  • Summary

  • Podcast co-hosts and co-editors of the book ⁠From White Folks Who Teach in the Hood⁠, Dr. Christopher Emdin and sam seidel speak with Adam Seidel. Adam is a third-generation educator, a parent (of two humans and many plants), and a partner who lives with his family in his childhood home and roots for the Celtics. He is also the author of an essay in From White Folks Who Teach in the Hood. In the essay, titled “Much Like All of the Last,” Adam takes us into a moment in his career as a school leader when he hears the dashcam recording of Sandra Bland’s traffic stop and recognizes himself in the voice of the state trooper screaming at her. In this podcast episode, Adam talks with Chris and sam about his inspiration for writing the piece, his reflections on it now, and whether or not the piece is hopeful.
