I am presently in the process of finding citations, copies, and publishing information in order to update this list. From what I have been able to establish over that time I wrote reviews and articles for The Nation, articles, reviews and interviews in Phi Delta Kappan, Z Magazine, Multicultural Education (winner of the 1994 Feature Article award of EdPress), Black Issues in Higher Education, Our Schools / Our Selves, Philadelphia Inquirer, Ladies HomeJournal, Boston University Journal of Education, Mother Jones, Culturefront, plus a series of articles (6) on good public schools for Mothering Magazine. In addition to the works cited above, I wrote nine columns a year on education for Teacher Magazine from 1968 until 1982, for a total of 125 columns. From 2000 to the present I have written the Good Stuff column for Rethinking Schools for a total of 27 columns. |
