Advancing Racial Literacy in Teacher Education

Comments

In this episode
Today’s students use their digital expertise and the power of their voice to respond to issues of inequity in society. Therefore, it is essential that teacher educators develop their own racial literacy skills — and those of their pre-service and classroom teachers — in order to support students' digital activism. Authors and Teachers College, Columbia University faculty Detra Price-Dennis and Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz join us for a look at how educators can cultivate these skills, and how to promote equity in digital spaces.

​Educators can help themselves and their students by learning how to hear someone else's experience, without feeling that their own is being invalidated.

​As educators, we want to make it a point to really see our students, to pull out those things that they’re interested in and create spaces for conversation; even with the topics they’re struggling with and say, “well, how can I support you?”
