In this episode, we talk to Dr. Damon Williams about using data to drive important conversations about increasing education gaps and the innovation needed to close them.  We discuss how to examine our teaching practices, and Dr. Damon shares reflective questions we should ask ourselves about our presence in the classroom.  Dr. Williams also provides large and small-scale ideas and strategies for administrators and teachers to consider for improving diversity, equity, and inclusion. Importantly, he offers suggestions for refreshing and reenergizing ourselves for the hard work in education.
