From White Folks Who Teach in the Hood: Is This Conversation Against the Law Now?

Mar 5, 2025

2:30pm – 3:30pm CT

Most students in U.S. public schools are young people of color. Over 80% of their teachers are white. How do white educators understand and address these dynamics? And how must they evolve to create liberatory learning for their students and themselves? This podcast brings white educators into critical conversation with Dr. Christopher Emdin and sam seidel, co-editors of From White Folks Who Teach in the Hood: Reflections on Race, Culture, and Identity (Beacon, 2024).
