“…That is, K-12 education has a history of culturally neutral practices, which have served to reinforce power and privilege structures that benefit some identities (e.g., identities given dominant status: White, middle class, English language speaking, and heterosexual) at the expense of other historically oppressed identities (e.g., Black, Indigenous, and people of color [BIPOC]; Fallon et al, 2021a). To interrupt these oppressive systems, serve all students, and ensure schools are welcoming environments that sustain and extend student and family members' cultures, culturally responsive practices are foundational aspects of K-12 education, including classroom management (Fallon et al, 2021a(Fallon et al, , 2021bGay, 2006Gay, , 2013McDonald et al, 2022;Siwatu et al, 2017;Weinstein et al, 2004). Weinstein et al (2004) described the critical aspects of culturally responsive K-12 classroom management: "(a) recognition of one's own ethnocentrism; (b) knowledge of students' cultural backgrounds; (c) understanding of the broader social, economic, and political context; (d) ability and willingness to use culturally appropriate management strategies; and (e) commitment to building caring classrooms" (p. 25).…”
