Employing the theoretical framework of\u00a0nation language, the findings from this study illustrate how seven African American male teachers who worked with African American male students within a local educational context drew from multiple and sometimes contested conceptions of \u2018social justice\u2019. The findings from this study demonstrate that while the teachers held a \u2018shared concern\u2019 to radically alter the educational and social conditions of African\u00a0American males, they each employed different and competing discourses of \u2018social justice\u2019.
