With case studies and narratives, North (curriculum and instruction, U. of Maryland, College Park) explains what academicians and practitioners can do when they work together. Using the experiences, studies and discussions of four K-12 teachers participating in her research, she explains how commitment to social justice affects such central issues as functional literacy. Her discussion encompasses developing literacy programs from social justice theories, understanding the limits of critical literacy in isolation, studying and applying regional literacy, using democratic values in education, supporting visionary literacy, rallying support from school leaders and debating about hope. The narratives describing the activities of the working group are interesting and informative, particularly for those beginning their commitment to social justice in teaching, and the author includes excellent methodologies and resources.
