Counter-Storytelling: An Antiracist Teaching Framework
Facilitators: Ruzeda Fields (student), Amiko Matsuo and Ila de Leon
Tuesday, March 2nd, 2021, 2:00-3:30pm
Zoom https://zoom.us/j/99990746012?pwd=OGZpRVlXUVMvWnVvWkkyR0o3UkU5QT09
The panelists invite you to participate in re-examining educational theory and practice with a critique of majoritarian narratives that end up in our classrooms. We will look to Solórzano and Yosso’s approach to counter-storytelling as a theoretical underpinning to see the social context of our personal educational stories. This workshop will be an experiential, coalitional, and intersectional space in designing curricula that center the lifeways, histories, languages, and literacies of students of color. We will share theory, storytelling, and poetic modes of expression.
