White Man White Space to White Man Black Space: A Critical Autoethnography by a Privileged White Educational Leader

The purpose of this critical autoethnographic study was to explore, (a) therole that race played in shaping my responses to demographic changes in the public school district that I served, (b) how I could use this new understanding to improve my practice as an educational leader, and (c) how my research and experience could serve as a model for other White leaders, who like me, represent most educational leaders serving all students and in particular, African American children.
