Show notes

Today we are joined by our good friend Bakari Sellers. He's a best-selling author, a father to twins, a proud husband, and so much more! We're talking about politics today because whether you want to believe it or not, education is political! What happens when we as teachers decide our single voice isn't enough to make a difference? What about teachers who don't bring politics into the classroom for fear of starting uncomfortable conversations? How exactly do we start advocating for ourselves in a profession that often goes undervalued?

We'll answer all these questions and more!
