In episode 6 of Reach the Stars Podcast, hang out for an afternoon of education, connection and discussions of reparations with poet, educator and facilitator, Adam Falkner. We talk about the intersection of personal history, white fragility and the framework of the new normal that is possible in the world.
We also discuss the importance and influence of teachers who think outside the box, why you should always listen to your mother and why it is so great to cultivate multiple selves in your life.
