Activist Art in Social Justice Pedagogy
Shirley R. Steinberg Barbara Beyerbach (Redaktør) R. Deborah Davis (Redaktør) Tania Ramalho (Redaktør)
«“We should tremble with outrage at how arts education is being stolen from the most marginalized students. This is especially true in today’s era of de-conscientization, when the radical counter-normative possibilities of the arts grow increasingly vital. Activist Art in Social Justice Pedagogy is one antidote: a collective and subversive call from artists, educators, and activists to recenter the arts in the lives of youth and an invaluable collection of on-the-ground illustrations of student-centric activist art in motion. Read this book and join the revolution.”—Paul Gorski, Associate Professor of Integrative Studies, New Century College, George Mason University»
