This book asks the question:
The answer is as simple as it is radical. We need a clear vision to awaken humanity in our students:
"Our world is full of knowledgeable people but they cannot provide all the answers to the challenges our planet faces. We need people with integrity, honesty, compassion and above all humanity."
The book gives an example of ‘shared humanity’ in action in the classroom with a student’s-eye view of how it worked in practice.
It also challenges the current ideas behind teaching “History not Herstory, still less our human story” and provides an alternative where all the voices of humanity can be heard.
