At the center of the work is Branham’s memoir as a young art teacher, which gives the reader a look into her classroom and shows them how education policy affects teachers. Branham weaves her narrative as an art teacher, discussions of advocacy and education policy, and a brief look at the history of art education together to create a work that provides readers with a compelling look into the state of art education.
