Because you can’t improve schools without talking.
Mica Pollock created Schooltalking.org to offer tools and dialogue supports for educators, youth and families trying to create education communities where everyone is supported and valued.
Imagine schools where folks offer necessary supports and opportunities to every child and all groups of children, make more opportunities to go around, benefit from the rich diversity of all communities, and treat all people humanely.
That’s what antiracism and equity work are about. Let’s talk toward that.
Such efforts support and benefit us all. And despite recent caricatures, this work isn’t about “indoctrinating” anyone at all! In fact, it’s all about questioning how to improve schools, and questioning the pros/cons for kids of what we already do.
Mica is Professor of Education Studies at the University of California, San Diego.
Mica has spent decades working to create talk tools that help people work toward supporting all students in schools. She is constantly seeking tools and ideas that help improve supports to young people, and she wants to talk with you to support your work.
