June 01, 2020 Ep. 34- White Fragility in Music Education
Send us a text
In this episode Eric and Justin discuss the current status of the culture and how the racial lines play a major role in the lives of us as people and educators. We warn everyone that this episode is not about how to escape or ignore the deaths Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and George Floyd. Yet how do we let the racial tension of society help us become more vulnerable and authentic to our kids and that we value how they feel. Great educators are ones who identify with their students in all aspects to help them grow.
