Description
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.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
"At long last, we have a book that both shows and tells how to teach students to produce not only 'pretty words and adept dialogue, ' but 'searing analysis.' This profound work of emancipatory pedagogy brings together theory, classroom practice, personal narrative, and student work... a must-read for every teacher seeking to reach students that are 'unreachable.'" Geneva Smitherman Distinguished Professor Emerita of English and Director of the African American Language and Literacy Program at Michigan State University; author of Articulate While Black.
