“Transformative Practice in Critical Media Literacy (Gennaro, Higdon, and Hoechsmann) is a timely and transformative guide to critical media literacy education in an era of fake news and media saturation. The collection dissects the complex world of contemporary media, exploring its profound impact on democracy, education, and society and shedding light on the hidden forces shaping our perceptions. Beyond analysis, the book serves as a rallying cry for change, emphasizing that critical media literacy is a pathway to individual and collective transformation. It underscores the vital role of education in bridging socialization, vocational training, and civic engagement, offering hope and practical solutions for the future of education. With diverse voices and perspectives, the book confronts the crisis in knowledge production within higher education, advocating for active, informed, and critical citizens who shape the narratives defining our world. It's an essential read for educators and activists concerned about the future of our society.” Douglas Kellner, Professor Emeritus, Graduate School of Education and Information Studies, UCLA “Packed with insight and praxis-oriented roadmaps that merge media literacy and critical pedagogy in higher education, Transformative Practice in Critical Media Literacy: Radical Democracy and Decolonized Pedagogy in Higher Education sets the table for a rich dialogue on how post-secondary education can play a responsive role in these post-digital, neoliberal and neocolonial times.” Dr. Paul R. Carr, Professor and Chair-holder. Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO) and UNESCO Chair in Democracy, Global Citizenship and Transformative Education “Transformative Practice in Critical Media Literacy: Radical Democracy and Decolonized Pedagogy in Higher Education offers crucial and diverse perspectives on the value of critical media literacy in higher education, particularly in our current moment. The editors have collected a powerful set of essays that explore a range of theoretical and practical models and interventions that situate critical media literacy education as a pivotal democratizing force that revitalizes civic life.” Alison Trope, Ph.D., Clinical Professor, Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, University of Southern California “Transformative Practice in Critical Media Literacy (Gennaro, Higdon, and Hoechsmann) is a timely and transformative guide to critical media literacy education in an era of fake news and media saturation.
