There Are No Safe Places: Pedagogy as Powerful and Dangerous Terrain.
Henry, Annette
Action in Teacher Education, v15 n4 p1-4 Win 1993-94
In this article, a black feminist teacher educator shares personal reflections on learning and teaching about "difference," a political, dangerous, and "unsafe" terrain. She discusses her experiences within the context of misogyny and racism and contrasts her students' struggles against her black female authority in the classroom with the authority of colleagues not of her race and gender.
