Social justice is a philosophy that has gathered momentum over the past few years to bring to light the inequities that exist within our society. In the field of education, social justice illuminates the challenges that marginalized students and minority students face compared to other students. Social Justice and Culturally-Affirming Education in K-12 Settings seeks to bring together social scientists, researchers, and other practitioners to delve into social justice issues in K-12 settings and considers the various challenges and future directions that are associated with this field. Covering key topics such as inclusive education, educational reform, and school policies, this reference work is ideal for administrators, policymakers, researchers, academicians, practitioners, scholars, instructors, and students.
