On this episode from @ewbpod, Mahlon (@SuperMahrio) and Jo (@Jo_Sa_Pheen) geek out on all this history teaching (while Black).
We discuss our initial reactions to meeting each other as Black educators in similar positions of leadership, the navigation of being 'the face' of history education for other professionals and parents alike and the political nature of constructing narratives of the past.
Reflections on past experiences are always subject to interpretation and revision. Being able to look back and pull out the lessons learned from them are great reminders of overarching purpose and useful when deciding on which battles to fight and when.
