Summary
Liberate Minds: A Call to Critical Consciousness
This seminal work unveils the powerful connection between oppression and the perceived passivity of the marginalized. It posits that economic, social, and political domination directly contributes to this passivity.
Challenging traditional education systems, the book critiques the “banking concept” where students are treated as passive recipients of information, a tool used by oppressors to maintain authority and silence.
