Teaching as Justice is both inspiring and deeply practical. Elizabeth Soslau demonstrates how rigorous instruction, student voice, and civic engagement can coexist to create classrooms where academic excellence and social responsibility reinforce one another. This is an essential resource for educators and school leaders committed to preparing students not only for success in school, but for meaningful participation in their communities.

Teaching as Justice is the guide all teachers need to support students to see themselves with power, criticality, and agency. Through storytelling and practical resources, Soslau honors the time, talent, experiences, and ambitions of teachers who have and want to critically transform their curriculum. With the My Voice framework as a backbone, together, students and teachers have so much to gain from critical service learning. Teaching as Justice makes a more just world through civic action not just possible, but inevitable.
