note = {The suspension and expulsion of ethnic minority students, especially
African American males , remains a critical issue in schools today.
This book addresses the root causes of racial disparity in discipline.
Dr. Bireda shows how culturally conditioned beliefs and cultural
misunderstanding negatively impact teacher-student relationships and
interactions in the classroom. In addition, factors in the school
climate that may precipitate and escalate disciplinary events are
examined. Ultimately, Cultures In Conflict provides a framework which
assists administrators and teachers in establishing a dialogue on
issues related to race and culture, and provides a set of strategies
for reducing disciplinary events and referrals.},
