Season 1 Episode 2: Ethnic Studies in Elementary Schools

  • Summary

  • Welcome back to another school year teaching and learning liberation! This second episode of the season features interviewers Kate Frazier and Dr. Ronnie Gordon, both Co-Assistant Directors at Whole Child, within the Tacoma Washington Public Schools.

    Kate and Ronnie had the opportunity to interview Dena Harris, who is currently teaching 5th Grade Ethnic Studies in North Thurston Public Schools (in Lacey, Washington). Prior to this, she served as a District Instructional Coach and developed and recorded over 150 ELA lessons for elementary teachers to use during remote learning instruction. All the lessons were aligned with the Social Justice Standards and highlighted diverse cultural perspectives. She is also the author of www.teachinghumanity.org, an online resource for curated children's books, educator resources, recent book reviews and recommendations, and a guide to choosing anti-racist books that address social justice.

    We encourage new listeners to our podcast to start with Season 1 Episode 0 to help orient you and provide context to our liberated Ethnic Studies movement.
