Developing Social Justice Literacy: An Open Letter to Our Faculty Colleagues
Sensoy, Ozlem; DiAngelo, Robin
Phi Delta Kappan, v90 n5 p345-352 Jan 2009
Just agreeing that social justice is important is not enough. Educators must practice social justice or else the concept is meaningless. The author presents four vignettes to illustrate common challenges faced by professors who explicitly teach social justice-oriented education courses, provides a glossary of common terms, and offers recommendations for supporting social justice.
