What does it mean to teach for social justice? Drawing on his own classroom experiences, leading author and educator Kevin K. Kumashiro examines various aspects of anti-oppressive teaching and learning and their implications for six different subject areas and various grade levels. Celebrating 20 years as a go-to resource for K-12 teachers and teacher educators, this 4th edition of the bestselling Against Common Sense: Teaching and Learning Toward Social Justice features:

  • An expanded introduction that examines teaching in today's context of censorship and attacks on diversity, democracy, and teaching truth
  • New sections on teacher preparation, social studies, reading and writing, and the arts
  • Updated lists of resources in every chapter
  • Graphics, teacher responses, and discussion questions to enhance comprehension and help translate theory into practice across the disciplines
  • Compelling and accessible, the 4th edition of Against Common Sense continues to offer readers the tools they need to begin teaching against their commonsensical assumptions and toward democracy and justice.
