Bringing Human Rights Education to US Classrooms presents ten research-based human rights projects powerfully implemented in a range of U.S. classrooms, from elementary school through community college and university. In these classrooms, the students-primarily young people of color who have experienced or witnessed human rights abuses such as discrimination and poverty-are exposed for the first time to thinking about their own lives and the world through an empowering human rights lens. Unique in integrating theory and classroom practice, and in addressing human rights issues with special relevance for communities of color in the US, Katz and Spero provide indispensable guidance for those studying and teaching human rights.
This book offers research-based models of exemplary practice for educators at all grade levels, from primary school to university, who want to integrate human rights education into their classrooms. It includes ten examples of projects that have been effectively implemented in classrooms: two from elementary school, two from middle school, three from high school, two from community college, and one from a university. Each model discusses the scope of the project, its rationale, students' response to the content and pedagogy, challenges or controversies that arose, and their resolution. Unique in integrating theory and practice and in addressing human rights issues with special relevance for communities of color in the US, this book provides indispensable guidance for those studying and teaching human rights.

"This volume offers a unique and powerful approach to global education in the twenty-first century, one that promotes a concern with human rights over a logic of capital accumulation and economic survival. What an important message of possibility that the mastery of content and skills take place in the context of developing intercultural understanding and advocating for equity, access and justice. When we are now asked to increase achievement and to pay more attention to social and emotional learning in our central city schools and classrooms, I can think of no better approach than to develop a generation of transformative intellectuals who connect their academic learning and their self-worth to a love and solidarity with the global human family." - Ernest Morrell, Macy Professor of Education, Columbia University, USA
"Bringing a human rights perspective into US schools and classrooms has always been an elusive challenge because we tend to think of human rights as somehow unrelated to our reality. Susan Roberta Katz and Andrea McEvoy Spero instead demonstrate that honoring and protecting human rights is everyone's business. Through the examples provided in Bringing Human Rights Education to US Classrooms, teachers and students can envision the role they can play in protecting human rights here in our country, as well as throughout the world." - Sonia Nieto, Professor Emerita of Education, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA
"The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child calls for education to achieve the development of every child 'to the fullest potential' and the 'preparation of the child for responsible life in a free society.' Bringing Human Rights Education to US Classrooms grounds that aspiration in the compelling, concrete experiences of teachers in twenty-first century schools, where human rights can provide a context for shared values, respect, and meaningful learning across classrooms divided by economics, race, culture, and religion." - Nancy Flowers, human rights consultant and co-founder of Human Rights Educators USA
