Portland teacher Bryan Chu and pre-recorded comments from former Tuscon teacher Curtis Acosta address the struggles to provide culturally empowering classes to our youth.
Join us as we discuss the struggle for educators to make their classes culturally relevant and empowering. Today we are joined by Bryan Chu of the Portland Association of teachers and hear recorded excerpts of an interview with Curtis Acosta, former Mexican American Studies teacher in the Tuscon Unified School District. Why is the establishment so fearful of this kind of education? How outspoken has the teachers' union been in support of the educators who pioneer and push the envelope toward culturally empowering education and in defending those teachers from attack?
