“Macrine should be praised for her effort to assemble this collection of papers representing voices in critical pedagogy. … With the more recent taming of critical pedagogy, Critical Pedagogy in Uncertain Times: Hope and Possibilities provides a reference point for critical scholar-activists, especially those new to the field, to gain a comprehensive understanding of how critical pedagogy helps to situate education within the larger political–economic and social context.” (Zane C.
