[From Publisher]

"A powerful collection of essays that chronicles the perspectives and lived experiences (in narrative form) of 34 diverse pedagogues (some likely familiar, some likely not). Each featured pedagogue has contributed in important and varied ways to the meaning, impact, and influence of critical pedagogy ... inspires readers to act with both "honorable anger" and a "pedagogy of love" in their work to confront and address injustices and their impact on society." -- Midwest Book Review, Feb 2019
