Equating personalization and radical pedagogy leads to the conflation of individual with group identity and requires ontological policing to assess the authenticity of claims

The construction of a particular indigenous identity category ignores the multiplicities of identity – focus on indigenous struggles alone negates anti-capitalist efforts that have existed for hundreds of years over multiple cultures – their criticism misidentifies the causes of domination and maintains a false abstraction that continues the process of capital

Trapping the Radical (Co-option Turn)

 (     ). RESITANCE IS CO-OPTED.

A) We need to ask some deeper questions about their strategy.  They paint themselves as radical resistance, but it’s still empty discourse and the same type of image-events that the media will use.  When they make their arguments part of this public debate—to be judged and voted for or against—they becomes the compromised piece-meal reformers they are criticizing.  

B) Vote their strategy down for being a mask on the same old slogans hiding behind persuasion.  This is the most honest evidence in the debate and should be considered first.

Cooks and Warren, Profs. Communication

Schools and schooling, whether viewed as a right, a privilege, or compulsory, are sites for training bodies to behave in socially sanctioned ways. As such, they are primary spaces for the production of discourses and performances of citizenship, sociability, and competency, as well as evaluatory agencies for (dis)conforming bodies. Although schooling and educating are often seen as interchangeable, we distinguish schooling in this Special Issue by its occurrence in institutional and institutionally sanctioned spaces and its alignment with the interests of the dominant groups in any society. These sanctioned spaces are themselves complicated in the United States by the rise in home schooling and by standardization (e.g., No Child Left Behind) in the midst of differing expectations for educational attainment (and performances thereof) across lines of social group, family, community, and nationality. We note, too, that schooling occurs in the discursive positioning of our performances as we engage you, who audience them.
