Description: This edited collection illustrates different possibilities for social justice practice in various grade levels, disciplines, and interdisciplinary spaces in P-12 education.

Review Quotes: "Teachers, and teacher educators, agree that meaningful education must be oriented toward equity and justice. These terms and concepts are ubiquitous in educational texts, but are rarely illustrated in action. This text fills that gap, providing much-needed real-world models of justice-oriented teaching practices. Spanning a wide range of grade levels, disciplines, and pedagogical approaches, authors present methods, projects and materials based on classroom experiences. The editors have collected narrations of practice that will inspire educators in their efforts to apply critical approaches to interdisciplinary, liberatory instruction in ways that will benefit all learners." --Julie Gorlewski, Associate Professor of Teaching and Learning, Virginia Commonwealth University
