Episode 13, ACT 3: Shawn Ginwright - Soul Rebel

It's the holiday season, and what better way to celebrate this joyous time of year than with a new episode of Teaching Artistry with Courtney J. Boddie! Our newest episode, titled “Soul Rebel,” an inspiring discussion with the one and only Shawn Ginwright, author of “Hope and Healing in Urban Education”, is ready for download! This podcast addresses the questions: What happens when we experience trauma in our lives? What does it mean to survive in moments of trauma? What support does one need to overcome trauma and, more importantly, thrive? As they dig into confronting these questions, Courtney and Shawn talk candidly about how healing through meaningful connection and art in times of trauma can help combat social toxins and institutional inequities that plague our society. They also take a deep dive into Shawn Ginwright's Radical Healing framework, an approach that aims to change the way we think about our individual self and our place in the world, the relationships we have with others and how we can navigate or effect positive social change on our institutions. Don’t miss this fascinating episode!
