"A powerful way we connect with a diverse world is by listening to the different stories we are told. These stories are a way of knowing. Therefore, they contain both power & the art of possibility. We need more stories." —bell hooks, Teaching Critical Thinking: Practical Wisdom https://t.co/2TJddbhBqB

“Anytime we do the work of love we are doing the work of ending domination.” - bell hooks, Teaching Critical Thinking: Practical Wisdom
"Positing education as the practice of freedom to balance against (or as an antidote to) the notion of education as credential-collecting, Teaching Critical Thinking: Practical Wisdom seeks to help engaged educators navigate the contradictions and challenges of the academy so as to fulfill our mandate to be of compassionate service to students--as whole people, not simply as someone's future employees." - Rain Taxi
