As such, faculty must first examine the practices that are at the center of each program. Of importance is for preservice teachers to know and understand the history, injustices, and struggles that communities of color endure. In order to increase that understanding, faculty who teach in teacher preparation programs must take the lead and discover ways to best reach preservice teachers which may take a shift in beliefs. This book presents examples of faculty taking the lead to help preservice teachers understand the social injustices in aspects of early childhood education. This move can lead to highly qualified early childhood teachers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword: Mary Esther Huerta, PhD, Associate Professor of Bilingual Education, Texas State University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Perceptions and Misconceptions: How Best to Prepare Early Childhood Teachers to Work with Dual Language Learners by Cristina Gillanders and Marlene Zepeda\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Preparing Generalist Early Childhood Teachers to Work with \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCulturally and Linguistically Diverse Children Who Have Special Needs by Allegra Montemayor and Karen Walker\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Preservice Teacher Confessions: Why Should I Care about Parents?
