In All In: Community Engaged Scholarship for Social Change, authors at various stages of their academic and professional careers, and in very different geographical contexts and community settings, provide unique examples of public scholarship for social justice. Readers will learn about activities promoting equity in a variety of situations and will be inspired to begin, to continue and to extend their own projects.

Each chapter sketches a story about how teachers might contribute humbly to generating radical evidence toward transformation. Each essay takes seriously the power relations of the world as it is; the vibrant possibilities of activist research crafted at the membrane of university and community; the knowledge nourished in struggle; the joy of solidarities and the heartbreak of structural violence.
