    Asian Americans have long occupied a precarious position in American society; they are just as likely to be valorized as the so-called "model minority" as they are ostracized and seen as perpetual foreigners. During this episode, we take a deep dive into how we got here, and provide perspectives on ways teachers need to see, understand, and interrupt anti-asian stereotypes. We'll hear from local Asian American students, parents, and educators at Hortons Creek Elementary in NC to get their perspective on how schools can and should become more culturally and community responsive in order to better serve all students and families who are part of our community.

    Guests include:
    Dr. Sandy Chambers - Principal at Hortons Creek Elementary
    Supriya Vasudevan - 3rd Grade Teacher at Hortons Creek Elementary
    Suruchika Bhatia - Lead IA at Hortons Creek Elementary
    Nicki Lee - Counselor at Hortons Creek Elementary
    Aravand - High School Student
    Navam - Middle School Student
    Dr. Nicholas Hartlep - Chair of the Department of Education Studies at Berea College, creator of the Model Minority Stereotype Project
    Dr. Chris Suh - Assistant Professor of History at Emory University
    Soukprida Phetmisy - National Senior Managing Director, Asian American & Pacific Islander Community Alliances at Teach for America
    Jimmy Patel-Nguyen - Communications Director, North Carolina Asian Americans Together (NCAAT)
