- Description
Bucking Conservatism is a collection of thought-provoking pieces about various individuals who effected change in areas ranging from Indigenous rights to LGBTQIA+ rights to environmental action. Each chapter is heavily researched with many resources listed for further engagement, and overall the writing style draws readers in and inspires shaking up the status quo. Given the diversity represented in this collection, most learners should be able to find an activist of interest. This book provides excellent examples of how to use news articles in writing about history. The stand-alone chapters could easily support lessons in social studies or English classes.
