Book excerpt: Combating Hatred for the Soul of America: Watershed Moments for Transformational Educators raises important questions concerning the survival of our American democracy and the roles that educators can play in saving it. The January 6th Capitol riots brought to the surface deep-seated hatreds and cultural divisions that threaten our very soul as a nation.

It also describes specific actions taken by educators to combat such hatred. In doing this these educators actually became transformational leaders.
