In this episode of Nursing EDge Unscripted Scholarship, Dr. Steven Palazzo is joined by Dr. Danica Sumpter, a clinical associate professor at the University of Texas Austin School of Nursing, to discuss effective anti-racist teaching strategies in nursing education. Dr. Sumpter highlights the importance of dismantling white-dominant narratives in nursing, emphasizing the need for introspection and intentional action to challenge these structures. The conversation explores practical approaches for educators, such as co-creating assignments, fostering community, and addressing the historical roots of health inequities. Dr. Sumpter’s insights offer guidance on how nurse educators can begin to implement anti-racist practices in their classrooms and courses.
