Professional Development

This week we explore the Green New Deal for Public Schools, Representative Jamaal Bowman's new congressional bill that would fund public schools throughout the country to the tune of $1.4 trillion so that they can address the climate crisis, systemic injustice, and economic disparity. For context, we do a little review of the Green New Deal and the original New Deal as well.

In episode 1 we introduce the podcast and interrogate the public perception of teachers. We look for answers in several months of education-related articles in The New York Times.
