Essentials of Critical Participatory Action Research (CPAR) shows how researchers can commit to doing participatory research projects WITH, not ON, marginalized individuals, and in so doing, help document, challenge, and transform social injustices. The authors provide rich examples of their work with diverse communities such as LGBTQIA+ young adults, prisoners, domestic violence survivors, and asylum-seekers. Ethical concerns are explored in depth as readers are challenged to embrace the mantra of "No research on us, without us."
The first substantial and focused critical study of Jesmyn Ward, now one of the most widely read, taught and studied contemporary authors Includes a co-authored introduction, twenty chapters and 'Afterword' Moves beyond existing Ward scholarship which focuses predominantly on two texts Gives space and attention to Ward's substantial body of non-fiction work This collection of essays provides a thorough and probing account of an author who is quickly becoming one of the most read, studied and taught contemporary writers, but whose work remains underrepresented in scholarship. It is broad and ambitious in scope, mirroring the richness of Ward's oeuvre, and it brings together a diverse and dynamic range of approaches that reflect the scholarly conversations in which Ward is embedded.
PAR EntreMundos: A Pedagogy of the Americas challenges the standard narratives of "achievement" to think about how Latinx students can experience an education that forges new possibilities of liberation and justice. Growing Latinx student populations have led to concerns about "assimilating" them into mainstream academic frameworks. This book offers an alternative, decolonizing approach that embraces complex Latinx identities and clears a path toward resisting systems of oppression. Educating Latinx students should involve more than just helping them achieve in school but rather having them recognize their agency to transform the larger structure of education to promote justice-oriented practices. The authors offer a framework for such transformation by honoring their theoretical lineages, proposing a set of guiding principles, and sharing stories about collective social action within and outside Latinx communities. PAR EntreMundos: A Pedagogy of the Americas is a practice of liberation and freedom.
