He's an influential thinker in the field of 'critical pedagogy', has written numerous papers decrying the evils of 'whiteness', and as Andrew Jones at the Bruin Alumni Association writes, UCLA professor Peter McLaren has an interesting web site:
Entering the domain of Peter McLaren (or at least his webpage) is a full sensory experience. The eye is dazzled by a revolving red Communist star and noble Che Guevara iconography. The ears are delighted by the solemn strains of The Internationale, the anthem of Marxist socialism ...
