I'm doing a bit of a poll. It's very simple. Please send me what you believe
to be the 10 (or up to 10) most important books related to equity, social
justice, and/or multicultural education. Please send the book title and
author name. 
 
Feel free to think outside the box. The books don't have to be about
education explicitly and they don't even have to be non-fiction. But I'm
hoping for books that push boundaries, that aren't, in essence, "soft,"
celebrating diversity sorts of things.
 
As an example, I'm listing 5 of the books that have been most inspirational
to my work below.
 
Thanks for your input,
 
Paul
