Reading, Writing, and Rising Up: Teaching about Social Justice and the Power of the Written Word Volume 2

For almost two decades, teachers have looked to Reading, Writing, and Rising Up as a trusted text to integrate social justice teaching in language arts classrooms. This accessible, encouraging book has been called "a profound work of emancipatory pedagogy" and "an inspiring example of tenacious and transformative teaching." Now, Linda Christensen is back with a fully revised, updated version. Offering essays, teaching models, and a remarkable collection of student writing, Christensen builds on her catalog of social justice scholarship with a breathtaking set of tools and wisdom for teachers in the new millennium.
