Description

The PK-12 education system in the United States is plagued by anti-democratic and authoritarian ideologies, policies, and power structures, resulting in limited access to quality education and oppressive disciplinary practices for marginalized communities. PK-12 Professionals' Narratives of Working as Advocates Impacting Today's Schools offers a powerful solution to the challenges faced in PK-12 education. Through a collection of counter-narratives, this book empowers educators, counselors, and stakeholders to challenge and disrupt the anti-democratic and authoritarian forces within schools. By sharing personal experiences, strategies, and recommendations, the book inspires academic scholars to reflect, (re)learn, and take action to support students, communities, and personal growth. It serves as a critical teaching tool, encouraging professionals to reimagine their practice and collaborate with others to create inclusive, equitable, and transformative educational environments. This book presents a path toward dismantling oppressive structures and championing an education system that prioritizes the needs and voices of all learners, making it the perfect tool for educating educators on steps for advocacy.
