Rethinking Multicultural Education for the Next Generation builds
on the legacy of social justice multicultural education, while
recognizing the considerable challenges of reaching today's college
students. By drawing on breakthrough research in two fields -
neuroscience and animal studies - Nadine Dolby argues that empathy
is an underlying element of all living beings. Dolby shows how this
commonality can provide a scaffolding for building an exciting new
approach to developing multicultural and global consciousness, one
that has the potential to transform how our students see and relate
to the world around them. This book features classroom vignettes
and reflections, discussion of research with pre-service teachers
on the concept of empathy, and pedagogical suggestions for
fostering the new empathy in students. Incorporating discussions of
animal emotions, sustainability, and our responsibilities to all
living creatures and the planet, Dolby challenges multicultural
educators to rethink both curriculum and pedagogy and to begin new
and bolder conversations about how empathy for humans, animals, and
the planet must be part of a new approach to teaching.
