We’re back! Kicking off season 6 with a webinar hosted by The Black Educators Initiative (BEI), and a chance to share a bit of our thinking about why we do the work we do at Integrated Schools.BEI, as a project of Urban Teachers, is working to grow the Black teaching corps. When executive director, Dr. Robert Simmons, invited us to participate in their speaker series, we were honored, and slightly terrified. Thinking about presenting the work we do to the BEI audience pushed us to stop and consider our focus at Integrated Schools, and why we do the work we do. Between the pandemic and losing our founder a year ago, it was a much needed pause to take the 30,000 ft view of our work and how we view it fitting in to the broader movement for educational justice.A framing that we have been thinking about, internally, is Third Wave School Desegregation. The idea that we have tried desegregation in the past, and, while it has had benefits, it has also had real costs. In order to move towards a true, multiracial demorcracy, we believe we need something new, something that hasn't been tried before, and something that pushes us towards real integration.We're thrilled to be joined by Karla and Rachel from IntegrateNYC for this panel, as their 5Rs of Real Integration provide a powerful framework for thinking about real integration.We're including lots of links in an attempt to give credit to the origin of much of the ideas shared, but special thanks as well to the entire Integrated Schools team for helping to think through this question.And of course, don't forget to register for our next Book Club! LINKS:Black Educators InitiativeUrban TeachersDr. Robert SimmonsIntegrate NYCIntegrateNYC on the Integrated Schools Podcast5 Rs of Real IntegrationDr. David KirklandJustice Thurgood Marshall, Milliken v.

In this episode, Mari and I talk about the trials and tribulations of a first year teacher in a pandemic, her own struggles with transitioning as a student from a charter high school to college, and the impact of her own teachers growing up on her view on the impact a teacher can make. Mari is a 1st year teacher in Dallas ISD, graduated from Davidson in 2020 and from YES Prep North Forest in 2016. She is currently getting her Masters in Education through Urban Teachers and has a dream of returning to YES Prep to teach at the school she attended. Follow us @teatimewithateacher and enjoy!

Kyair, known by his students as Mr. K, is a teacher and was named the 2019 Baltimore City Teacher of the Year. Kyair got into teaching by taking a non-traditional route through a program called Urban Teachers and serves as a wonderful professional role model for his peers and a great leader for his students. 

Many schools and districts are announcing that they want more diversity in the teacher workforce. Far less are moving mountains to ensure the teaching and learning conditions for Black and Brown students and staff are anti-racist environments and conducive for people of color. We have two guests, Ramon DeJesus, Director of Diversity Development in Cambridge Public Schools and Dr Robert Simmons III, Executive Director of the Black Educator Initiative for Urban Teachers. Both of these educators are renowned for their work in educator diversity and development. Enjoy. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/8-black-hands-podcast/message
