Annotation: (Summary) Teaching and Social Justice provides psychologists and educators with a foundation to create their own multicultural feminist pedagogy. The volume challenges them with self reflection and thought-provoking questions such as: How does one’s multicultural or feminist theoretical orientation influence how one teaches social justice? How does this influence the manner in which one teaches about diversity issues? How might one’s theoretical position influence the organization and structure of the classroom, the interventions used, or classroom dynamics and learning?
