This episode we are joined by Jon Oaks, Mathematics Professor at Macomb Community College, TODOS webmaster, and all-around renaissance man. You think I'm kidding, but you should see his website! We talk about the statement that TODOS released earlier this year on the need to make mathematics classrooms, and all classrooms really, safe, supportive, and vibrant spaces for LGBTQIA+ people. Jon was the lead author of the paper. He shares insights and highlights resources for us.  find the statement on the TODOS website: https://www.todos-math.org/assets/images/TODOS%20LGBTQ%2B%20Statement.pdf  And learn more about our incredible colleague and friend: https://jonoaks.com/

Episode 2: S03 E02 TODOS Statement on LGBTQIA+ Persons w/Jon Oaks

The TODOS: Mathematics for ALL Podcast explores the intersection of mathematics education, social justice, and identity. Season 4 brings in new hosts, Theodore Chao and Shari Kaku, to amplify the voices of educators, activists, and community leaders who challenge traditional norms and reimagining math education as an inclusive and humanizing practice.  Season 4 focuses Invisibility &amp; Hypervisibility in Mathematics Education: An Exploration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Mathematics Identities. Hosts Theodore Chao and Shari Kaku, both Asian American mathematics educators,  engage with guests in deep, narrative-driven conversations that challenge conventional narratives and stereotypes, like the model minority myth. These discussions uncover racial and cultural dynamics, drawing connections between Asian American and Latinx/e students’ experiences, shared struggles, and pathways to self-determination.   Whether you're an educator, advocate, or simply curious about how math intersects with identity and justice, the TODOS Podcast invites you to join these conversations and explore the transformative power of mathematics to uncover hidden narratives, foster solidarity, and reimagine equitable education. Thanks to Dr. Maria Zavala, founder and previous hosts of the TODOS: Mathematics for ALL podcast.
