A groundswell of interest has led to a significant advance in understanding and using the arts to promote social justice and education. This landmark volume provides a theoretical orientation to these endeavors Culturally Responsive Arts Education. Examining a range of efforts across different forms of art, various educational settings, and diverse contexts, it foregrounds the assets of imagination, creativity, resilience, critique and cultural knowledge, working against prevailing understandings of marginalized groups as having deficits of knowledge, skills, or culture. Emphasizing the arts a way to make something possible, it explores and illustrates the elements of social justice arts education as a way out of the no way out imposed by dominance and ideology. This book establishes the intellectual baseline for the future use of the arts to advance social justice and education and offers a set of powerful demonstrations showing how this work looks in action.
