On June 12, 2020, Mr Rayshard Brooks was shot dead by officers of the Atlanta Police Department (APD). In this episode, I take a moment to reflect on this recent murder and dive into the 4 Is of oppression (Ideological, Institutional, Interpersonal and Internal). The four Is of oppression offer a framework to better understand the far reaching impact structural and institutional racism in American society. I then turn to talking about equity center school improvement and how it can be used to address systemic racism in schools.
