Summary: Award winning book
Review: Winner of the RESILIENT RESISTANCE:THE MYERS OUTSTANDING AWARDS 2003!

Kevin K. Kumashiro, director of the Center for
Anti-Oppressive Education, El Cerrito, CA.,

Kumashiro is first and foremost an educator. He is committed to
empowering educators to deal with anti-oppressive techniques and strategies in the everyday classroom situation. In Troubling Education he highlights the negotiations necessary to introduce sensitive subjects.

Kumashiro interviews activists and makes us question ourselves and the role we play in contributing to social problems and bringing about social change.

The book was easy to read and hard to put down. I hope he writes more on the subject!!!
