Educating For Insurgency: The Roles of Young People in Schools of Poverty

Jay Gillen

All children have a right to a decent education. This belief is paramount to the Algebra Project - an education organisation founded by celebrated activist Bob Moses aimed at delivering maths literacy to youth of colour - whose aims and practices are outlined in this book. Based on his work with this organisation, author Jay Gillen outlines the tools needed to build social, cognitive and political power in educational settings. He outlines a youth-based educational theory and discusses racial equality issues posed by the de facto segregation of many UK schools.
