Why did they do that? 25:10 Do value statements, like the one IATEFL produced, carry any weight? 26:31 What do you think IATEFL should be doing to address racial discrimination as an organisation, both internally, and within ELT more broadly? 29:14 What metaphorical statues should fall within IATEFL? 31:20 What advice do you have for teachers who want to discuss race and racism in their schools?
