Equity According to Angela Glover Blackwell

<p>For <a href="https://www.policylink.org/aboutUs/staff/angela-glover-blackwell">Angela Glover Blackwell</a>, a brief stint at the <a href="https://www.rockefellerfoundation.org">Rockefeller Foundation</a> brought to light a fundamental difference in how we think about driving positive change, and fighting for justice abroad versus here at home.  The international focus was on equity - what are the outcomes we hope to achieve, and how do we back into the inputs required?  The national focus was on equality - how do we make sure that everyone gets the same inputs to start with.  </p><p>Through the work of her organization, <a href="https://www.policylink.org/">PolicyLink</a>, she has spent the past 20 years pushing for equity to be our North Star.  Calling for us to recognize equity as moral imperative, equity as a potent antidote to inequality, and equity as the superior growth model for our country.  </p><p>She joins us to talk about the power of an equity mindset, not just in education, but in our entire society.  </p><p><strong> LINKS:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.policylink.org">PolicyLink</a></li><li><a href="https://www.policylink.org/about-us/equity-manifesto">The Equity Manifesto</a></li><li><a href="https://radicalimagination.us">The Radical Imagination Podcast</a></li><li>Ms. Glover Blackwell on <a href="https://ssir.org/articles/entry/the_curb_cut_effect">The Curb-Cut Effect</a></li></ul><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=Podcast">hello@integratedschools.org</a>.</p><p>The Integrated Schools Podcast was created by Courtney Mykytyn a
