Abstract

Abstract: One of the key tenets of critical literacy that I operate from is that it works to disrupt normalized social practices. In keeping with this tenet, I have crafted this paper in such a way that it somewhat disrupts the normalized format of academic writing by creating an audit trail comprised of artifacts that represent significant moments in my life as a teacher researcher and academic researcher that demonstrate Allan Luke's influence and why, over 25 years after my first step in the dance of critical literacy, critical literacies continue to have relevance in my work with classroom teachers and young children.
