Abstract
Jesús “Pato” Gómez was intrigued by love. He believed love was a social phenomenon that should be critically analyzed because of its importance in defining our relationships, which determine who we are as individuals. Pato’s scholarship was infused with ideas related to love, liberation and social justice. Throughout his life and work, the critical educator demonstrated a deep empathy for people he felt had no voice in society.
