Delpits Essay

When I was reading Delpits essay I didn't quite understand what she was getting at when talking about teaching the students as an open-classroom. As I was reading along I started to notice that she was comparing how white and black kids learned in a city school. I discovered that her comparison were leading to how teachers can change the classroom to make it more comfortable for the students to learn and to make sure that they learn at the same pace. I like the way Delpit than took the opinions of her friends and than told how she felt through her point of view. It seem as though in the end her open-classroom idea didn't work because no one wanted to try in progress this idea to make it work in the classroom.
