Alinsky’s Reveille: A Community-Organizing Model for Neighborhood-Based Literacy Projects

Eli Goldblatt

Abstract

The author suggests that Saul Alinsky’s concept of community organization, a theory of action devised for neighborhoods rather than for higher education, might offer a new model of service-learning, and describes the Community Educators’ Collaborative at Temple University as one example of how such a model might work.
