Vivian Gussin Paley, an early childhood educator, for whom issues of exclusion were always foremost in her mind, helps frame a final consideration of the ways our acts of “intervention” often prevent the affordance of genuine dialogue and thus, voice. Socially just engagements, then, are the new beginnings and pedagogical encounters in which we listen and attend in ways that vow humility, recognition, and agency.","PeriodicalId":431018,"journal":{"name":"Music and Social Justice","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125943788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This includes re-evaluating what is meant by the word empowerment, revisiting the purpose of raising hands so that the teacher might decide and control who speaks, challenging current discussion techniques that are ostensibly geared toward teaching students how to respond to the comments of others, and interrogating the ubiquitous practice of classroom rules. The goal established here is to help both teachers and students embrace plurality and difference so that social justice is grounded in our engagements with others.","PeriodicalId":431018,"journal":{"name":"Music and Social Justice","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116293978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
