“…For example, Theoharis (2008) explored the motivations and leadership traits of school principals who self-identified as social justice advocates in seven urban schools in the Midwest and identified their common leadership traits: a sense of “arrogant humility,” passion about their work in schools, and a “tenacious” commitment to social justice. Theoharis’ case study and the others that I was able to identify in the literature (Brooks, Jean-Marie, Normore, & Hodgins, 2007; Cooper, 2009; Gerstl-Pepin & Aiken, 2009; Giles, Johnson, Brooks, & Jacobson, 2005; Goldfarb & Grinberg, 2002; Jansen, 2006; Jean-Marie, 2008; Kose, 2007; López, González, & Fierro, 2010; Merchant & Shoho, 2010; Riester, Pursch, & Skrla, 2002; Theoharis, 2007b; Wasonga, 2009) are summarized in the appendix.…”
