Planning to Change the World is a plan book designed to help you translate your vision of a just education into concrete classroom activities.    

Does your lesson plan book offer you:    

The story of a high school history teacher in San Francisco who coordinates with a local community organization to support his students in doing organizing work?

Information about dozens of important anniversaries in the struggle for social justice during the 2012-2013 school year such as the birth of Rosa Parks (100th anniversary), the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising (70th anniversary), George Wallace's infamous "Segregation Now" address (50th anniversary), Lawrence v. Texas, the landmark gay rights case (10th anniversary), the imprisonment of Nelson Mandela (50th anniversary), the first Labor Day celebration (130th anniversary), the Trail of Broken Treaties march on Washington to demand rights for Native Americans (50th anniversary), or the start of the Manzanar Riot, a protest in a Japanese internment camp (70th anniversary)?

References to online resources and lesson plans to teach about all those things?

Reproducible awards that recognize students for achievements such as "speaking up in the name of justice" or "using knowledge to make a difference"?

Quotes from inspirational leaders and activists such as Dolores Huerta, Howard Zinn, Audre Lorde, Frank Bowe, Eugene Debs, Yuri Kochiyama, LaDonna Harris, Naomi Wolf, Rigoberta Menchu, Wangari Maathai, James Baldwin, Elie Wiesel, Nina Simone and Dennis Banks?

A list of organizations where you can connect with other social justice teachers or find more teaching resources?

An opportunity to invest in three social justice education organizations (all proceeds from the plan book support the New York Collective of Radical Educators, the Education for Liberation Network and Rethinking Schools)?    

Shouldn't it?
