My daughter "Clara" is very confident and focused on academic success. She is 15 and has her sights set on studying STEM at a top liberal arts college, and I think she has it in her to achieve that. I've tried to instill in her a deep awareness of equity issues so that when she encounters unfair treatment in male-dominated environments she'll be equipped to recognize it, name it, and call it out. However, she might now be the one perpetuating injustice in her classes, and I'm worried about how to steer her without undermining the positive traits I've tried to instill in her. Clara has noticed that when she and certain classmates submit similar work, those classmates will often get more points. If she works with a friend on a graph in her science lab class, she might get 8 out of 10 points with a note on what to improve, but a classmate who made a similar graph will get 9 or 10 points and a positive comment. To her this is unfair discrimination and she wants to report the teacher to the principal. However, the classmates are students of color. | know that all of the teachers at her school went to workshops on equitable pedagogy, and I attended a few of them myself because I volunteer at her school and all volunteers had to go to some of the training. One reason why her father and I chose this school district is their commitment to anti-racist education. I think these teachers are striving to ensure that students of color are well represented in the honor roll and competitive for scholarships on an even footing with the white students. I've tried to hint at the racial justice angle, but she isn't having it. To her, this is unequal treatment, and she says that I raised her to speak out against unequal treatment. To me, this is an attempt to make sure students of color are not held back. She keeps threatening to complain to the principal. The only thing holding her back is that Ithreatened to not let her take the driving test after she turns 16 next month if she keeps behaving like an entitled Karen. What should I do? I want a daughter who will speak out against inequitable treatment, who will always be confident and advocate for herself. l also want her to understand that the world isn't just about her and we have to work for equity for everyone if we want something for ourselves.
