Feminist Teacher
Feminist Teacher intends to expand the circle of discussion to educators in the k-12 sector who consider their teaching practices to be feminist in design and implementation. The goal of the blog is to make feminist teachers visible to each other and to the larger world of educators, as we move forward with our important work.
Feminist pedagogy is one in which issues of race, class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, religion, age, ability, politics, and human rights—among others—inform a teacher’s philosophical vision that shapes not only content but also action, both that of the teacher as well as the students in the classroom and beyond.
The Feminist Teacher blog ultimately inspires action: the action of the mind and of the heart for greater gender, racial, and economic justice.
