This deep engagement of the expansive, exacting and dissident work of bell hooks is diverse, exciting, thorough, and woven through with love. This is how we teach each other freedom.

I was blessed to participate and collaborate with bell hooks in all three of her ground-breaking books on education. And, now I am blessed again to have this important and wonderful anthology to guide and provoke me. The essays in bell hooks's Radical Pedagogy are thoughtful, rigorous and engaging. They not only pay tribute to bell hooks and her legacy, they inspire us to reexam and reconsider our work as teachers and advocates of embracing and affirming "education as the practice of freedom." Reading bell hooks's Radical Pedagogy is to engage in the very critical project initiated by bell hooks. The editors and contributors have produced an outstanding example of bell hooks' "engaged" pedagogy and scholarship. This is a book that should be read by every stakeholder involved in education today.

This is a fabulous collection of conversations with bell about her notion/s of pedagogy. For bell pedagogy was a life practice, with no borders, and is not contained in a classroom. Learning, experimenting, listening, wondering, imagining and then acting on this knowledge was life's activity. For bell the personal was political and public and so was her commitment to finding and creating the theoretical frames for action. The writers here will assist you in seeing the revolutionary practice that nurtured bell's brilliance.
