From Equity Talk to Equity Walk offers practical guidance on the design and application of campus change strategies for achieving equitable outcomes. Drawing from campus-based research projects, this invaluable resource provides real-world steps that reinforce primary elements for examining equity in student achievement, while challenging educators to specifically focus on racial equity as a critical lens for institutional and systemic change.

Colleges and universities have placed greater emphasis on education equity in recent years. Acknowledging the changing realities and increasing demands placed on contemporary postsecondary education, this book meets educators where they are and offers an effective design framework for what it means to move beyond equity being a buzzword in higher education. Central concepts and key points are illustrated through campus examples. This indispensable guide presents academic administrators and staff with advice on building an equity-minded campus culture, aligning strategic priorities and institutional missions to advance equity, understanding equity-minded data analysis, developing campus strategies for making excellence inclusive, and moving from a first-generation equity educator to an equity-minded practitioner.

One of the best books on higher education that uses data driven research providing concrete examples for implementation of equity based principles addressing inequity in academia.

Very quick and good read

I was able to finish this book quickly. It is very actionable and a clear account of the real ways thay educators are unfortunate, but willing examples, of bias in education. It was dense with information and examples

Innovative

I appreciate being challenged though out the book on what it means to have an equity walk.

Really informative

I thought this book was really informative! Just note that if you only listen to the audiobook, the references/citations pages are not read. Only the print copy contains references/citations.

Eye opening

This book was very eye opening. As a black woman, I see areas where I must grow and expand my knowledge and practice regarding equity. This book does not simply highlight the importance and need for this shift in knowledge and practice, but gives practical guidance on how to improve.
