Season 3, Episode 3 | Habits of Everyday Liberation Dancing on Desks

Our third episode in our season of pleasure is a conversation between elementary educators and parents, Cesarina Santana Pierre and Tiffany Green. Cesarina and Tiffany share about the learning and unlearning they’ve engaged in as educators, parents, and people—moving from results-oriented classrooms to those that center rest and relationality. Their relationship with pleasure has been a journey of disrupting their relationship with productivity, a relationship that they inherited from their families but are wary of passing onto their own children and students. 

We invite you to share your reflections. How are you refusing productivity and collusion with capitalism and white supremacy? What is bringing you pleasure and rest this month? Send your thoughts to us at us@dancingondesks.org, leave an audio message, or slide into our DMs on IG @dancingondesks.
