Talking Leaves: Narratives Of Otherness (Critical Education And Ethics)

Talking Leaves: Narratives of Otherness (Critical Education and Ethics)

This book represents a 6-year collection of student narratives on otherness. The purpose is to determine from adult accounts what forms of otherness were experienced by school-aged children and young adults in school. The narratives were shared orally and students identified common threads and differences. The project culminated in multicultural lessons that equipped aspiring teachers with knowledge and skills to address conditions of prejudice, social alienation, and inequities.
