I'm very interested in knowing WHO generated this list of books -- most 
of which are on the bibliography of my recently completed Ed.D. in 
Critical Pedagogy! Are you the one identifying these books are did it 
come from someone in the neo-conservative education "movement"?

also from the dissenting tradition
