In  this week’s  episode, we talk about Karens in the classroom. We discuss whiteness, white supremacy and what role this plays in schools in the UK. With 7 out of 10 teachers in the UK, being white women, this is a VERY important issue for us as teachers and as teachers who are part of the global majority.

In this week’s episode, we share our experience of volunteering at the Race 2 Dinner screening of ‘Deconstructing Karen’. It was fantastic to be in community with so many other people working towards addressing oppression and dismantling harmful structures. Saira, Regina and the team were brilliant!
