A student needs to be aware of what the term social justice means. Being aware of their place in the world and how they can affect the world around them is a great unit to teach. We need to
allow students to understand how much their actions can do.
Students and teachers need to work together to create a classroom environment in which teachers can actualize the above practices and in which both students and teacher can raise questions, challenges, differences, and problems while conducting political analyses of society.”- Gustein
“Along the way they change the way they define themselves in relation to the world and their actions on it.”- Gustein
“Social movements attempt to shift power from power holders toward the movement’s constituent base.” Sleeter
Every child has the ability to make a change.
We must take a hold of the power we all hold to think differently, to take a step in a different direction.
“viewing multicultural education as a social movement suggests that effort must be expended to cultivate
support among segments of the broader public that are unaware of, or indifferent to, multicultural.”- Sleeter
“..deepens their understanding of society which leads to engagement in social movements, at whatever level people are capable of participating given the daily struggles for survival.”- Gustein
At first glance it seems as if it’s an educational setting that spits out facts about different cultures.
After reading, it’s a necessary curriculum to make students aware of injustices in the world so they can
be aware. Awareness is the first step to making a change.
