Sustaining Our HeartWork: Pedagogies of Coalitional Liberation

Centering justice in our teaching in contentious times that continue to be strained by an ongoing pandemic is no small task. This workshop honors the good work teachers have been consistently putting in over the last few years with MCTE’s emphasis on racial justice. In response to recent policy changes that challenge conversation of both race and gender(s) in our classrooms, Rae Oviatt will guide participants through the five tenets of Pedagogies of Coalitional Liberation. In this workshop, participants will have many opportunities to write, discuss, and consider what it might mean to take on combining these five tenets into a model of teaching for justice that guides our students to centering their own advocacy issues and provides a platform for their voices, lived experiences, and expertise.
