Every author in this volume attacked different concerns from an alternative angle. Sometimes the angle was to not have an angle at all. I feel like there was only two really good writings worth mentioning in this review, Gladson-Billings Cultural Relavency which can be compared to another pedagological arguer named Carmen Rodriguez who lists various ways to incorporate teacher as learner, and learner as teacher in an inclusive classroom. I also really loved Sandra Ciscernos Three Skinny Trees poem. It really made an impact on me. I will remember it for a long time to come. ( )
