What We're Learning About Learning: Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Practice

Season 1 Episode 4. June 2021: Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Practice

This episode features faculty who engage active strategies to create inclusive, anti-racist classrooms. We grounded this episode in the events of the past year on the Georgetown campus and across the country, as well as the results of our Campus Climate Survey. The goal is to learn from colleagues how to foster a sense of belonging for all students, even when the conversations get tough.
