Abstract

The article focuses on the risk of aesthetic injustice in education, particularly in relation to imagination and its role in maintaining democracy. Topics include the rise in book bans in U.S. schools, the concept of aesthetic injustice as a form of oppression that limits imaginative capacities, and the interplay between aesthetic and epistemic injustice, which highlights combatting such injustices requires attention to both epistemic and aesthetic dimensions to ensure that individuals retain the ability to imagine alternative possibilities for themselves and society.
