Description

Founded in 1975, ""Radical Teacher"" serves the community of educators who are working for democratic process, peace, and justice. The magazine examines the root causes of inequality and promotes progressive social changes; it is a 'socialist, feminist and anti-racist journal on the theory and practice of teaching.' The first anthology in the publication's history, ""Controversies in the Classroom"" highlights the most exciting writing from recent years.As a collection, ""Controversies in the Classroom"" maintains a strong focus on the personal experience of teachers and the practical realities of teaching, revealing how our nation's educators grapple with imperative issues of race, class, gender in their daily lives. Contributions range from confessional to inspirational and touch all points in between.Indispensable for educators, ""Controversies in the Classroom"" is also a riveting read for progressive thinkers and anyone else interested in how social justice theories translate to the real world.
