Beskrivning

This book offers educational leaders another tool that, if they are courageous enough to use, transcends the tried-and-true processes and procedures that have typically grounded the educational leader’s performance. This book offers educational leaders the opportunity to use critical spirituality as a practice to wage war against the miseducation of so many of the nation’s children and youth. The book demands attention be paid to the societal issues that impact what happens in schools and argues that the intellectual work in the schoolhouse must prepare students to create strategies to combat these issues and challenges. The book can be used in advanced courses in educational leadership from multiple perspectives, including contemporary issues, social foundations, social justice, spirituality, and ethics

"As we continue to live through this Dark Night of the Soul in so many areas of our lives, it is a true gift to have a text like this to enter our space to speak life to us in the field of educational leadership and beyond. Dr. Dantley has gifted us a blessing, a balm in Gilead through his words and ideas in these six chapters. Afterall six is the number of soul integration."Judy A. Alston, Chair and Professor, Department of Educational Leadership, Miami University
