Kultivating Kapwa: Decolonizing Parenthood Episode 3.08
"The Little Things Become the Big Lessons: Honoring the Child to Better Ourselves as Parents"
In this episode, we are joined by Steph Cariaga. We discuss working through perfectionism, non-violent parenting, parenting and having to stop teaching in classroom during the pandemic, learning about anger, and more.
Steph Cariaga comes from a lineage of fierce Ilocanos by way of Pangasinan and Baguio City. She was born in Harbor City and currently resides in Long Beach -- all land belonging to the Tongva people. Steph has served the wider Los Angeles community for over fourteen years as a teacher, founding member of the People’s Education Movement, and now an assistant professor in teacher education at California State University, Dominguez Hills. Her teaching and research draw from radical feminist ways of knowing to examine the intersections between justice, wholeness, critical literacy, and critical teacher sustainability. She is inspired by her best teachers, daughter Laila and son Catalino.
