“Students quickly receive the message that they can only be smart when they are not who they are. This, in many ways, is classroom colonialism; and it can only be addressed through a very different approach to teaching and learning.” Christopher Emdin

In the summer of 2018, Bria Wright, 5th grade teacher at Hortons Creek Elementary, and I led a book club focused on the Christopher Emdin's book, For White Folks Who Teach in the Hood. We loved learning with educators across Wake County and made lasting connections with people who are continuing to push our learning forward. Below are the Agendas used for each meeting.
