    Today Fazal Rizvi joins me to talk about his forthcoming book entitled Globalization and Educational Futures. Fazal revisits the rise of the popular discourses of globalization, examines many its discontents, and suggests nonetheless that it is too hasty to imagine its total demise.

  • FreshEd #220 – Public Education After Trump (Jack Schneider And Jennifer Berkshire)
    In the aftermath of Trump sweeping to power, I thought it would be valuable to return to an interview I conducted with Jack Schneider and Jennifer Berkshire in the aftermath of the 2020 election. In that conversation, we looked back at education under the first Trump presidency and looked ahead to education during the Biden administration. This will be good context to remember as we prepare for Trump 2.0. Next week I’ll return with a new interview with Michael Apple about what a second Trump presidency might mean for education over the next four years.

    Today we take stock of public education in the United States after the 2020 election. With me are Jack Schneider and Jennifer Berkshire. You may know Jack and Jennifer from their education podcast called Have You Heard, which you should definitely check out. They’ve also recently co-written the book A Wolf at the schoolhouse door: The dismantling of public education and the future of school, which traces the war on public education in America. They argue that we should be watching the changes at the state level after the recent election.
    Jack Schneider is an assistant professor at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell and Jennifer Berkshire is a freelance journalist. They co-host the podcast Have You Heard.

  • FreshEd #371 - Hmagical Girl Academy: Confronting Racism Through Collective Healing (Chundou Her)
    Today we air the next episode of Flux. Chundou Her’s research is on Hmong student experiences at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. It’s significant that UW-Madison is a predominantly white institution in the Midwest of the United States because the Hmong student experiences that Chundou explores is of racism in all its forms – from stereotypical ideas about model minorities, to its links to sexism, and to the many microaggressions common on campus.
    In this episode, Chundou imagines multiple, parallel worlds where layers of universes simultaneously fold into each other. This may be interpreted as a form of dissociation, but it could also be understood as a space for collective healing.
