S1.E17 - Lessons with Impact Series: 3 tips for creating culturally responsive social studies lessons
from The Culture-Centered Classroom · host Jocelynn
On this episode, I share some strategies for effectively creating a culturally responsive social studies classroom. The three quotes I mentioned for consideration are below: “History is always written by the winners. When two cultures clash, the loser is obliterated, and the winner writes the history books—books which glorify their own cause and disparage the conquered foe. As Napoleon once said, ‘What is history, but a fable agreed upon?’” - The Davinci Code “Until the lion learns how to write, every story will glorify the hunter.” - African Proverb “Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world.” -Paulo Freiere (Pedagogy of Oppression) FREE Relevance in Action Thought sheet - https://view.flodesk.com/pages/6243d457692b887cfd45fa0c Grab the Black Greek Organizations resource in my teacher shop!
