The Civic Literacy series showcases how the knowledges, skills, and commitments of English language arts can explore traditional understandings of "civic education" and in its place offer creative possibilities for civic world-building in K–12 classrooms and communities.

This, the third volume of the series, features contributions from educators, researchers, and students to explore:

The essays in the Civic Literacy volumes share innovative stories and strategies of how literacy has been leveraged by youth, teachers, and community members to imagine and enact equitable social futures. The first volume focuses on the future-oriented civic literacy learning taking place in K–12 classrooms. The second volume examines the transformative learning that occurs in out-of-school informal literacy learning environments.
