For nearly a decade "Teaching for Diversity and Social Justice" has provided educators a comprehensive sourcebook on the theoretical foundations and frameworks for social justice teaching practice. This thoroughly revised second edition continues to provide a comprehensive, accessible introduction to both the theory and practice teachers need to introduce issues of oppression into classrooms. Building on the groundswell of interest in social justice education, the second edition provides coverage of current issues and controversies while remaining faithful to the original mission and format. In addition to a preface, new material throughout and updated references and resources, the book includes four full new chapters on additional forms of oppression - transgenderism, ethno-religious oppression, racism, immigration, and globalism, ageism and adultism - making "Teaching for Diversity and Social Justice" the most authoritative and definitive textbook on socially just teaching practices. A CD-ROM with appendices, handouts, and more is an added bonus for students and professors alike.
