This volume makes a case for engaging critical approaches for
teaching adults in prison higher education (or "college-in-prison")
programs. This book not only contextualizes pedagogy within the
specialized and growing niche of prison instruction, but also
addresses prison abolition, reentry, and educational equity.
Chapters are written by prison instructors, currently incarcerated
students, and formerly incarcerated students, providing a variety
of perspectives on the many roadblocks and ambitions of teaching
and learning in carceral settings. All unapologetic advocates of
increasing access to higher education for people in prison,
contributors discuss the high stakes of teaching incarcerated
individuals and address the dynamics, conditions, and challenges of
doing such work. The type of instruction that contributors advocate
is transferable beyond prisons to traditional campus settings.
Hence, the lessons of this volume will not only support readers in
becoming more thoughtful prison educators and program
administrators, but also in becoming better teachers who can employ
critical, democratic pedagogy in a range of contexts.
