Collaboration with Leadership Eastside

"With this volume of extremely accessible analysis, written in voices both scholarly and poetic at the same time, Leticia Nieto breaks down complex subject matter in a way that readers of all ages and levels of expertise can understand. This work is a critical contribution to the literature on oppression, resistance and liberation!"
- Tim Wise, Author of White Like Me: Reflections on Race from a Privileged Son and Colorblind: The Rise of Post-Racial Politics and the Retreat from Racial Equity

"Dr. Nieto teaches powerful frameworks for thinking about inclusion, diversity, cross-difference competence, and anti-oppression work as justice imperatives."
- Ada Shen-Jaffe, Distinguished Public Interest Practitioner in Residence, Seattle University School of Law and former statewide Director, Columbia Legal Services

"This book is indispensable for anyone striving to combine the practical and the passionate realms in social justice education work. Leticia Nieto offers fresh insights into the meaning of “liberatory relationship” as she teaches us new skills to transform spaces socially. People seriously engaged in social change will find an experienced guide, very good company, and a variety of useful performance strategies to teach social justice. Leticia Nieto’s disquieting and gentle approach is energizing, radical, and inviting."
- Guillermo Gómez-Peña, Performance artist, activist, and author of Ethno-Techno and The New World Border

"Nieto’s work invokes brilliance, compassion, courage, and caring. It promises possibilities for shared justice, authentic community building, and democracy. The cross-cultural competence implications are endless and encouraging."
