In this four part podcast series, we'll engage in critical conversations about race and equity and education. We'll also explore how to integrate these topics within student learning and discuss what it means to be an interrupter. Through thoughtful, personal stories and self-reflection from authors Tonya B. Perry, Steve Zemelman and Katy Smith and their guests, who are educators, we will engage in this work and hope that you will gain a deeper understanding of racial inequities. We hope that you will build relationships necessary to address these inequities. And we hope that you will be energized to interrupt them.
