Teaching Truth To Power

A New Discussion Series brought to you by the Center for Global Education

In this groundbreaking discussion series hosted by the Center for Global Education's, Dr. Anthony Jackson, Teaching Truth to Power looks at the root causes of systemic racism in public education, identifies exactly what it looks like, and empowers parents and educators to do something about it! Using our global competence model as a framework, the discussion series will aim to educate teachers and to provide specific tools to use in classrooms to ensure all students are given equal opportunity to succeed.
