107 Anti-Racism | Dr. Eddie Moore Jr.

In this episode, we had the awesome privilege of articulating
with Dr. Eddie Moore Jr.


We really needed his voice in response to the recent backlash to
the anti-racist curriculum many of our independent schools are
instituting in alignment with their mission statements and DEIB
commitments.


What we value about Dr. Moore's voice is that he gives the facts
straight and no chaser. However, his passion for Black students
and their excellence is palpable.


You will hear us discuss curriculum, teaching, and our student's
wellbeing through an anti-racist lens. We also discuss what
anti-racism is and is not.


We tried to keep in under 45 minutes, ya'll, but we needed the
next ten or so minutes to find joy!


This episode was recorded before the mass shooting in Los
Angeles. We dedicate this episode and stand in solidarity with
our AAPI brothers and sisters too!
