“Lewis Raven Wallace has written an intimate text on how we really change, deep underneath it all. Through stories and study, Lewis guides us to shine light on our own beliefs and ideologies and those of our loved ones and communities. Give this book to everyone you love who is stuck in a heartbreaking worldview.”
—adrienne maree brown, author of Loving Corrections
“How and why we change our beliefs is an essential question for our times. Radical Unlearning offers thoughtful and generous portraits of people who have changed their minds about important social and political issues. Beautifully written, engaging, introspective, and also outward facing, this book is one I will continue to return to, to better understand my fellow humans and myself for years to come.”
—Mariame Kaba, author of We Do This ’Til We Free Us
“Taught in universities and activist spaces around the nation, The View from Somewhere established Lewis Raven Wallace as one of the preeminent media thinkers of our time. With Wallace’s signature style of inviting readers to ask questions along with them, Radical Learning allows readers to meditate upon how we might unlearn, in relationship with the people in our lives, the life lessons that separate us from one another. As it welcomes us to consider that what we unlearn is as important as what we learn, this urgently important book reads like a fiercely transgender, modern American companion to Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed.”
