stubborn change, when one step forward may mean two steps back. Though many examples are situational, readers will take away conceptual strategies to explore in their own contexts."" -- Choice Magazine
