Books by Allison Butler

Illustrates the real struggles and socioeconomic challenges of young people and works to create proactive, productive change on their behalf. This volume presents a long-term qualitative study that follows 20 New York City public high school students as they make the transition into college and works.

Examines the struggles involved in integrating media education across the curriculum at a small urban school. This book argues against the neoliberal ethos that continuously harms urban youth and the rhetoric of new school reform that replicates, not heals, subjected social positions.
