"...makes critical theory come alive through the words and deeds of bilingual students, community members, advocates and educators. In my opinion, it is the most significant work dealing with bilingual education and education reform to date....I was enthralled reading it....this is the kind of book that educators in the fields of bilingual, language minority, and multicultural education will want to read and use in their courses to prepare teachers who work in linguistically and ethnically diverse schools and communities. I commend Catherine Walsh for putting together such an extraordinary book."—Christian FaltisArizona State University"I appreciate the focus on...advocacy, community perspective, and grass-roots organizing. This book is unique in that it tells the stories of what actually is being done. It offers a view to the struggle that is not often seen, that of the progress that is being made."—Lila JacobsCalifornia State University, Sacramento"...an important and valuable book....it has much to offer and touches on topics which are becoming more critical in American education with the passing of each year."—Rene GalindoUniversity of Colorado, Denver
