Contributors

"This collection of essays exploring teaching and learning that could foster social justice adds important knowledge to an area of research and practice that is underdeveloped. We need more discussions like these in order to facilitate education and classrooms committed to social well-being and cultural and political innovation. Social Justice Pedagogies will be of interest to educators and activists working in and outside formal educational spaces, as well as educators and community workers across disciplines."
Miglena S. Todorova, Associate Professor of Social Justice Education, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto

"Social Justice Pedagogies is nothing less than a roadmap for changing the way we teach in post-secondary education. The authors gathered here, from across the humanities and social sciences, reflect in profound ways on how their disciplines might be reimagined as contexts for social change. Brimming with detailed, well-tested examples of transformative pedagogical strategies – for the classroom, field class, and community meeting – this important book should interest any teacher committed to social justice."
Will Straw, James McGill Professor of Urban Media Studies, McGill University

"Social Justice Pedagogies is an original collection with sound scholarship that will be useful for instructors. This book makes an important contribution to pedagogical thinking and the teaching of social justice at the university level and will also be helpful in community organizing."
Rosa Bruno-Jofré, FRSC, Faculty of Education cross-appointed to the Department of History, Queen’s University
