But what does it actually mean to have humanizing schools and classrooms, and how can we shape a human-centric school system amid the wave of anti-human bills seeking to ban books, ban curriculum, and ostracize our most marginalized communities? Chris McNutt and Nick Covington, two super-dope educators who co-founded the Human Restoration Project, join the show to help us explore these issues! But first, Jeff and Manuel take a look at recent headlines in education including a call to prohibit cell phones in the classroom and a policy change that may soon boost access to higher education for incarcerated persons. → Get your Teach the Truth T-Shirt here! → View this episode on YouTube!
