Abstract:
Learning to Relearn was born from years of witnessing how our educational systems continue to fail students whose identities fall outside the dominant narrative. But even more than that, it was born from conversations. Conversations with educators of color who felt unseen. With queer teachers who felt silenced. With White educators trying to move beyond guilt and into action. With students who were tired of being told they didn’t belong unless they conformed.
