Note from the editor
Pathways and Intersections of Understanding — This publication is dedicated to healthy dialogue on the intersecting themes of identity, education and power. Who we are, how we learn and what we teach all involve various forms of relationship with and to power. That’s what the essays here weave, wrestle and work with. Explore, examine and respond, please.
