Black teachers matter to society, to schools, and to all students, but they face unique challenges that often drive them out of the profession. Join Kevin and Reed as they interview three Black educators and explore Research for Action’s 2023 report, Small But Mighty: Lessons from Black Teachers’ Experiences in Allegheny County. Small But Mighty investigates why there are so few Black teachers and presents important steps for us to solve this critical issue in education. This podcast feature is produced and co-written in collaboration with Mignon Combs and Quynh Van of Diseducation.
How do we fix the inequities in the teaching profession? Black teachers need a seat at the table. Join hosts and teacher-researchers Andrea Barnes and Vicki Green as they examine Research for Action’s groundbreaking study by and about Black teachers.
Black at the Whiteboard offers a window into the reality of experiencing the education workplace as a Black person: the good, the bad, and the ugly. The issues facing Black teachers impact all students, and Research for Action proposes important solutions from the mouths of Black educators.
Black at the Whiteboard is a limited series produced and co-written in collaboration with Mignon Combs and Quynh Van of Diseducation.
Black teachers are change agents. Black teachers humanize students. And Black teachers teach the truth.
