Abstract
Students of education are often required to take some course or another that deals with social justice. These courses deal with theorists, teachers, and leaders who “think beyond current behavioural and conceptual boundaries…to change schools in ways and in manners that are consistent with an equitable, inclusive vision” (Brown, 2004, p. 88).
