Re-imagining Educational Reform: Public Schools and the Nurture of Consciousness.
Finkelstein, Barbara
Educational Studies: A Journal in the Foundations of Education, v14 n2 p103-11 Sum 1983
A comparative analysis of urban public schools as learning environments during the early 1900s shows that although public schools in the early 1900s were ageist, sexist, and racist, they were, nonetheless, havens of liberating possibility. Schools today, although stripped of racism, sexism, and ethnocentricity, are nurseries of oppression. (RM)
