'Kick That Knowledge' w/ Ivery Rhodes

When teachers wrote off Ivery Rhodes as "just another Black misguided kid with no future" they had no idea he'd become the change agent our schools desperately need. Ivery's story isn't just about overcoming obstacles—it's about becoming the mentor he needed, creating the village that raised him, and proving that when you lead with love and high expectations, transformation is inevitable as he serves as a Principal at Garfield High School. This conversation will challenge how you think about education, community responsibility, and what it really takes to create lasting change. In this powerful conversation, Assistant Principal Ivery Rhodes breaks down: ✅ Why 58 out of 102 Seattle schools are classified as "highest need" ✅ How he went from homeless to Harvard-level leadership ✅ The real difference between community problems vs school problems ✅ Why there's a critical shortage of Black and brown educators when representation matters most ✅ His blueprint for dismantling the school-to-prison pipeline
