Its basic goals have been: (1) to develop a critical, activist, and inter-disciplinary discourse on law and society affecting Latinas/os/x, and (2) to foster both the development of coalitional theory and practice as well as the accessibility of this knowledge to agents of social and legal transformative change.This slim volume tells the story of LatCrit's growth and influence as a scholarly and activist community. Francisco Valdes and Steven W. Bender offer a living example of how critical outsider academics can organize long-term collective action, both in law and society, that will help those similarly inclined to better organize themselves. Part roadmap, part historical record, and part a path forward, LatCrit: From Critical Legal Theory to Academic Activismshows that with coalition, collaboration, and community, social transformation can take root.Racism in educationfast(OCoLC)fst01737534Race discriminationLaw and legislationfast(OCoLC)fst01086474Discrimination in higher educationLaw and legislationfast(OCoLC)fst00895079Discrimination in educationLaw and legislationfast(OCoLC)fst00895042Critical pedagogyfast(OCoLC)fst00883676LAW / JurisprudencebisacshCritical pedagogyUnited StatesRace discriminationLaw and legislationUnited StatesRacism in educationUnited StatesDiscrimination in higher educationLaw and legislationUnited StatesDiscrimination in educationLaw and legislationUnited StatesUnited StatesfastRacism in education.Race discriminationLaw and legislation.Discrimination in higher educationLaw and legislation.Discrimination in educationLaw and legislation.Critical pedagogy.LAW / Jurisprudence.Critical pedagogyRace discriminationLaw and legislationRacism in educationDiscrimination in higher educationLaw and legislationDiscrimination in educationLaw and legislation340.071173Valdes Francisco1217678Bender Steven1140280MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910554276503321LatCrit2815926UNINA
