22 - Amelia Nierenberg: reflecting to move forward

Amelia Nierenberg, New York Times reporter, brings needed and helpful insight into the current state of education.  Amelia's observations are not only pertinent to our current situation with her work on the Coronavirus Briefing, but can help move education forward in significant ways.   The conversation isn't entirely about education though . . . we started in Senegal, explored some of the best unknown restaurants in NYC (Amelia was a NY Times food reporter prior to the Coronavirus Briefing), and somehow we discussed a local stray cat named Molly.   The enjoyable interaction will cause us to contemplate in refreshing ways.  Give a listen! Amelia Nierenberg is a writer for the New York Times - focusing on the Coronavirus Schools Briefing.  She has also written about food at the times, worked for the associated press in West Africa, and started things off at the Boston Globe.
