Culturally responsive restorative leadership centers restorative justice as a process for school transformation. This book draws upon nearly a decade of combined fieldwork in public secondary schools across the country, helping the reader unpack challenges that leaders face as they implement restorative practices in their schools. Chapters explore the most common pressures facing leaders--within the school community and beyond—and how leaders can use these challenges as opportunities to reinforce their commitment to and purpose for restorative practices. This book helps principals earn buy-in from their school community, implement sustainable restorative systems, increase equity, and promote school cultural transformation. Chapters also include prompts for reflection to help the reader brainstorm how to approach these challenges in their own contexts. This is a timely and important book for aspiring and practicing educational leaders.

Reviews for Culturally Responsive Restorative Leadership in Education: Necessary Dilemmas for Transforming Schools

""Indeed, there are many books written on restorative justice, and others on equity, and yet others on culturally responsive and sustaining education. But no other book brings these together, and does so for folks leading our schools...This is the blueprint for which we have all been waiting."" Muhammad Khalifa, Beck Professor of Education, Ohio State University, USA. ""Hilary Lustick has a long history of examining school leadership through a restorative justice lens - one that centers on culturally responsive and sustaining practices. This book continues that work, providing a theoretically grounded and research-driven framework for leading restorative justice projects in educational spaces. Both aspirational and practical, Lustick offers provocative reflections and pragmatic applications. This will be a great resource for principals, teacher-leaders, and anyone committed to more restorative schools."" Kathy Evans, Professor of Teacher Education, Eastern Mennonite University, USA.
