***THIS IS A DIGITAL ZINE, PLEASE ADD YOUR EMAIL WHEN ORDERING*** About Has Oppression Found a Home in You? is a holistic workbook-zine that combines political writings, reflections and activities that investigate the idea of home and how this sacred place is desecrated by anti-child ageism. It includes 30+ pages of reflective introspection on 'age-trauma' (term coined by me). Age-trauma is the result of ageist repression in our childhoods which I investigate in two oppressive structures: school and family. As both a workbook and zine, Has Oppression Found a Home in You? can be used for radical education as well as personal contemplation. I hope reading and working through it can be a healing and eye-opening experience. As its in digital format, you can print if you prefer to doodle on paper, scribble your notes with an e-pen if that's your style or just write out your thoughts separately. There are numerous ways to engage with this work and can be something to come back to at various point in life, as a child, adult, parent, teacher, elder, younger or alien :) _________ How To Purchase I spent 14+ hours working on this project (!) but have priced the workbook-zine at a sliding scale for accessibility. You may fit into more than one of the tiers and if so, choose with your privilege in mind. • Tier One is free for young people, unhoused folks and asylum seekers/refugees who cannot access paid tiers.

The phrase "teaching for social justice" is often used, but not always explained. What does it look like to teach for social justice? What are the implications for anti-oppressive teaching across different areas of the curriculum? Drawing on his own experiences teaching diverse grades and subjects, leading author and educator Kevin Kumashiro examines various aspects of anti-oppressive teaching and learning in six different subject areas. Celebrating 10 years as a go-to resource for K-12 teachers and teacher educators, this third edition of the bestselling Against Common Sense features: * A new introduction that addresses the increased challenges of anti-oppressive teaching in an era of teacher evaluations, standardization and ever-increasing accountability. * End of chapter teacher responses that provide subject-specific examples of what anti-oppressive teaching really looks like in the classroom. * End of chapter questions for reflection that will enhance comprehension and help readers translate abstract ideas into classroom practice. * Additional readings and resources to inspire students to further their social justice education. Compelling and accessible, Against Common Sense continues to offer readers the tools they need to begin teaching against their common sense assumptions and toward social justice. 1 Tables, black and white

" Book Synopsis This updated third edition of the immensely popular Doing Anti-Oppressive Practice introduces students to anti-oppressive social work, its historical and theoretical roots and the specific contexts of anti-oppressive social work practice. Key to this practice is the understanding that the problems faced by an individual are rooted in the inequalities and oppression of the socio-political structure of society rather than in personal characteristics or individual choices. Moreover, the contributors show that social justice and social change -- working against racism, sexism and class oppression -- can and must be a key component of social work practice. Drawing on concrete examples from specific practice contexts, personal experience and case work, including child welfare, poverty, mental health, addictions and disability, the contributors demonstrate how to translate social justice theory into everyday practice. This new edition adds chapters on working with refugee, immigrant and racialized families; children; older adults; cognitive behavioural therapy; and using social media as a tool for social change. Review Quotes A key resource for social work students, educators, researchers and practitioners.--Susan Preston, School of Social Work, Ryerson University Buy this book. Make it required reading for every incoming social work student. The best resource I've ever found to help with the challenging task of radiating social justice theory into the heart of social work practice. Accessible, real, and encouraging, Doing Anti-Oppressive Practice shines the way forward for our entire profession.--Elaine Spencer, Social Work Faculty, Red Deer College The second edition of Doing Anti-Oppressive Practice, edited by Donna Baines, is an expansive and insightful book that articulates and interrogates, through the voices of sixteen of the best social worker educators today, the scope of contemporary social injustice concerns and the remedies to be found anti-oppression theory and practice. The collective works centre marginalized and silenced voices, and articulate the praxis of anti-oppression; that is, what we as social work students, practitioners, and educators must know to be anti-oppressive in theory and in practice in our work with multiple populations. The book is a pleasure to read and the highlighting of key terms throughout the book, especially, will be valuable for students at all levels. This collection is a joyous act of "epistemic disobedience" and is sure to become the seminal work in anti-oppression theory and practice.--Raven Sinclair, School of Social Work, University of Regina About the Author Donna Baines holds the Chair in Social Work and Policy Studies and is a Professor at the University of Sydney, Australia.
