Gwen Gorzelsky, assistant professor in the Composition Program at Wayne State University, is developing a service-learning initiative that involves undergraduate students and their graduate student instructors in Detroit communities.
"Gorzelsky has . . . produced a unique and powerful roadmap for
teachers who believe the classroom should be a vehicle for social
change."
--Steve Parks, Syracuse University
"A delightfully unusual book. It is also distinctive in the wide
expanse of experiential and historical ground it covers in its
treatment of change--so much so, that it's nearly impossible to
describe the work in such a way as to give an adequate sense of its
scope and possible uses. Compelling."
--JAC
"One of the few extended treatments of literacy and social change
available anywhere. From past to present, Gorzelsky connects the
elusive dots among social movements, literacy, and personal
change--and does so through an original and courageous mix of
psychology, history, ethnography, and self-revelation."
--Deborah Brandt, University of Wisconsin-Madison
