Education As Liberation: Time Capsule Season 2: Episode 31
About our Podcast Series:
WHBLE founder, award-winning writer, director and applied theatre educator, Ah-Keisha McCans, hosts conversations with educators, school leaders, parents, and students to discuss the state of education, and systemic problems facing youth in schools.
Education as Liberation Podcast season two’s theme is Time Capsule. Featuring interviews spanning the summer of 2020 until Fall of 2021, we reflect on education yester-year-today-future. How much has changed since the pandemic started? How much remains the same? Is education on the path towards liberation or must a new system be built up?
