Love

Great!!!!!! :) ,

A great resource for educators and teachers!

This podcast brings an authentic and insightful perspective to discussions about science and math. When people say “real world” they are usually just applying the same dominant constructs. This podcast actually pushes you to think outside colonized ideas about science through conversations with creative and interesting people. I also love how they center Blackness and Black women, and people of color. Lastly - you’ll get great music recommendations!

Informative!

Learned so much just from the first couple episodes. Can’t wait to see what Latoya and Atasi come up with next. The music segment is one of my favorite parts !
