Reviews

Reauthoring Savage Inequalities is groundbreaking, timely, and exquisite. It is both a response to Kozol's scholarship and a call to do research differently. In Savage Inequalities, Kozol exposes a particular deficit-driven narrative that plagues urban education. It depicts hopelessness and victimization. But what happens when insiders shape our understanding of education, oppression, and liberation? A fuller, richer, more complicated rendering begins to emerge. This edited volume draws us away from the narrow gaze of white interlocutors and exposes the fragility of scholarship saturated with whiteness and Eurocentricity. Reauthoring Savage Inequalities is what research becomes when you don't merely study the community but serves its people. When you are them and they are you. This kind of kinship leads us to grander validity and deeper answers-not merely in our findings related to urban education but in our work as human beings. - Vajra M. Watson, author of Transformative Schooling: Towards Racial Equity in Education
