Dr. Mark Bracher (Kent State University) presents on "Radical Cognitive Politics: Literature, Schema Criticism, and Social Justice"

This presentation will identify faulty cognitive schemas that are responsible for unjust social policies, institutions, and systems and propose a new pedagogical and  critical strategy, based on research in cognitive science and certain features of protest novels, for advancing social justice by correcting these deficient cognitive schemas.
