Changing Seats: Teachers Listen & Learn from BIPOC Students

March 17, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

A panel led by students, inviting teachers to join us in building more equitable school communities.

About this Event

Teachers joined this listening session, led by and centering the stories, experiences, and ideas of BIPOC students!

Teachers play a crucial role in supporting and advocating for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) students, ensuring students can learn and thrive in their classrooms. Black and Brown students in our schools experience microaggressions, racist bullying, and tokenizing, which affect their wellbeing and ability to succeed. They are calling on all of us to hear their stories and to support them.

How can teachers show up in allyship to BIPOC students and in solidarity with one another? How can we work together to address racism in schools and uphold racial equity in our classrooms?

By beginning with storytelling and listening, this event was a starting place to explore these questions, to foster collaboration between students and teachers, and to take action together toward racial equity.
