In this episode, Dr. Almitra Berry sits down with Leslie Kelly, Program Coordinator with the Office of the Fresno County Superintendent of Schools in California, who supervises the Teachers of Color Alliance for Educational Empowerment (TCAEE): a Grow-Your-Own teaching pipeline aimed at increasing the number of African American teachers in Fresno County.

They discuss ways to empower education through equity and inclusivity. Discover how Leslie’s work has reduced suspension rates in African American students and how TCAEE is addressing the lack of African American teachers in the Fresno County area. Hear firsthand about the challenges facing teachers of color and how to create a more inclusive learning environment.
