S E1285: In Class with Carr, Ep. 285: Black to School


Listen Later

The formal academic school year is underway in most places in a United States facing accelerated fascist overtures from elements in federal and state governments. Memories of Anti-Black state action evoked at the 20th anniversary of the Hurricane Katrina disaster can be juxtaposed against current attacks on both state and African memory and education to remind us that we live in a moment demanding more of us than compliance. We must look to ourselves, both to survive and to grow. Other anniversaries we consider this week include the birthday of Asa G. Hilliard III, a pioneering educator who used his platform to remind us of our best practices in education across time and space. 

As we continue our work of jailbreaking the Black University, this week we continue to pose more essential questions: What is education? What should it be? How do we meet the challenge of both defending hard-won political victories and of building institutions that can sustain us against escalating fascism, white nationalism and cultural amnesia. Strengthening the Momentum of Memory provides an action that reminds us that, when we have grounded ourselves in our Ways of Knowing, we have transformed ourselves and the Social Structures we have found ourselves in in recent memory. The challenge before us is to do it again. It is time to go Black to School.
