Creating Classrooms of and for Activism at the Intersections of Class, Race, Ethnicity, Gender, and Disability
Nishida, Akemi; Fine, Michelle
Multicultural Perspectives, v16 n1 p8-11 2014
In this article the authors describe pedagogy which rests on commitments to solidarity, activism, and intersectional understandings of personhood and social (in)justices. The authors seek to create accessible classrooms where our many selves and critical consciousness can be in (dis)comforting conversation with one another. Then, they hope to bring activism to the streets.
