Paolo Friere
I liked the Pedagogy of the Oppressed. I had to read this book for a few other classes of mine and everytime I read it I find something new about it that I liked. He makes a valid arguement about the oppressed and the oppressors and makes it so everyone can relate to what he is saying. By reading this book, as teachers I feel it makes us all more aware of our classroom atmosphere and surroundings.

It is very true that we as teachers need to be aware of our classroom enviornment in the sense of ensuring learning. However I do not think the atmostphere should be taken into account when it comes to the type of teaching done. Oppressed area schools should be able to earn the same degree of education as other areas which are better off with money.
