"A History of Education for the Many offers a window into the history of US education
that challenges long held beliefs that the historical development of education reflects
either the flourishing of democracy, or a ruling class project designed to reproduce
structural inequalities. While it has more in common with texts that celebrate the
agency of poor and oppressed people's efforts at challenging unjust educational policies,
the book is unique in that it looks to the global balances of forces as the primary
factor shaping the history of US education. In a country notorious for educating its
people with an inability to see beyond its own borders A History of Education for
the Many offers a timely corrective. Drawing on Marx's dialectic combined with W.E.B.
Du Bois' challenge to 19th-century historians that dismissed the role of the enslaved
in ending slavery and bringing forth all progressive reforms in the South, Curry Malott
is thus able to demonstrate how the mighty agency of the worlds' poor and oppressed
have forced the hand of US imperialists in not only foreign policy, but in domestic
education policy. As US imperialism declines in the 21st century, Malott points optimistically
and realistically toward a history of education for the many"
