How Curriculum Shapes Black Children's Identity and Confidence (Part 2 of September 14, 2020 webinar on Cultural Inclusion and Representation)

from Black Representation in the Curriculum: Conversations on Teaching, Culture, Equity, and Belonging · host Dr. Catherine Quinlan

This episode shares a panel discussion that provides perspectives from Black mothers. In this podcast I share a webinar I gave years ago on September 14, 2020, titled, Cultural Inclusion and Representation in Formal and Informal Settings. This presentation provided a sneak peek into some of the auxiliary products I created to accompany my funded project looking at the lived experiences and narratives of African American Gullah/Geechee in the STEM curricula. This podcast shares the last part of the webinar after Dr. Dawn Dow's presentation on "The Deadly Challenges of Raising African American Boys: Black Mothers Navigating the Controlling Image of the 'Thug.' " In this episode you get a glimpse into the questions asked as well as a panel discussion we had as Black mothers. I encourage you to check out Dr. Dawn Dow's work and her book on Mothering While Black on her website: https://www.dawndow.com/book-mothering-while-blackThese conversations among others were important for informing the direction of my work. AI show notes: This interview explores the persistent racial biases in education and policing, the impact of curriculum on Black children's identity, and strategies for fostering positive racial perceptions. Experts discuss implicit bias, curriculum reform, and community-based approaches to support Black youth.This webinar shares some of my beginning thoughts about this work, which I am sharing out more widely now, as I begin to embark on the next stages of this work.
