This Week: You’ve seen the crazy headlines - white folks up in arms over the “demonic” work of CRT in schools, a white mom suing her school district because her biracial child now sees himself as oppressed because of antiracist curriculum, and ongoing threats to school board members and their families. It’s rough out there for our schools! Particularly (but not exclusively) in the broad swaths of white America. A recent piece in the 74 Million profiles some of this madness in the state of MN and the potential costs of the mass exodus of school board leadership we’re seeing. And in CA, the Univ of California system appears to be backtracking on their commitment to require ethnic studies for admission.
Also, shout out to Education Evolving for hosting the first ever live edition of All of the Above at their annual Student Centered Learning for Equity Conference this past week. And, a big shout out to the youth performer who headlined the conference, Cuauhtli, check out his incredible work on Spotify here!
