The series Teaching/Learning Social Justice,
edited by Lee Anne Bell, is concerned with educational practices
that promote democracy and equality in a diverse society. "Social
Justice" is used as an umbrella term for the many topics and concerns
connoted by the terms democracy, equality, and diversity, while
the term "Teaching/Learning" emphasizes the essential connections
between theory and practice that this series examines. Books in
the series will look at a broad range of educational arenas to examine
the many ways people engage diversity, democracy, and social change
in classrooms and communities. The series will draw on the lived
experiences of people who struggle to critically analyze and challenge
oppressive relationships and institutions, and to imagine and create
more just and inclusive alternatives. The series' focus will be
on both popular education and education in formal institutions,
and its audience is educators and activists who believe in the possibility
of social change through education. |
