Description
Education remains the best hope for addressing the social injustices that dominate society. Few educators, however, focus on social justice directly, and even when they do, typically, they make students aware of injustice but they do not teach students how to do something about it. This book introduces a unique form of education - communication activism pedagogy - that teaches students how to use their communication knowledge and skills to promote social justice.
