Abstract

There are clear parallels between Kumashiro’s writing and the work of South African scholars on how anti-oppressive education has been conceptualized. In this chapter, I bring together Kumashiro’s anti-oppressive framework and the South African scholarship on gender and sexuality diversity and schooling, to trouble how the teaching and learning of non-heterosexualities happen. Kumashiro makes a whole lot of sense, and so I use his work while remaining critical, and, similarly, use the various South African writings that add a whole lot of understanding and context.
