“I come from a long lineage of liberatory pedagogists and have over 20 years of experience in the fields of education and the healing arts.
As author of “Montessori By Any Means Necessary,” I believe the most authentic aspects of Montessori are liberatory.” -Koren Clark

"The most relevant and authentic aspects of the Montessori pedagogy are those that can be used today as tools for our liberation.
My mentor Asa Hilliard, Black psychologist and Montessorian writes, “Montessori is a metaphor for humanity because it is a pedagogy that helps humans receive what they naturally need,” in his work entitled Maintaining the Montessori Metaphor: What every child wants and needs (The NAMTA Journal Vol. 21. No 2 Spring 1996, Asa Hilliard).
The aspects of the Montessori philosophy that provide us with the tools for liberation we need are the defining features of an authentic Montessori practice."
Come learn more about how Koren thinks about liberatory zones and mobilizing a movement towards liberation that honors and preserves the humanity in us all. We can do this through Montessori if we keep it real!
