No Citizen Left Behind

Info autore

Meira Levinson is Associate Professor of Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, following eight years as a teacher in the Atlanta and Boston Public Schools.

Riassunto

While teaching at an all-Black middle school in Atlanta, Levinson realized that her students’ individual self-improvement would not necessarily enable them to overcome their historical marginalization. In order to overcome their civic empowerment gap, students must learn how to reshape power relationships through public political and civic action.
