Dr. Darder holds the Leavey Presidential Endowed Chair in Ethics and Moral Leadership in the School of Education at Loyola Marymount University. She also is Professor Emerita of Educational Policy, Organization, and Leadership at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Education[link]

Antonia Darder attended Pasadena City College where she earned a degree in nursing. She later attended Cal State Los Angeles for her bachelor's in Rehabilitation Counseling and received a master's degree from Pacific Oaks College in Human Development. In 1989, she received her doctorate in Education from Claremont Graduate University. ^[1]

Early life[link]

At age three, her mother brought Darder to the mainland during the Operation Bootstrap post-war migration when more than 500,000 Puerto Ricans emigrated ^[2] to the United States between 1949-1959. ^[3]

Raised in poverty in East Los Angeles, she was a young mother with three children, when she began her studies at Pasadena City College in 1972.^[4] While at PCC, Darder began exploring the realm of cultural differences in U.S. society, as a bilingual peer counselor. Upon completing nursing school, she worked as a pediatric nurse in a hospital and then for the Head Start Program. Her work included developing programs for parents, and providing health education for children and their families. She attended California State University Los Angeles and then Pacific Oaks College, where she earned a master’s degree in Human Development with a specialization in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling.

While earning her degree, Darder worked in a variety of settings as a therapist and clinical supervisor for child abuse and domestic violence programs. During this time, she was active working with the Chicano/Latino movement, focusing on issues of mental health and education in Spanish speaking communities.^[5]

From 1982 - 1986, Darder began teaching college seminars that focused on sociopolitical issues and questions of culture, human development, and parenting. In 1986, she joined the faculty at Pacific Oaks where she developed a graduate program in Bicultural Development that was discussed in her first book, Culture and Power in the Classroom. ^[6] In the late 80's and early 90’s, Darder studied and worked with renowned Brazilian educator, Paulo Freire, whose ideas profoundly influenced the direction of her life's work.^[7] Her book Reinventing Paulo Freire: A Pedagogy of Love ^[8] focused on Freire’s important contributions to education, particularly from the standpoint of oppressed communities. ^{[9] [10]}

From 1993-1996, as a recipient of a Kellogg Foundation fellowship and participant in the Kellogg International Leadership Program,^[11] her research took her to Peru where she studied the education and culture of indigenous children in the Andes. ^{[12] [13]}

Recent work[link]

Dr. Darder has taught at California Polytechnic University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and was recognized as a Distinguished Professor at New Mexico State University, Las Cruces. In 2005, working with graduate students and community members, she established the Liberacion! Radio Collective^[14] a public affairs radio program, on WEFT 90.1 Champaign that examines politics, art, and struggle through the nexus of local/global connections.^[15]

In 2011, Dr. Darder was recognized as Professor Emerita at the University of Illinois, where she taught in the Department of Educational Policy Studies from 2003-2011.^[16] Today she serves as Presidential Endowed Chair in Ethics and Moral Leadership in the School of Education at Loyola Marymount University.^[17]

Dr. Darder's work focuses on comparative studies of racism, political economy, education, and society. Her teaching and research examine issues of inequalities and the politics of social exclusions, as these relate to racism, class inequalities, and gendered relations of power. Her work also explores popular culture and the politics of public pedagogy with respect to critical democratic participation. Her most recent research examines the pervasiveness of oppression within the university, as well as issues directly tied to the body, pedagogy, and inequality.

Honors and awards[link]

In addition to her recognition as a distinguished professor, Dr. Darder has received several awards and honors for her community and professional work. Along with a national Kellogg Foundation Fellowship, she has also received the Social Justice in Education Award from the University of New Mexico, an Outstanding Book of the Year honor from the American Educational Research Association, and recognition for Outstanding Service to the Latino Community from El Centro de Acción Social, among others. ^[18]

Artistic Endeavors[link]

Poet[link]

In 1983, Darder's first book of poetry, Each Day I Feel More Free was published.^[20] For the next 6 years, she frequently presented her poetry at different cultural events. Over the years, her poetry has been published in a variety of venues, including the Boston Journal of Education. Although somewhat unorthodox, she often includes poetry in her academic speeches and texts. ^[21] In her last book, A Dissident Voice: Essays on Culture, Pedagogy, and Power, each of the seven sections in the book begins with one of her poems.^[22]

Visual Artist[link]

In 1984, Darder traveled to visit a friend in the Coyoacán neighborhood of Mexico City and there discovered the museum La Casa Azul (the Blue House) which was the residence of renown painters Frieda Kahlo and Diego Rivera. During her visit, Darder experienced such inspiration from her daily afternoon sojourns to the Blue House, that she began painting immediately after returning home from Mexico City. Since then, she has exhibited her work in a variety of venues including Self-Help Graphics^[23] and Plaza De La Raza^[24] in Los Angeles and continues to create new works.^[25]

Songwriter[link]

Darder first performed and wrote songs in the mid-1980s for Canto Jibaro, a Los Angeles community musical ensemble of Chicano and Puerto Rican activists, whose music carried a revolutionary message. Later she began learning to play the guitar and with Guido Nuñez del Prado,^[26] a Peruvian folk musician, with whom she co-edited an anthology of articles on music of the Andes, Seminario de Musica de la Region.^[27] Writing and performing in English and Spanish, Darder has penned over 20 folksongs of love, struggle, and freedom.^[28]

Carlos Alberto Torres (born July 17, 1944, Rio de Janeiro) is a former Brazilian footballer, one of the most highly regarded defenders of all time. He captained Brazil to victory in the 1970 World Cup and is a member of the World Team of the 20th Century, as well as the U.S. National Soccer Hall of Fame.

Carlos Alberto was named by Pelé as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers in March 2004.

Personal life[link]

Carlos Alberto was born in Rio de Janeiro. His son is fellow player Carlos Alexandre Torres.

Club career[link]

Carlos Alberto joined Fluminense at the age of 19. He made a name for himself in his first season, not only because of his great tackling and reading of the game, but also for his outstanding ball control, dribbling and playmaking abilities, which were quite rare at the time for a defender. In 1966, he moved to Santos, where he became Pelé's teammate. In 1974, he returned to Fluminense and helped the team capture two consecutive Campeonato Carioca championships. In 1977, he moved to Fluminense's arch-rivals Flamengo.

NASL[link]

In 1977, despite a great career in Brazil, Carlos Alberto Torres decided to move to the New York Cosmos. He arrived on the day of the New York City blackout where he was reunited with his friend and partner Pelé and helped the Cosmos capture two consecutive NASL titles in 1977 and 1978. After spending one year with the California Surf, he returned to the Cosmos in 1982 where he won his third NASL title. He played his farewell game on September 28, 1982 in an exhibition match between the Cosmos and his former club Flamengo. In 119 regular season games and 26 playoff games, Carlos scored a total of 8 goals and was an NASL All-Star five times.

National career[link]

Carlos Alberto Torres is considered a legend among football insiders for his massive contributions to Brazil as an attacking right-back. From 1964 to 1977, Torres was capped 53 times and scored 8 goals. He was included in the 44 man training squad for the 1966 FIFA World Cup but did not make the final 22, a decision which hugely disappointed him and surprised most commentators at that time. As it turned out, Brazil performed pitifully in England, and when Joao Saldanha was tasked with restoring pride and passion to the selecao, he recognised the natural flair for leadership that Carlos Alberto was consistently demonstrating at Santos, and made him national captain. Thus, Carlos Alberto will always be remembered holding aloft the Jules Rimet trophy after the greatest team of the modern era secured the cup for good after an impressive victory over Italy in the final of the 1970 FIFA World Cup in Mexico. This legendary squad also included Clodoaldo, Gérson, Jairzinho, Roberto Rivelino, Tostão and Pelé. Carlos Alberto's goal against Italy^[2] in the 1970 FIFA World Cup Final is considered one of the greatest goals ever scored in the history of the tournament. Given the influence he had demonstrated throughout the 1970 tournament, it is tragic that it would prove to be the only time he would play at that level. He was unable to participate in the 1974 World Cup due to a persistant knee injury. When he eventually regained match fitness, his penchant for galloping down the flanks had been compromised. However, his ability to read the game compensated for his loss of pace and when he moved to centre back he found the form to warrant a recall to the national team. In 1977 he was selected by Claudio Coutinho to captain the national team for the first three qualifiers for the 1978 FIFA World Cup. He acquitted himself well despite these being the first competitive internationals Carlos Alberto had played for almost 7 years. He was approaching 33 years of age, he had nothing else to prove, and thus chose that moment to retire from the Brazil National Team, immediately prior joining New York Cosmos in the NASL. Today he is considered one of the finest Brazilian footballers of all time, with the likes of Pelé, Zico, Ronaldo, Garrincha, Romário and fellow defenders Roberto Carlos and Nilton Santos.

Coaching career[link]

His career as a football manager started in 1983, when he managed Flamengo. He also managed several other clubs, like Corinthians in 1985 and 1986; Náutico in 1986, 1987 and 1988; Once Caldas on 1989, 1990; Monterrey in 1991, 1992; Club Tijuana in 1992; Fluminense in 1994 and 1995; Botafogo in 1993, 1994, 1997, 1998, 2002 and 2003; Querétaro FC in 1999; Unión Magdalena in 2000, 2001; and Paysandu in 2005.

He was also an assistant manager for national teams such as the Nigeria national football team and the Oman national football team. On 14 February 2004 he was appointed manager of the Azerbaijan national football team. He resigned on 4 June 2005 after losing a match against Poland, during which he assaulted the technical referee and ran on the pitch suggesting the referee was bribed.
