Abstract	In this article I discuss how Jacques Rancière's thought invites us to re-conceptualize the education-emancipation nexus. The primary goal of traditional approaches to emancipatory and anti-oppressive education has been to empower the oppressed so that the latter can (re)gain their voice and transform their situations. Building on Rancière's ideas, I argue that the processes of "empowering" the oppressed imply that one has the power to "empower" the other, and thus start with an assumption of inequality. I conclude the article with a call for a pedagogy of ignorance. Grounded in Rancière's thought, this pedagogy is ignorant of any division and hierarchy of intelligence. (As Provided).
