"...why not get into our race and culture in the classroom? Why not try to know each other a little better?"
Great story from a middle school math teacher that illustrates the connection between relationships & holding space for conversations about race.

In Jay Wamsted’s Grade 8 math class he goes right for the conversation on race & culture when the chance arises. “Why not try to know each other a little better?”

Some good Qs from this article for Ts teaching real American history:
"Can non-White voices, & specifically Black voices, be heard in my lesson?
Are my students empowered by my lesson?
Have I utilized the culture of my students to teach the lesson, so that they are empowered?"
Events like the #Jan6thInsurrection offer teachers an opportunity to bring in diverse voices and present a more comprehensive look at U.S. history. @RealRannMiller edutopia.org/article/teachin…
