Open Admissions: The Poetics and Pedagogy of Toni Cade Bambara, June Jordan, Audre Lorde, and Adrienne Rich in the Era of Free College.
Danica Savonick traces the largely untold story of the teaching experience of Toni Cade Bambara, June Jordan, Audre Lorde, and Adrienne Rich at CUNY in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
This period, during which CUNY guaranteed tuition-free admission to every city high school graduate, was one of the most controversial in US educational history.
Analyzing their archival teaching materials-syllabi, lesson plans, and assignments-alongside their published work, Savonick reveals how these renowned writers were also transformative educators who developed creative methods of teaching their students to navigate and change the world.
