From Disrupting to Holding Spaces for Critical Interruptions: Our Final Issue

This issue of the Journal of Literacy Research (JLR) brings our editorship to a close. In our first editorial statement, we invoked Horton and Freire’s (1990) notion of “making the road by walking” in framing the path for our work as editors as we were not sure how the field would frame our editorship nor how our editorship would frame the field. We trusted the process of review that included our editorial review board and ad hoc reviewers to help us “make the road” that would define our contribution. We also knew that the authors who published in JLR would guide us toward what it means to disrupt; we thank them for entrusting their work with us.
