Critical Pedagogy for Healing: Paths Beyond Wellness, Toward a Soul Revival of Teaching and Learning Kress Tricia
This is the first book to explicitly link healing and wellness practices with critical pedagogy. Working against white Eurocentric narratives of wellness in schools which focus on the symptoms, not the causes, of society's sickness, the authors argues for a soul revival of education which tackles, head on, the causes of dis-ease in society, from institutional racism, colonialism and xenophobia to Christo-centrism and patriarchy. Bringing together scholars from Brazil, Canada, Malta and the USA, the chapters combine critical pedagogy and social justice education to reorient the conversation around wellness in teaching and learning.
The chapters bridge theory and practice, bringing The contributors provide fresh perspectives that address short-term goals of wellness alongside long-term goals of healing in schools and society by attending to underlying causes of social sickness.
