I selected the article “Profoundly Multicultural Questions,” by Sonia Nieto to focus my journal entry based on my professional practice and personal interest. Nieto questions educational inequality, as well as, provide statistics and discussions concerning the multicultural education and achievement gaps between different races and ethnicities.
The author asks four main questions to demonstrate the inequitable educational system that is growing and expanding to provide all students of all backgrounds an equal chance to learn. Nieto states that there needs to be more than ethnic tidbits and cultural sensitivity, as well as, a deep commitment to social justice and equal access to resources
