The authors focus on literacy praxis that reflect how students--with the loving, critical support of teachers and teacher educators--engage in resistance work and collaborate for social change. Each chapter theorizes how students and adults initiate and\/or participate in important justice work, how their engagements are situated within a critical literacy lens, and what their engagements look like in schools and communities. The authors also explore the importance of this work in the context of current sociopolitical developments, including police shootings, deportations, and persistent educational inequities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe most recent work of both emerging and well-known literacy and social justice scholars.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamples of student activism across multiple geographic contexts in the United States.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAccessible questions to help guide discussions related to the overall topics, theories, and methods.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eArtifacts, such as images and artwork, from students and educators to allow readers multiple ways of entering the text.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eValerie Kinloch\u003c\/strong\u003e is the Renée and Richard Goldman Dean of the University of Pittsburgh School of Education.
