New Book Publication: Roles of Resistance

Our Labour Studies lecturer, John-Henry Harter, recently co-published a new book titled "Roles of Resistance: Game Plans for Teachers and Troublemakers", which outlines revolutionary lesson plans on how to fight the power with people power.

The thirteen lesson plans in this book created by John-Henry Harter and Mark Leier can be used independently or combined to create a semester-long course. Sections include units on teaching political economy, labour history, and social activism based on democratic, experiential teaching, including role-plays, simulations, and games. The tried and tested classroom activities in this teacher’s guide—successfully applied in high schools, universities, and union classrooms—are bound to create a vibrant learning experience, enriching debates, and providing the main tool we need to change the world: collective action.
