"The press to locate modifiable out-of-school factors that influence the education of underserved students continues to grow. This book provides an insightful, intellectual guide that describes the scholarship of major thought leaders and researchers working in this problem space." —William F. Tate, Edward Mallinckrodt Distinguished University Professor, Arts & Sciences, Washington University in St. Louis, USA "DeMatthews’ masterful critique of the principalship in historical perspective weaves between the macro and micro to give much-needed attention to the way that the profession, in Freire’s words, is less about liberation than it is about domesticating subjectivities. Community Engaged Leadership for Social Justice cogently maintains that we cannot have principals that either lack awareness or fail to be critically reflective of the inequalities faced by the children and communities that they serve. Kudos to a job well done!"—Angela Valenzuela, Professor, Educational Leadership and Policy, University of Texas at Austin, USA
