Inhaltsangabe

Embracing Trauma in the Classroom articulates a framework for understanding trauma not as a merely biological or individual reality, but as a social production that is inseparable from systems of power and oppression. Drawing from social theorists, educators, and on-the-ground activists, this book considers how a politically conscious understanding of trauma rooted in the lived experiences of oppressed and dehumanized people can trouble and reform social justice education. Moving between theory, practice, and experience, Embracing Trauma in the Classroom queries how social justice educators can move forward at a time when the world feels confused and classrooms are under attack. Trauma doesn't get left at the door when class starts; it's always all around us, and it unavoidably affects teaching and learning. This text offers concrete skills and understanding for educators to apply in a wide range of classrooms and educational settings, both on campuses and in the community.
