Dare the Teachers Learn to Dare? An Inquiry Into the Civic Consequences of Teacher Neutrality

This inquiry examines teacher identity in relation to such terms as "neutrality," "objectivity," and "indoctrination." The congruent relationship between teacher identity and American national identity is highlighted to expose the powerful common-sense assumptions that accept neutrality and objectivity as a preferred mode. In addition, the American teacher's relationship to and fear of the term "indoctrination" is explored and challenged. The historical movement for social reconstruction and the current movement for social justice, along with the Cuban and Russian Revolutions, are explained in depth to highlight specific instances when teacher neutrality was questioned and in some cases abandoned to achieve political and moral ends.
