COVID-19: Finding Community in Isolation

<p>Given the reality of social distancing, how do we reconcile a desire for educational justice, a drive for anti-racist education, with the fact that we're stuck at home trying, or maybe not, to educate our kids in vastly inequitable circumstances.  This is not a How-To guide, but a conversation about trying to live our values in challenging times.  Garrett Bucks joins us, along with Anna, to talk through how we are thinking about this moment, for ourselves, our kids, and our communities.  What do we want our kids to remember from this time, and how can we focus our attention, our compassion, and our love outwards, when we are being asked to draw inwards?    </p><p><strong>LINKS:</strong></p><p>Garrett's piece -<a href="https://thewhitepages.substack.com/p/what-i-hope-my-white-economically">What I hope my (white, economically secure) kids are learning right now</a></p><p>Garrett's piece on Courtney's death - <a href="https://thewhitepages.substack.com/p/a-few-thoughts-about-courtney-everts">A few thoughts about Courtney Everts Mykytyn</a></p><p>Garrett's blog - <a href="https://thewhitepages.substack.com">The White Pages</a></p><p>If you are able to give in these times, please consider local organizations helping in your communities.  Here's a place to start, if you need it - <a href="https://www.colorlines.com/articles/power-people-40-grassroots-activists-step-during-covid-19-crisis">Grassroots organizations</a> around the country who are helping from <a href="https://www.colorlines.com">Colorlines</a></p><p> </p><p><a href="http://patreon.com/integratedschools">Join our Patreon</a> to support this work, and connect with us and other listeners to discuss these issues even further.</p><p>Let us know what you think of this episode, suggest future topics, or share your story with us - <a href="https://twitter.com/integratedschls">@integratedschls </a>on twitter, <a href="http://facebook.com/integratedschools">IntegratedSchools</a> on Facebook, or email us <a href="mailto: hello@integratedschools.org?subject=Podcas
