| Editorial Review | Education -the kind that is equitable, fulfilling and meaningful-is in short supply in the nation. The authors powerfully provide a practical pathway for educators to move beyond the role of `just a teacher' to embody justice in teaching This book is a beacon for Americans who work in the service of education. --Eric Cooper, President and Founder, National Urban Alliance, and The Huffington Post Education Blogger "Becoming a Social Justice Leader is a book of hope and transformation for educators and will help them meet the needs of all their students. It is audacious, effervescent, and superbly written, and it will help us move from an unconscious to a conscious awareness, changing mindsets and mental models that have led to stereotypes." --Charlotte V. Ijei, Director of Pupil Personnel and Diversity, Parkway School District, MO |
