“Race in the Schoolyard is a wonderful book for social scientists studying race, education, and childhood studies. The book showcases the talents of a gifted fieldworker whose theoretically rich work sits on the cutting edge of a growing body of scholarship examining the social worlds of children. School officials, parents, and, most especially, a new generation of teachers will benefit from these lessons on race.”- American Journal of Sociology
“Instructors may recommend this book to students to whom the topic is surely vital and engrossing and for whom the text will be lively and engaging.”- Contemporary Sociology
