About this listen
First published in Portuguese in 1968, Pedagogy of the Oppressed was translated and published in English in 1970. Paulo Freire's work has helped to empower countless people throughout the world and has taken on special urgency in the United States and Western Europe, where the creation of a permanent underclass among the underprivileged and minorities in cities and urban centers is ongoing.
This 50th anniversary edition includes an updated introduction by Donaldo Macedo, a new afterword by Ira Shor, and interviews with Marina Aparicio Barberán, Noam Chomsky, Ramon Flecha, Gustavo Fischman, Ronald David Glass, Valerie Kinloch, Peter Mayo, Peter McLaren, and Margo Okazawa-Rey to inspire a new generation of educators, students, and general audiences for years to come.

A journey!
On a serious note, this book increased my IQ somewhat! The narration was excellent. A true leader of spiritual enlightenment 👍 The way Paulo Frere looked at Cartesian Dualisms is astonishing to say the least.

If you didn’t know before, now you know
This book was recommended to me by my art therapist. I was finding expressing myself nigh on impossible. This book helped me put vocabulary to the oppressive regime I have experienced throughout my life as a black woman born in the 70’s. It has helped me recognise my inner oppressor and my inner power. It has helped me with ‘scaffolding’ my independent learning and how I want my life to be in the future. It has helped me with resetting boundaries which have been overridden before I was born. This book has helped me to get my power back.

Great Book, Awful Narration
I found the narration of this book extremely off-putting, to the point where I couldn't really concentrate on the content. Dennis Kleinman's voice in this narration is creepy to say the least. If you are the kind of listener who likes clear enunciation then I recommend you steer clear of this recording. On the other hand, the book is a classic in humanist critique. It is a must read for anyone who is interetsted in progressive educational theory.

Paulo Freire, who?
I can understand why I've never heard of Paulo, I don't speak Portuguese. But, after listening to this a couple of times, it's like I've known him all my life. This is an absolute must read for anyone interested in learning and the political implications of an educated society. I think I'll listen to it again.

A must read for educators in our times
this classic text communicates ideas that are still considered relatively radical and revolutionary in western higher education (i.e. university, aka college in the USA), particularly when one compares the systems of higher education and the systems of access to higher education.

Absolutely pivotal and essential reading
This timeless work and exploration of dialogical education is key to our liberation as a people and must be read by anyone who claims to desire freedom for themselves and their fellow people in this capitalist system of oppression through which we are dominated and enslaved on both a material and ideological basis.
Whether or not you are an educator; whether or not you consider yourself an advocate of revolutionary thought and praxis, this book will transform you and enlighten you. An instant favourite, and an honest guide toward understanding the word and the world and our destiny as human beings seeking humanity, to change it.

A revelation
Paulo Freire was and is an intellectual for all ages, not of individual people, but of human history. Freire's conceptual grasp of critical pedagogy, one which is explained in as clear a prose as one could ask, is profound and powerful; as one listens to his ideas, one is himself reaching a new level of conscientisation, one which allows them to be more critical of the world and their place within it. This is an absolute must read, for all of human kind.
