Summary:Even if you are relatively new to the held of teaching, one spends nearly two decades in school prior to becoming a professional teacher. Mirra and Garcia propose that education should be a tool used to design new futures and that youth must be respected as experts in their communities who are ready and able to create equitable social change. In another great featured piece in this issue, Dr. Sarah Bonner recalls a remarkable experience when she invited students to share their individual perspectives in critical analysis of their learning spaces in their rural middle school.
