S2E10: TODOS Origin Stories with Nora, Bob & Susie

Do you ever wonder where an organization founded by and for teachers like TODOS comes from? Wonder no more! In this episodes, three people who have been with TODOS since its founding tell us about the origin of TODOS, the meeting, context, and support structures that started it all, and their perspectives of where we are headed. Featuring: Nora Ramirez, Susie Håkansson, and Bob MacDonald – three people whose names you probably see on a bunch of TODOS stuff! References: EMELI (Equity in Mathematics Education Leadership Institute) is referenced by Nora, which is an NSF funded project from Julian Weissglass (UCSB) that influenced founders of TODOS. A little about his work here: http://www.ascd.org/publications/educational-leadership/apr97/vol54/num07/Deepening-Our-Dialogue-About-Equity.aspx We reference Prop 187, an anti-immigrant policy passed in CA in 1994 that influenced AZ and other states to take up anti-immigrant ballot initiatives.
