Andratesha Fritzgerald — Founder and lead consultant of Building Blocks of Brilliance; international speaker and author of Antiracism and Universal Design for Learning: Building Expressways to Success. Her work pushes schools to move from a culture of power to a culture of honor, combining UDL with anti-racism so every learner is seen, heard, and supported.
Tim Villegas interviews Andratesha Fritzgerald about building a culture of honor in schools—shifting power by co‑designing learning with students and pairing Universal Design for Learning (UDL) with anti-racist practice. They dig into how fear-based control harms learning, what “expert learners” look like at any age, and the difference between equality and equity. The episode was recorded June 30, 2023, the day of major Supreme Court rulings, which shaped parts of the conversation; the show closes with a “mystery question” and a Free Time chat with Carolyn Teigland on navigating DEI language in restrictive contexts.
