Working and Writing for Change

[W]e believe that the writers in this anthology demonstrate our generation's commitment to move the entrenched issues into forward-looking solutions, to break away from limiting stereotypes and exclusionary institutions, and to imagine a better future. Every generation is considered naïve, utopian in its beliefs, until suddenly, it has changed the world. -Introduction, The Lived Experience of Democracy
The Working and Writing for Change series began during the 100th-anniversary celebrations of NCTE. It was designed to recognize the collective work of teachers of English, Writing, Composition, and Rhetoric to work within and across diverse identities to ensure the field recognizes and respects language, educational, political, and social rights of all students, teachers, and community members. While initially solely focused on the work of NCTE/CCCC Special Interest Groups and Caucuses, the series now includes texts written by individuals in partnership with other communities struggling for social recognition and justice.
