Teaching Mindfulness to Teens as a Path of Empowerment

Teaching Mindfulness to Teens as a Path of Empowerment is a teacher-level perspective on mindfulness instruction that has systems-level implications. Mindfulness instruction is framed as an ally to social justice and antiracist practice; and as a path of empowerment, warriorship, self-healing, and collective transformation. In stand-alone essays that are rich with personal stories and student reflections, Meghan LeBorious lays the groundwork for a thriving mindfulness classroom that is highly engaging, rigorous, student-centered, and antiracist. She inspires readers to dig deep, imagine what is possible, and collaborate in making the world we want to live in, one in which every student is seen, supported, valued, and inspired; and is armed with the tools they need to step into their full power and potential.

Cheap print moved across Europe in surprising ways, crossing unusual distances by unusual routes and by unusual means. Pedlars, news, and cheap print defy the conventional categories and models of distribution: we need to think about their extraordinary diversity, and about the means by which their unstable cultural images inflect distribution. Books were not dead things, and the examination of Italy, the Netherlands and Britain, three regions that contain instructive parallels and contrasts, reveals their unpredictable liveliness. This collection of essays, which emerges from transnational dialogues about pedlars and commerce and communication, examines the various means by which cheap print moved across Europe, and the cultural and material and economic premises of the European landscape of print. Contributors include: Alberto Milano; Jason Peacey; Jeroen Salman; Jo Thijssen; Joad Raymond; Joop Koopmans; Karen Bowen; Kate Peters; Melissa Calaresu; Roeland Harms; Rosa Salzberg; Sean Shesgreen.
