Show Notes

Our journey concludes with a look towards the future: an inspiring conversation with a group of youth activists who tell their stories and establish a visionary call to action for education leaders and policymakers across the country. We talk to the students about their lived experiences in and out of school, role of student advocacy, and the growing collective impact of youth. In addition to these youth leaders, we are joined by Dr. Gregory Hutchings Jr., superintendent at an urban school system, and Dr. Mary Earick, Dean of the School of Education at NMHU.
