Hey folks—Please find attached Nathaniel Moore's article about teaching African history in San Quentin prison, from the latest volume of the journal New Directions for Community Colleges, focused on higher education in prisons: (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cc.2015.2015.issue-170/issuetoc?campaign=woletoc), edited by Rob Scott of the Cornell Prison Education Program (robscott@cornell.edu).
This chapter describes the author's experience teaching ethnic studies inside a unique California prison, and calls for college-in-prison educators to engage culturally appropriate curricula to realize the full transformative potential of the prison classroom.
