The Counter Narrative: Changing the Way We Talk (and think) About Education
In this episode, I chat with Shaun Woodly, a decorated K-12 teacher, university professor, and author whose deep passion and research have allowed him great success as an educator and entrepreneur. He is the architect behind the educator movement “Teach Hustle Inspire” and has written the best-selling book “MC Means Move the Class: How to Spark Engagement and Motivation in Urban and Culturally Diverse Classrooms”. In both education and life, Dr. Woodly believes in having fun! He educates with love, enthusiasm, motivation, and hustle! During our conversation, we talked about the 2%. You know, the percentage of the teaching force that is composed of Black Males. We discussed the desire to force us into constrained positions such as disciplinarians and managers because we are not often considered as capable of being instructional leaders. We examined code switching and whether or not it should be necessary for our students in order to be accepted as “normal.” We differentiated between culturally relevant and culturally responsive. And, of course, we touched on music and explored Woodly's parallel with his favorite medium and his role in the classroom and beyond. Ready to slightly transform your groove? Let's go. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thecounternarrative/support
