She has been a consultant for public school systems, colleges, and community groups across the country. Delpit is the author of Other People’s Children: Cultural Conflict in the Classroom (1995) and The Skin That We Speak: Thoughts on Language and Culture in the Classroom (co-edited with Joanne Kilgour Dowdy, 2002).
