With a direct, urgent, and passionate tone, Visionary Schools was, written as an educational manual to encourage school transformation. It challenges college-teacher education programs and teacher trainees to be daring and liberate students from race and class, colonial capitalism, militarism, and climate catastrophe. Solving these issues can transform a nation from colonial rule to governance by the African and Latino working class, the descendants of those enslaved, who produced the original capital for the American economy.
