4.3: "Harmony"

What does it mean to seek and find harmony? In this episode, Kimberly and Sarah break down the definition of "harmony" and how we might pursue thinking about harmony in the classroom with students. How do we make sense of conflicting narratives? And, what do we do when we don't have the same beliefs as other people?
