Abstract
Freire’s work on emancipation played crucial roles in understanding the role of class, race, and gender in education, three key sociological variables investigated ad nauseam in the political sociology of education for their importance on measuring social problems like inequality, poverty and the like. This session will offer papers that analyze and reinvent Freire’s work and scholars’ work on Freire through various themes, his prominent worldwide impact; and Freire in/directly influenced and was influenced by various scholars/activists. This session will offer multiple perspectives from different narrative viewpoints and social-historical contexts of Freire’s influences and influences upon Freire. The presenters will have discussions within and across these themes to deconstruct, reinvent, and help structure praxis of Freire’s work.
