    Be Revolutionary

    Today, we are joined by Dr. Jamaal Bowman, who was recently elected as the Democratic candidate for Congress for District 16 in New York and is a former Bronx principal. Join us for a conversation with Dr. Bowman where we discuss how his experience as a principal using restorative justice practices, building community by connecting with students and families, and advocating for better student outcomes where there is space for real world learning, led him to running for Congress and the creation of the New Deal for Education and Reconstruction Agenda. We also talk about how it is the time for people who are really about change to step up and be leaders in this moment of revolution.  Visit our Bronx ARTeam Website and connect with us on twitter @Bx_ARTeam! Today's hosts are Kris DeFilippis, Jermaine Dickerson, Adelia Gibson, and Kaitlyn Reilley.

In 2009, Bowman founded Cornerstone Academy for Social Action, a high performing Middle School in the Baychester section of the Bronx. During his tenure as a school building leader, Bowman was an advocate against standardized testing, citing their connection to the perpetuation of inequality and ultimately reinforcing a negative relationship with what should be called bad education. After 10 years as principal, Bowman pursued the democratic candidacy and beat out long standing rep for the 16th congressional district, Eliot Engel. Jamaal currently resides in Yonkers with his wife and 3 children. For 20 years Jamaal advocated for the students in the schools he served and will continue to be a champion of children and working families when elected to Congress.

    Today, we are joined by Dr. Louis Gomez, senior fellow at the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and professor of education and information studies at UCLA. Dr. Gomez addresses the topics of Networked Improvement Communities (NICs) and the mindset shift that is necessary in order to promote equity in education.
