icerl Hooks - Teaching to Transgress : Education as the Practice of Fre - A245durgh

Teaching to Transgress by bell hooks is a thought-provoking collection of essays that challenge preconceptions about education and its role in shaping society.

With a unique blend of personal narrative, critical theory, and fantasy, hooks argues that the teaching establishment has failed students by refusing to acknowledge their particular histories.

She critiques colleagues for using an over-factualized knowledge to deny and suppress diversity in the classroom, and accuses them of enacting rituals of control that are about domination and unjust exercise of power.

Despite this criticism, hooks is not a castigator of her field but rather a gentle critic who offers hope and excitement for the possibility of education to liberate and include.

This inspiring collection will resonate with anyone interested in education, social justice, and personal growth.
