About this title: These essays face squarely the problems of teachers who do not want to teach, and of students who do not want to learn, of racism and sexism in the classroom, and of the gift of freedom that is, for Hooks, the teacher's most important goal. Raising many concerns central to the field of critical pedagogy, Hooks connects them to feminist thought, an area that continues to be underrepresented in work on teaching. At the same time, she also reshapes feminist thinking, bringing to it a vigorous engagement with race and class.

Description: New. Widely admired as a leading black intellectual, hooks is also an inspired teacher. Her ideas and essays about teaching fundamentally rethink democratic participation and face squarely the problems of today's classrooms, including racism and sexism. read more
"bell hooks is truly an inspiring writer. I learned that I want to become just like her as an educator! I believe the engaged pedagogy and critical pedagogy could transform classrooms from passive places where the teacher is the "sage on the stage" to active places where the teacher is the "guide on the side". Student-centered and student-driven..."
"bell hooks inspires by discussing those who inspired her, particularly Paulo Freire, and the way he has influenced not only her education, pedagogical methods as a professor, but a person. Will be enjoyed by educators, and others, who do not mind a leftist orientation(feminist etc.) and strong self-reflective essays with an academic lean."
"found significant insights that described redundant reactions of people unprepared to have young professionals of color in a traditionally middle class, white profession. answered many of my "why's" this is the 4th book by hooks that i've read."
