Dr. Chris Dennis reflects on recent events—from the passing of Reverend Jesse Jackson to a trip to Montgomery and a talk by Bryan Stevenson—and highlights the power of proximity in understanding equity, justice, and the humanity of those most impacted.

The episode urges school leaders and educators to spend more time in classrooms (including commitments of 50% or 25% time), outlines plans to support those affected by mass incarceration, and previews a middle school course blending visual arts, photography, and social justice.
