This is an account of two journeys made by the author. The first is ethnographic and involves his encounters with teachers and families in an English ex-mining town in the late 1980s. It is about the different cultural realities they experience and the significant problems that parents, pupils and teachers have in communicating with each other about their children's educational needs. The second involves an epistemological method for understanding the processes taking place during the author's first journey and works toward a practical and process-oriented theory of social reality. This book will prove useful to those involved in relationship difficulties between schools and communities by helping to make sense of those relationships and identifying ways of working toward more common ground. Another theme is that we cannot meaningfully detach our experiences from how we make sense of the social world that surrounds us. Consequently, appropriate elements from the author's personal life are woven into the narrative. Making Sense of Schools and Community Divisions attempts to involve readers in the evolution of ideas, for the same reason. First-time author Dr. Ron Collier based this book on a manuscript he completed in 2001. He found himself referring frequently to the manuscript in his work as a research consultant for mental health services. Collier grew up in a seaside town in Devon and now lives in a small village in Nottinghamshire, England.

Angel, a Black tenth-grader at a New York City public school, self-identifies as a nerd and likes to learn. But she’s troubled that her history classes leave out events like the genocide and dispossession of Indigenous people in the Americas, presenting a sugar-coated image of the United States that is at odds with her everyday experience. “The history I learned in school is simpler,” she says. “The world I live in is a lot more complex.” Angel, like every student interviewed in Discipline Problems, has been identified by teachers as a “troublemaker,” a student whose behavior disrupts classroom norms and interferes with instruction. But her critiques of the curriculum she’s taught speak to her curiosity and insight, crucial foundations for understanding history. Like many students who have been marginalized by systemic racism in American schools, she exposes the shortcomings of her classrooms’ academic environments by challenging both the content and the methods of her education. All too often, these challenges are framed as “troublemaking,” and the students are disciplined for “acting out” instead of being rewarded for their intellectual engagement. Tadashi Dozono, a professor of education and former high school social studies teacher, takes seriously the often-overlooked critiques that students of color who get labeled as troublemakers direct toward their high school history curriculum. He reinterprets “troublemaking,” usually cast as a behavioral deficit, as an intellectual asset and form of reasoning that challenges the “disciplining reason” of classrooms where whiteness is valued over the histories and knowledge of people of color. Dozono shows how what are traditionally framed as discipline problems can be seen through a different lens as responses to educational practices that marginalize non-white students. Discipline Problems reveals how students of color seek out alternate avenues for understanding their world and imagines a pedagogy that champions the curiosity, intellect, and knowledge of marginalized learners.
