A6: I think Kumashiro is simply acknowledging that education was based on the ideals of white supremacy and patriarchy and used to uphold and further those ideals, which means it is inherently oppressive, but providing a context for us to begin to actively undo that #usfccc

A5: I agree, larger structural changes (increase educators of color, eliminate criminalization of youth of color in schools, reevaluate assessments,etc) until things are even able to be considered as "enough" #usfccc

A4: diversify content and start having difficult conversations with elementary students as early as kindergarten so they dont have to 'unlearn' the oppression inherently perpetuated in traditional schoolong #usfccc

@eckm8 @ChrisJuelsgaard @evreigh Being that education was based on the ideals of white supremacy and patriarchy and used to uphold and further those ideals, I believe it to be inherently oppressive and the term simply acknowledges that historical and current context

Q3: On a personal note, I never learned about Iran outside the context of a war in my entire educational experience. On a professional note, this continues to be the case. #usfccc

A2: I tend to lean toward positive framing so instead of anti-oppressive might like liberation education, but there are times when the negative needs to be called out #usfccc

A2: I tend to appreciate positive framing, so instead of anti-oppressive education I'd lean more toward the word liberating, but sometimes it's necessary to directly address the negative #usfccc#usfccc
