In this paper, the authors consider the intersections of philosophy and education. Extending the concept of a "minor pedagogy" first presented by Mazzei and Smithers (2020), the authors reorient thinking toward more equitable and just pedagogy as a cultivation of difference.

The wisdom of Audre Lorde informs us that "the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house." The origins of many museum collections are that their objects were obtained by colonizers who became the masters of colonized people's cultural heritage. One of the master's tools has always been to create and benefit from a system of…

Many Faculties of Education in the UK and elsewhere have 'social justice' written into their mission statements. But are they concerned by questions of social justice in education, or has the term become somewhat vacuous and devoid of substantive meaning? The present article subjects recent discourses about social justice in education to scrutiny…

Critical pedagogy scholars have described teaching as an act of love. This love is not a trivial emotion but a conscious action that demonstrates care, respect, honesty, listening, and solidarity. However, translating love and other principles of critical pedagogy into the classroom can be complex and painful. This article discusses our…

Upon the convergence of the twin epidemics of COVID-19 and racial injustice in 2020, the Delaware Dance Education Organization (DDEO) responded by creating and presenting interactive professional development webinars that ranged from sharing how dance history is a microcosm of the world to the impact culture has on personal behaviors.

Prevention science sheds light on complex social policy problems, yet its social impact cannot reach full potential without the uptake of research evidence by policymakers. This mixed-methods study examined the US federal legislation pertaining to justice-involved youth to reveal opportunities for strengthening the use of prevention science in…

Courage has become a superlative attribute in our age. Higher education is newly interested in courage as a centering ideal. That's good: We need more courage on campus these days. What we have instead is a "mistaken" notion of courage. Courage is not screaming against the things that indispose us. Courage is sharing beliefs with…

The article tells stories of how meaning can occur and be made in educational settings, using insights from the work of Patricia Carini and John Dewey to reflect. Dewey's description of what makes an experience meaningful and Carini's calls for an education grounded in meaning and value, along with the role of the Prospect descriptive processes as…

The metaphor of 'viral modernity' denotes an era characterized by communal experiences of how viruses, be they in the shape of physical, virtual or symbolic forms, permeate and shape social and cultural life. To think educative justice in viral modernity thus require a radical move beyond the surfaces of conventional paradigms in order to reach at…

Based on action learning, we propose a new use of digital story telling (DST) in sustainability in management education (SiME). Using thematic analysis (TA), we analyze a set of 63 student generated DST films on the Anthropocene to propose an experiential learning framework based on five key learning domains: the Planetary Boundaries, scale issues…

With 22 states recently passing legislation attacking diversity programs and initiatives on college campuses, it is now, more than ever, important for educators to find a way to protect and foster Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility, and Anti-Racism (DEIA+AR) in postsecondary education in order to prepare graduates to participate in a…

This article describes literacy practices and outdoor activities in high school English classrooms--framed as critical rambling, a pedagogy seeking to raise awareness of issues like climate justice--with illustrations from a dissertation of teacher research and additional student work.

Literature on teachers' transformative social-emotional learning (TSEL) is emerging and focuses on improving teachers' competency in delivering and implementing equity-focused SEL among students. Our study is a scoping review aiming to understand the characteristics of existing literature regarding teachers' TSEL, identify gaps, and discuss future…

Marked by the tireless labour and contributions of Black women, the Black feminist tradition has significantly influenced the field and practice of education, broadly conceived, in which pedagogy plays a vital part. Little scholarship, however, has explored the relationship between Black feminist thought's knowledge validation process and Black…

The statistics are real: Black students are more likely to be suspended, more likely to attempt suicide, and less likely to attend college than their white peers. What can we do to change these realities? Do you want to just talk about race, or do you want to make real change in the lives of children and what they experience every day? Antiracism…
