Critical Scholarship in Early Education and Care: Writing and Speaking for/with Others

Authors

Abstract

This essay raises questions regarding the primary aims of, and the ethical responsibilities involved in, writing and speaking publicly as individuals, but especially on behalf of a group such as RECE, and to or for unknown and unknowable others and audiences. Drawing from leadership experiences across the over 30 years of RECE, I unpack examples of recent public statements made, and focus on the power of and the ethical responsibilities of critical scholarship and activism.
