Hierarchical structures reassert themselves in academia unless deliberately deconstructed.

Evidence

It is striking to me how Freire maintained a focus on humanization throughout his career. To Freire (1970), education done right is the process of becoming—becoming more fully human. That process is an inherently dialogic one, which requires trust and give and take between equal parties. That kind of humanizing, dialogic relationship of equals is my goal for all of my academic relationships going forward, both with students and with other faculty. — James D.
