On this episode from @ewbpod, Mahlon (@SuperMahrio) and Karl (@actionheroteacher) have a wide ranging conversation about education.
We talk Karl's reflections that led him to write his book Action Hero Teacher - the angle of which was intentionally written for teachers, 'in a friendly voice that would give them practical, no BS help that would make the difference in their teaching career'.Click here to check out more of about Karl's reflection of that book two years on.
We engage in a conversation about the history and utility of education; the unhelpful flattening of racial groups termed as 'BAME' and 'white'; how Black people are disproportionately on guard in the work place, and; the difference in how anti-Black racism plays out for men vs women. This is rounded off by analysis of how the ground swell movement from many after the deaths of, in particular, George Floyd in 2020 can also be charted in the UK, as well as the predictable ebb and flow of interest, even despite the refrains that, 'this time will be different'.
Get into this really casual, yet very analytical chat with two Black men in education who have a lot to say about both.
