Episode Transcript (provided by Riverside)

Today I was absolutely HONORED for my first guest to be Dr. Joy Lawson Davis, the award-winning author and preeminent advocate for Black and marginalized gifted students.

Dr. Davis' most recent books include "Bright Talented & Black: A guide for Families of Black gifted learners 2.0”; “Empowering Underrepresented Gifted Students: Perspectives from the Field” and “Culturally Responsive Teaching in Gifted Education: Building Cultural Competence and Serving Diverse populations”.

Our amazing discussion includes:

• Her experience as a Black gifted child
• The resistance she experienced in doing her work as a Black woman
• How we can identify gifted students and more

NOTE: I apologize sincerely for the background noise. They say the library is a quiet place but I can assure you that is not always true (haha).
