About this title

Synopsis

Bring transformative change to early childhood education. 

We Are Who We’re Waiting For bridges rigorous research with actionable tools for change, delving into child development theories that go beyond the basics, centering on humanity, children’s rights, and intersectionality. Widely respected author Kisa Marx calls for a transformative approach to dismantle systemic barriers and advocates for practices that genuinely center each child’s identity, culture, and potential, turning personal resolve into a broader call for systemic change in early childhood education. 

Through personal narratives and heart-centered storytelling, each chapter guides readers through deconstructing, reconsidering, redefining, and reimagining early childhood education practices. The book provides a rich source of case studies, theoretical insights, and practical applications that promote equity and inclusion in early childhood education, making it an invaluable resource for scholars and practitioners alike.
