Disrupting a Destructive Cycle, Part 1

At the ILA 2017 Conference, ILA convened a group of panelists for a candid discussion centered on difficult conversation topics like racism, implicit bias, and equity in education. Through a partnership with Heinemann Publications, this panel was recorded for the benefit of educators who were not in attendance.
Part 1 of this panel features an introduction by Cornelius Minor, a lead staff developer at the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project, who describes how he came to host an impromptu session at ILA 2016 about tragic events that had just occurred in the United States. Minor turns the floor over to moderator and investigative reporter Nikole Hannah-Jones, who delves into a brief history of the inequity in the U.S. education system.

@@sturgemoreland1381 keep up the NO FACTS opinions .... they are mildly amusing - - - Hannah-Jones also admitted that her “history,” being a “narrative,” by definition is not directed by the evidence. It is no coincidence that in June 2019, Hannah-Jones’s friend and collaborator, Ta-Nehisi Coates, while testifying before Congress for reparations used the same grossly inflated claims by Edward Baptist about the economic contributions of slave labor (by 1836, “almost half of the economic activity in the United States derived directly or indirectly from the cotton produced by the million-odd slaves”) that were used two months later in the 1619 Project. (Baptist, a member of the neo-Marxist New History of Capitalism school has been charged by economic historians with innumeracy.

Thank you for such a great presentation! This was very informative and eye opening how schools are not all getting the same education nation wide! Hearing about the schools in Detroit are heartbreaking.
