There is only one place where social education can occur and
flourish: through the voices that create a pedagogy of change. And
it is these voices where the most exciting and provocative moments
can occur for those of us who are passionate about education,
teaching, social justice, equity, and love. As such, social
education is a journey-an endeavor that makes us savor the
experience of the journey more than the destination. And social
education is a journey that ins enhanced through educator and
student voices because it occurs in the most important spaces of
our personal and professional lives. It occurs in the hallways of
the schools we teach, in the staff meetings we attend, in the
mountain villages we venture to visit, in the places we work, and
in the spaces we occupy. Moreover, social education is a unique
kind of journey because it is a human experience that seldom occurs
alone. It happens with our colleagues and our loved ones. It
happens with our students, administrators, and other professionals
who are fighting for the same things that we so fervently believe.
In the end, social education occurs and flourishes in the trenches
because it is the active pursuit of getting our hands dirty in our
endless pursuit for a better and more just world. Social education
is also a narrative, which takes on a different meaning for each
one of us. This is because sooner or later each person that embarks
into the journey of social education develops its own personal
definition of what social education entails through his or her own
personal landscape and knowledge. This personal landscape has been
evolving since we were very young with some of the best examples of
human courage and tenacity in the fight for social justice. Voices
of Social Education: A Pedagogy for Change is a collection of
personal stories. In this volume, academics, teachers, students,
activists, and artists share their personal stories of triumph,
tribulations, and courage in their daily fight for social justice
and equality. The term social education is not defined as a set
number of guidelines or a specific definition; we give the term an
organic fluency to stress that social education is a point of
encounter-a common space-where we can share with each other our
experiences, values, and culture to form a more genuine and just
social experience.
