    In this episode of A Black Educators Truth, I am fortunate to sit down with Kimberly Lane Clark from Google Education.

In addition, we discuss different ways culturally revelant pedagogy impacts our students and the communities that we serve.

    We Grew Up with Music! and Black Feminism the Music Industry with Dr. Jasmine Hines - S3: EP 4

    We Grew Up with Music! and Black Feminism the Music Industry with Dr. Jasmine Hines - S3: EP 4

    In this episode of A Black Educator's Truth, our guest is Dr. Jasmine Hines. She is an adjunct music professor at Kent State University. We dive into a discussion on her journey to become a music educator at the collegiate level, critical race theory, how CRT has impacted the field of education, culturally relevant music education and black feminism in the music world. It is important to understand that music is for everyone and how every music teacher teaches music will be different. Further into the episode Dr. Hines and I dive into a conversation about the barriers and educational gaps that teachers of color face. Retention rates of educators of colors in the music field are very important due to the cultural perspective that we bring into the classroom. We grew up with music, dancing, singing in church, and dancing at different social gathering. We must educate the next generation with the knowledge of the power of music.

    Reflection: What is your why? - S3: EP 3

    Reflection: What is your why? - S3: EP 3

    In this episode, I take time to reflect from the interview I had with Dr. Scott. Dr. Scott mentions, the "Core of Teaching." When he mention this in the interview, I had to think about what is my "Core of Teaching?" What is your "Core of Teaching?" When we dive into this core, support and growth must happen to create effective educators in the classroom.

    The Core of Teaching with Dr. Irvin Scott - S3: EP2

    The Core of Teaching with Dr. Irvin Scott - S3: EP2

    "Why do we teach?" - a question, I myself as an educator have asked myself. Before we dive into why, we must dissect the core of teaching. When we understand the core of teaching, we understand, why we teach? In this episode, Dr. Scott, a professor from Harvard University, dives into his perspective of the core of teaching. He goes into detail, the importance of why we need to remember the core, as well as providing support to teachers on the frontlines. Furthermore, Dr. Scott, shares a new perspective of teaching by incorporating his fellowship L.I.F.E., into schools and the importance that schools incorporate into the community that they are based in.
