• 1:35
  But
• 1:36
  in
• 1:36
  this
• 1:36
  episode,
• 1:37
  as

  with

  Ruben
• 1:41

  Alicia
• 1:43
  as
• 1:43

  as
• 1:43
  the
• 1:43
  rest
• 1:44
  of
• 1:44
  our
• 1:44
  panel,
• 1:45
  we're
• 1:45
  going
• 1:45
  to
• 1:45
  look
• 1:45
  at
• 1:46
  seven
• 1:46
  questions
• 1:47
  that
• 1:48
  they
• 1:48
  offer
• 1:49
  us
• 1:49
  as
• 1:50
  a
• 1:50
  reflective
• 1:50
  exercise
• 1:51
  toward
• 1:51
  the
• 1:51
  end
• 1:52
  of
• 1:52
  their
• 1:52
  book.
• 1:53
  It
• 1:53
  is
• 1:53
  an
• 1:54
  amazing
• 1:54
  conversation.
• 1:56
  I
• 1:56
  thought
• 1:56
  it
• 1:56
  was
• 1:56
  so
• 1:57
  powerful
• 1:57
  I
• 1:58
  wanted
• 1:58
  to
• 1:58
  split
• 1:59
  it
• 1:59
  up
• 1:59
  into
• 1:59
  two
• 2:00
  episodes
• 2:01
  so
• 2:01
  that
• 2:01
  you
• 2:02
  could
• 2:02
  savor
• 2:03
  the
• 2:04
  genius
• 2:04
  that
• 2:05
  comes
• 2:05
  from
• 2:05
  both
• 2:06
  of
• 2:06
  them
• 2:08
  together.
• 2:09
  Let's
• 2:09
  cultivate
• 2:10
  hope
• 2:10
  for
• 2:11
  each
• 2:11
  and
• 2:11
  every
• 2:12
  student.
• 2:13
  And
• 2:13
  now,
• 2:14
  episode
• 2:15
  seven
• 2:15
  at
• 2:15
  the
• 2:16
  second
• 2:16
  part
• 2:16
  of
• 2:16
  our
• 2:17
  conversation
• 2:18
  with
• 2:18
  our
• 2:18
  special
• 2:19
  guest
• 2:19
  Reuben
• 2:20
  Britt
• 2:20
  Jr.
• 2:21
  Talking
• 2:22
  about
• 2:22
  this
• 2:22
  amazing
• 2:23
  text,
• 2:24
  Don't
• 2:24
  Dismiss
• 2:25
  my
• 2:26
  the
• 2:26
  Tapestry
• 2:27
  of
• 2:27
  Colonized
• 2:27
  Voices
• 2:28
  in
• 2:28
  White
• 2:29
  Space.
• 2:30
  You're
• 2:30
  not
• 2:30
  going
• 2:30
  to
• 2:31
  want
• 2:31
  to
• 2:31
  miss
• 2:31
  this.
• 2:32
  Take
• 2:32
  a
• 2:32
  listen.
• 2:37
  So
• 2:38
  in
• 2:38
  the
• 2:38
  book,
• 2:39
  Dr.
• 2:39
  Munro
• 2:40
  and
• 2:41
  Ruben
• 2:42
  identified
• 2:43
  these
• 2:43
  really
• 2:44
  powerful
• 2:45
  questions.
• 2:48
  It
• 2:48
  was
• 2:48
  a
• 2:48
  reflective
• 2:49
  exercise
• 2:49
  in
• 2:49
  one
• 2:50
  of
• 2:50
  the
• 2:50
  chapters.
• 2:50
  But
• 2:51
  I
• 2:51
  think
• 2:52
  it's
• 2:52
  just
• 2:52
  really
• 2:52
  important,
• 2:54
  these
• 2:54
  questions
• 2:55
  that
• 2:55
  really
• 2:56
  form
• 2:56
  the
• 2:56
  basis
• 2:58
  of
• 2:59
  any
• 2:59
  relationship,
• 3:00
  of
• 3:00
  any
• 3:01
  relationship,
• 3:02
  human
• 3:02
  to
• 3:03
  human.
• 3:03
  And
• 3:03
  they're
• 3:03
  absolutely
• 3:04
  brilliant
• 3:05
  questions.
• 3:06
  And
• 3:06
  so
• 3:06
  I
• 3:06
  want
• 3:06
  to
• 3:06
  throw
• 3:07
  those
• 3:07
  into
• 3:07
  this
• 3:07
  space
• 3:08
  to
• 3:09
  continue
• 3:09
  this
• 3:10
  conversation
• 3:12
  around
• 3:12
  this
• 3:13
  amazing
• 3:13
  book.
• 3:14
  And
• 3:14
  these,
• 3:14
  these
• 3:14
  were
• 3:15
  the
• 3:15
  questions
• 3:16
  that
• 3:16
  I
• 3:16
  thought
• 3:17
  were
• 3:17
  just
• 3:18
  genius.
• 3:20
  Simple,
• 3:21
  yet
• 3:21
  so
• 3:21
  powerful.
• 3:23
  Do
• 3:23
  you
• 3:23
  know
• 3:24
  me?
• 3:26
  What
• 3:27
  do
• 3:27
  you
• 3:27
  know
• 3:28
  about
• 3:28
  me?
• 3:29
  Do
• 3:30
  you
• 3:30
  care
• 3:31
  about
• 3:31
  me?
• 3:33
  Do
• 3:33
  you
• 3:34
  want
• 3:34
  to
• 3:34
  know
• 3:35
  more
• 3:36
  about
• 3:36
  me?
• 3:38
  What
• 3:38
  are
• 3:38
  your
• 3:39
  assumptions?
• 3:41
  How
• 3:42
  can
• 3:42
  we
• 3:43
  better
• 3:43
  understand
• 3:44
  each
• 3:44
  other?
• 3:46
  Finally,
• 3:47
  Do
• 3:48
  I
• 3:48
  matter
• 3:48
  to
• 3:48
  you?
• 3:49
  I'm
• 3:50
  just
• 3:50
  gonna
• 3:50
  open
• 3:51
  this
• 3:51
  up
• 3:51
  to
• 3:51
  say
• 3:52
  I
• 3:54
  just
• 3:55
  love
• 3:56
  those
• 3:57
  questions.
• 3:58
  Why
• 3:59
  are
• 3:59
  those
• 3:59
  so
• 3:59
  powerful?
• 4:00
  I
• 4:00
  think
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  silence
• 4:01
  in
• 4:01
  the
• 4:02
  room,
• 4:02
  you
• 4:02
  know,
• 4:03
  often
• 4:04
  I
• 4:04
  know
• 4:05
  when
• 4:05
  you're,
• 4:05
  you're
• 4:05
  editing.
• 4:06
  You
• 4:06
  will,
• 4:06
  you
• 4:07
  know,
• 4:07
  you'll,
• 4:07
  you'll
• 4:08
  cut
• 4:08
  those
• 4:08
  out.
• 4:08
  But
• 4:08
  I
• 4:09
  think
• 4:09
  that
• 4:10
  that
• 4:11
  pause
• 4:11
  is
• 4:12
  so
• 4:13
  important.
• 4:14
  I
• 4:14
  think
• 4:15
  those
• 4:15
  questions
• 4:16
  are,
• 4:18
  are,
• 4:18
  are
• 4:19
  simple.
• 4:19
  And
• 4:19
  I
• 4:19
  know
• 4:19
  I
• 4:20
  said
• 4:20
  this
• 4:20
  earlier,
• 4:20
  but
• 4:20
  they're
• 4:21
  the,
• 4:21
  they're
• 4:22
  so
• 4:22
  profound.
• 4:24
  And
• 4:24
  to
• 4:24
  really
• 4:25
  think
• 4:25
  about
• 4:26
  as
• 4:27
  educators,
• 4:28
  asking
• 4:29
  those
• 4:30
  questions
• 4:31
  of
• 4:32
  our
• 4:32
  students
• 4:32
  that
• 4:33
  we're
• 4:33
  entrusted
• 4:33
  with
• 4:35
  and
• 4:36
  being
• 4:36
  willing
• 4:38
  to
• 4:39
  listen
• 4:40
  to
• 4:41
  have
• 4:41
  that,
• 4:42
  that
• 4:42
  pause
• 4:42
  that
• 4:43
  we
• 4:43
  just
• 4:43
  had
• 4:45
  and
• 4:45
  let
• 4:46
  that
• 4:46
  take
• 4:46
  up
• 4:47
  space.
• 4:50
  Yeah,
• 4:50
  I
• 4:50
  was
• 4:51
  reading
• 4:51
  them
• 4:51
  and
• 4:51
  thinking
• 4:52
  about
• 4:53
  the
• 4:53
  story
• 4:53
  that
• 4:54
  Ruben
• 4:54
  told
• 4:55
  us
• 4:55
  earlier
• 4:55
  about
• 4:56
  Jamal.
• 4:58
  And
• 4:59
  what
• 4:59
  comes
• 4:59
  to
• 5:00
  mind
• 5:01
  right
• 5:01
  away
• 5:02
  is
• 5:03
  if
• 5:03
  you
• 5:03
  didn't
• 5:04
  know
• 5:04
  something
• 5:06
  so
• 5:07
  simple
• 5:09
  about
• 5:10
  Jamal,
• 5:11
  what
• 5:12
  else
• 5:12
  are
• 5:12
  you
• 5:13
  missing?
• 5:14
  And
• 5:14
  how
• 5:16
  can
• 5:16
  you
• 5:17
  answer,
• 5:18
  you
• 5:18
  know,
• 5:18
  how
• 5:18
  can
• 5:19
  you
• 5:19
  say,
• 5:19
  right,
• 5:20
  I
• 5:20
  care.
• 5:21
  About
• 5:21
  you,
• 5:22
  I
• 5:23
  just
• 5:23
  feel
• 5:23
  that.
• 5:23
  Again
• 5:24
  and
• 5:24
  again,
• 5:26
  we're
• 5:27
  asked
• 5:27
  as
• 5:27
  educators
• 5:29
  to
• 5:31
  examine
• 5:32
  our
• 5:33
  motives
• 5:34
  for
• 5:36
  taking
• 5:36
  the
• 5:37
  position
• 5:37
  of
• 5:37
  teacher.
• 5:41
  And
• 5:41
  if
• 5:42
  you're
• 5:42
  going
• 5:43
  to
• 5:43
  serve
• 5:44
  in
• 5:44
  this
• 5:45
  profession,
• 5:48
  who
• 5:48
  are
• 5:48
  you
• 5:49
  serving?
• 5:50
  What
• 5:50
  are
• 5:50
  you
• 5:51
  serving?
• 5:52
  And
• 5:54
  if
• 5:55
  you're
• 5:55
  going
• 5:55
  to
• 5:56
  prioritize
• 5:56
  something
• 5:57
  over
• 5:58
  the
• 5:58
  development
• 5:59
  of
• 5:59
  a
• 5:59
  relationship
• 6:01
  with
• 6:01
  the
• 6:02
  young
• 6:02
  people
• 6:02
  with
• 6:02
  whom
• 6:02
  you're
• 6:03
  going
• 6:03
  to
• 6:03
  work,
• 6:03
  I
• 6:03
  feel
• 6:04
  like

  your

  service
• 6:05
  has
• 6:05
  gone

  awry
• 6:06
  right
• 6:06
  from
• 6:06
  the
• 6:06
  get
• 6:07

• 6:08
  And
• 6:08
  those
• 6:09
  questions,
• 6:11
  they
• 6:11
  go
• 6:12
  deeper
• 6:12
  than
• 6:13
  simply,
• 6:14
  you
• 6:15
  know,
• 6:15
  I
• 6:15
  want

  to
• 6:15
  get
• 6:16
  to
• 6:16
  know
• 6:16
  you.
• 6:17
  They
• 6:17
  get
• 6:18
  to
• 6:19
  the
• 6:20
  literal
• 6:20
  and
• 6:21
  figurative
• 6:22
  heart
• 6:23
  of
• 6:24
  the
• 6:24
  matter
• 6:24
  of
• 6:24
  learning.
• 6:26
  I
• 6:26
  want
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  get
• 6:26
  to
• 6:27
  know
• 6:27
  you
• 6:28
  because
• 6:29
  you
• 6:29
  matter.
• 6:32
  And
• 6:32
  I
• 6:33
  want
• 6:33
  to
• 6:33
  understand
• 6:34
  all
• 6:34
  of
• 6:34
  the
• 6:35
  ways
• 6:37
  that
• 6:38
  you
• 6:38
  experience
• 6:39
  the
• 6:39
  world.
• 6:40
  Your
• 6:41
  take
• 6:41
  on
• 6:42
  as
• 6:42
  much
• 6:42
  as
• 6:43
  I
• 6:43
  can
• 6:43
  hear,
• 6:48
  that's
• 6:48
  where
• 6:48
  it
• 6:48
  begins.
• 6:50
  But
• 6:50
  it's
• 6:51
  a,
• 6:52
  that's
• 6:52
  why
• 6:52
  relationships,
• 6:53
  when
• 6:53
  we
• 6:54
  decide
• 6:55
  to
• 6:55
  invest
• 6:56
  in
• 6:56
  their
• 6:56
  creation,
• 6:57
  become
• 6:57
  so
• 6:58
  powerful
• 6:58
  and
• 6:58
  so
• 6:58
  rewarding
• 6:59
  and
• 7:00
  they
• 7:00
  have
• 7:00
  this
• 7:00
  duration
• 7:02
  because
• 7:03
  they,
• 7:03
  they
• 7:04
  start
• 7:04
  in
• 7:04
  the
• 7:04
  right
• 7:04
  place
• 7:05
  and
• 7:05
  they're
• 7:05
  made
• 7:05
  of
• 7:05
  the
• 7:05
  right
• 7:06
  things.
• 7:06
  But
• 7:07
  how
• 7:07
  is
• 7:07
  it
• 7:07
  that,
• 7:09
  how
• 7:09
  is
• 7:09
  it,
• 7:12
  it's
• 7:12
  possible
• 7:12
  to
• 7:13
  even
• 7:13
  think
• 7:13
  we're
• 7:14
  doing
• 7:14
  this
• 7:14
  work
• 7:15
  without
• 7:16
  prioritizing
• 7:17
  and
• 7:18
  using
• 7:18
  questions
• 7:19
  like
• 7:19
  this
• 7:20
  as
• 7:21
  our
• 7:21
  origin,
• 7:22
  as
• 7:22
  our
• 7:22
  beginning,
• 7:22
  as
• 7:23
  our
• 7:23
  outset,
• 7:24
  as
• 7:24
  our
• 7:24
  roadmap.
• 7:26
  Mike,
• 7:28
  well
• 7:28
  said.
• 7:30
  What's
• 7:30
  interesting
• 7:31
  in
• 7:32
  terms
• 7:32
  of
• 7:32
  what
• 7:33
  you
• 7:33
  said
• 7:33
  is
• 7:33
  that
• 7:34
  sometimes
• 7:36
  they
• 7:36
  may.
• 7:39
  You.
• 7:39
  Know,
• 7:39
  they
• 7:40
  may
• 7:41
  respond
• 7:42
  to
• 7:42
  a
• 7:43
  couple
• 7:43
  of
• 7:43
  those
• 7:43
  questions
• 7:44
  in
• 7:44
  a
• 7:44
  positive
• 7:45
  way,
• 7:45
  but
• 7:45
  you
• 7:45
  gotta,
• 7:45
  you
• 7:45
  gotta
• 7:46
  be
• 7:46
  all
• 7:46
  in.
• 7:46
  You
• 7:47
  can't
• 7:47
  be,
• 7:48
  you
• 7:48
  know,
• 7:49
  half
• 7:49
  here
• 7:49
  and
• 7:49
  half
• 7:50
  there.
• 7:51
  And
• 7:52
  sometimes
• 7:52
  because
• 7:53
  they
• 7:53
  do,
• 7:54
  they're
• 7:54
  not
• 7:54
  all
• 7:54
  in.
• 7:56
  Many
• 7:56
  of
• 7:56
  these
• 7:57
  students
• 7:57
  are
• 7:57
  traumatized,
• 8:00
  and
• 8:01
  because
• 8:01
  of
• 8:01
  that,
• 8:02
  it
• 8:02
  prevents
• 8:03
  them
• 8:03
  from
• 8:04
  being,
• 8:05
  prevents
• 8:06
  them
• 8:06
  from
• 8:06
  learning.
• 8:07
  And
• 8:08
  statistics
• 8:08
  are
• 8:09
  showing
• 8:09
  the
• 8:09
  students
• 8:09
  are
• 8:09
  traumatized,
• 8:11
  they
• 8:11
  are
• 8:11
  unable
• 8:12
  to
• 8:12
  learn.
• 8:12
  It
• 8:13
  even
• 8:13
  affects
• 8:13
  the
• 8:13
  iq.
• 8:14
  I
• 8:15
  mean,
• 8:15
  it
• 8:15
  goes
• 8:16
  on
• 8:16
  and
• 8:16
  on
• 8:16
  and
• 8:16
  on
• 8:17
  about
• 8:17
  that.
• 8:17
  And
• 8:18
  I
• 8:18
  call
• 8:18
  these
• 8:19
  folks
• 8:19
  dream
• 8:20
  killers.
• 8:21
  And
• 8:23
  I
• 8:23
  can
• 8:23
  tell
• 8:23
  you
• 8:24
  another
• 8:24
  story
• 8:25
  that
• 8:25
  happened
• 8:26
  even
• 8:26
  at
• 8:27
  this
• 8:27
  college
• 8:27
  that
• 8:27
  I
• 8:27
  work
• 8:27
  at.
• 8:28
  You
• 8:28
  had
• 8:28
  a
• 8:28
  young
• 8:29
  lady
• 8:29
  who
• 8:29
  had
• 8:29
  taken
• 8:30
  a
• 8:30
  professor
• 8:31
  taking
• 8:32
  a
• 8:32
  couple
• 8:32
  of
• 8:32
  classes
• 8:32
  with
• 8:32
  this
• 8:33
  professor.
• 8:34
  So
• 8:34
  she
• 8:34
  knew
• 8:34
  him
• 8:34
  and
• 8:35
  he
• 8:35
  knew
• 8:35
  her.
• 8:36
  So
• 8:36
  she
• 8:37
  was
• 8:37
  looking
• 8:38
  at
• 8:38
  applying.
• 8:39
  She
• 8:39
  was
• 8:39
  applying
• 8:40
  to
• 8:40
  the
• 8:40
  University
• 8:40
  of
• 8:41
  Pennsylvania.
• 8:42
  And
• 8:42
  so
• 8:42
  she
• 8:42
  went
• 8:43
  to
• 8:43
  him
• 8:43
  and
• 8:43
  asked
• 8:43
  him
• 8:43
  for
• 8:44
  a
• 8:44
  letter
• 8:45
  of
• 8:45
  reference.
• 8:46
  And
• 8:46
  he
• 8:46
  told
• 8:46
  her
• 8:47
  she
• 8:47
  wasn't
• 8:47
  penned
• 8:48
  material.
• 8:52
  And
• 8:52
  she
• 8:52
  was
• 8:53
  devastated.
• 8:53
  Fortunately,
• 8:54
  she
• 8:54
  knew.
• 8:55
  She
• 8:55
  went
• 8:55
  to
• 8:55
  somebody
• 8:56
  who
• 8:57
  looked
• 8:57
  like
• 8:57
  her,
• 8:59
  who
• 8:59
  encouraged
• 8:59
  her
• 9:00
  and
• 9:00
  said,
• 9:01
  I
• 9:01
  will
• 9:01
  write
• 9:01
  you
• 9:01
  the
• 9:02
  letter
• 9:02
  of
• 9:02
  recommendation.
• 9:04
  I
• 9:05
  believe
• 9:05
  it
• 9:05
  was
• 9:05
  about
• 9:05
  five
• 9:06
  or
• 9:06
  six
• 9:06
  years
• 9:06
  ago.
• 9:07
  She
• 9:08
  completed
• 9:08
  her
• 9:08
  doctorate
• 9:08
  degree.
• 9:09
  Oh,
• 9:09
  my
• 9:10
  gosh.
• 9:11
  At
• 9:12
  the
• 9:12
  University
• 9:12
  of
• 9:12
  Penn.
• 9:13
  Right.
• 9:16
  But
• 9:16
  that's
• 9:17
  just
• 9:17
  probably
• 9:18
  one
• 9:20
  trillionth
• 9:21
  if
• 9:21
  there's
• 9:22
  such
• 9:22
  word
• 9:23
  of
• 9:23
  stories
• 9:23
  like
• 9:24
  that.
• 9:24
  Absolutely.
• 9:25
  You
• 9:26
  know,
• 9:27
  and
• 9:27
  then,
• 9:27
  you
• 9:28
  know,
• 9:28
  it's
• 9:29
  so
• 9:30
  do
• 9:30
  they
• 9:30
  really
• 9:31
  matter?
• 9:31
  Do
• 9:32
  you
• 9:32
  really
• 9:32
  care
• 9:32
  about
• 9:33
  me?
• 9:34
  All
• 9:35
  these
• 9:35
  types.
• 9:35
  And
• 9:35
  then
• 9:35
  going
• 9:36
  back
• 9:36
  to
• 9:36
  this
• 9:37
  person's
• 9:37
  assumption,
• 9:38
  yeah,
• 9:38
  she's
• 9:39
  a
• 9:39
  good
• 9:39
  student.
• 9:39
  She
• 9:40
  did
• 9:40
  well
• 9:40
  in
• 9:40
  my
• 9:40
  class.
• 9:41
  But
• 9:42
  I
• 9:43
  don't
• 9:43
  think,
• 9:43
  see,
• 9:44
  going
• 9:44
  back.
• 9:44
  To
• 9:45
  personal
• 9:45
  bias,
• 9:46
  personal
• 9:46
  bias
• 9:47
  and
• 9:47
  this
• 9:48
  idea
• 9:48
  that
• 9:49
  when
• 9:49
  you
• 9:49
  live
• 9:50
  an
• 9:50
  unexamined
• 9:51
  life,
• 9:51
  you.
• 9:51
  You're
• 9:52
  totally
• 9:52
  numb
• 9:53
  to
• 9:54
  when
• 9:55
  bias
• 9:55
  is
• 9:55
  operating.
• 9:57
  And
• 9:58
  it's
• 9:58
  that
• 9:58
  power
• 9:59
  structure
• 10:00
  that
• 10:00
  Alicia
• 10:01
  talked
• 10:01
  about
• 10:01
  earlier,
• 10:02
  right?
• 10:03
  So
• 10:03
  it's
• 10:03
  this.
• 10:04
  I.
• 10:04
  I
• 10:04
  hold
• 10:05
  this.
• 10:05
  This
• 10:06
  power
• 10:06
  over
• 10:07
  you
• 10:09
  and
• 10:11
  enough
• 10:11
  to
• 10:11
  be
• 10:12
  able
• 10:12
  to
• 10:12
  kill
• 10:12
  these
• 10:13
  dreams.
• 10:15
  And
• 10:16
  I'm
• 10:16
  ashamed
• 10:16
  to
• 10:16
  say,
• 10:17
  Reuben,
• 10:17
  I.
• 10:18
  I
• 10:18
  know
• 10:18
  that
• 10:18
  story
• 10:19
  in
• 10:19
  another
• 10:19
  school,
• 10:20
  in
• 10:21
  another
• 10:21
  setting.
• 10:24
  I
• 10:25
  think,
• 10:25
  I
• 10:25
  think
• 10:25
  we
• 10:25
  all.
• 10:26
  Right.
• 10:26
  I
• 10:27
  think
• 10:27
  we
• 10:27
  all
• 10:27
  have
• 10:28
  countless
• 10:29
  examples
• 10:30
  of
• 10:32
  whether,
• 10:32
  you
• 10:32
  know,
• 10:33
  Alicia
• 10:33
  said
• 10:33
  it
• 10:33
  in
• 10:34
  the
• 10:34
  very
• 10:34
  first
• 10:34
  episode
• 10:35
  of
• 10:35
  this
• 10:36
  season.
• 10:36
  We
• 10:36
  continue
• 10:37
  to
• 10:37
  say
• 10:37
  it.
• 10:37
  Reuben
• 10:38
  just
• 10:38
  said
• 10:38
  it,
• 10:38
  right?
• 10:39
  Are
• 10:39
  we
• 10:40
  in
• 10:40
  the
• 10:40
  business.
• 10:42
  Of
• 10:43
  cultivating
• 10:43
  hope
• 10:44
  or
• 10:45
  killing
• 10:45
  dreams?
• 10:46
  Because
• 10:46
  it's
• 10:46
  not.
• 10:47
  You
• 10:47
  don't
• 10:47
  get
• 10:47
  to
• 10:47
  do
• 10:48
  both,
• 10:48
  right?
• 10:49
  You
• 10:50
  don't
• 10:50
  get
• 10:50
  to
• 10:50
  do
• 10:50
  both.
• 10:51
  Maybe
• 10:51
  you
• 10:51
  get
• 10:51
  to
• 10:51
  do
• 10:52
  one,
• 10:52
  right?
• 10:53
  So
• 10:53
  which
• 10:53
  one
• 10:53
  are
• 10:53
  you
• 10:54
  choosing?
• 10:55
  Which
• 10:56
  one
• 10:56
  are
• 10:56
  you
• 10:56
  choosing?
• 10:56
  And
• 10:56
  who
• 10:57
  are
• 10:57
  you
• 10:57
  choosing
• 10:57
  it
• 10:57
  for?
• 10:58
  Right?
• 10:58
  Who
• 10:59
  are
• 10:59
  you
• 10:59
  choosing
• 10:59
  it
• 10:59
  for?
• 11:00
  And
• 11:00
  then
• 11:00
  own
• 11:01
  it,
• 11:01
  right?
• 11:02
  So
• 11:03
  if
• 11:03
  you're
• 11:03
  here
• 11:05
  and
• 11:06
  you
• 11:06
  cultivate
• 11:07
  hope
• 11:07
  and
• 11:08
  you
• 11:08
  promoting
• 11:08
  hope,
• 11:09
  own
• 11:09
  that.
• 11:10
  If
• 11:10
  you're
• 11:11
  here
• 11:11
  and
• 11:11
  you
• 11:12
  killing
• 11:12
  dreams,
• 11:13
  own
• 11:13
  it,
• 11:14
  right?
• 11:14
  But
• 11:14
  don't
• 11:15
  mask
• 11:16
  dream
• 11:17
  killing
• 11:17
  with
• 11:18
  cultivating
• 11:18
  hope,
• 11:19
  right?
• 11:20
  Then
• 11:20
  you're
• 11:20
  lukewarm,
• 11:21
  right?
• 11:22
  And
• 11:22
  that's
• 11:22
  the
• 11:23
  state
• 11:23
  of
• 11:24
  education
• 11:24
  today.
• 11:25
  If
• 11:25
  you
• 11:26
  want
• 11:26
  to
• 11:26
  sit
• 11:27
  and
• 11:27
  collect
• 11:27
  a
• 11:28
  check
• 11:28
  and
• 11:29
  do
• 11:29
  two
• 11:29
  months
• 11:30
  off,
• 11:30
  like,
• 11:31
  be
• 11:31
  true
• 11:32
  to
• 11:32
  yourself,
• 11:33
  right?
• 11:34
  Because
• 11:34
  students
• 11:35
  are
• 11:35
  coming
• 11:35
  into
• 11:36
  space
• 11:36
  damaged.
• 11:37
  Educators
• 11:38
  are
• 11:38
  coming
• 11:38
  into
• 11:39
  space
• 11:39
  damage.
• 11:40
  There
• 11:40
  is
• 11:41
  a
• 11:41
  whole
• 11:41
  section
• 11:41
  in
• 11:42
  the
• 11:42
  book
• 11:42
  dedicated
• 11:43
  to
• 11:43
  discussing
• 11:44
  and
• 11:45
  Deconstructing
• 11:45
  the
• 11:46
  invisible
• 11:46
  backpack,
• 11:47
  right?
• 11:48
  And
• 11:49
  our
• 11:49
  space
• 11:50
  here
• 11:51
  is
• 11:52
  dedicated
• 11:52
  to
• 11:53
  powerful
• 11:53
  student
• 11:54
  care
• 11:54
  and
• 11:54
  dignity
• 11:55
  and
• 11:55
  respect
• 11:56
  and
• 11:56
  hope.
• 11:57
  But
• 11:58
  we
• 11:58
  have
• 11:59
  some
• 11:59
  real
• 11:59
  damaged
• 12:00
  educators,
• 12:01
  right,
• 12:01
  that
• 12:01
  are
• 12:02
  coming
• 12:02
  in
• 12:02
  with
• 12:03
  adult
• 12:03
  childhood
• 12:04
  experiences,
• 12:05
  right?
• 12:05
  Those
• 12:05
  aces.
• 12:06
  And
• 12:07
  they
• 12:07
  haven't
• 12:07
  even
• 12:08
  unpacked
• 12:08
  their
• 12:08
  stuff,
• 12:09
  right?
• 12:09
  But
• 12:09
  then
• 12:10
  they
• 12:10
  stand
• 12:10
  in
• 12:11
  front
• 12:11
  of
• 12:11
  our
• 12:11
  students
• 12:13
  in
• 12:14
  this
• 12:14
  attempt
• 12:14
  to
• 12:15
  develop
• 12:16
  relationship.
• 12:17
  Well,
• 12:17
  if
• 12:17
  you
• 12:17
  have
• 12:18
  damage,
• 12:19
  right,
• 12:19
  then
• 12:20
  all
• 12:20
  you
• 12:20
  can
• 12:20
  give
• 12:20
  is
• 12:21
  damage,
• 12:21
  right?
• 12:22
  But
• 12:22
  at
• 12:22
  least
• 12:23
  center
• 12:23
  that
• 12:25
  and
• 12:25
  be
• 12:25
  able
• 12:25
  to
• 12:26
  have
• 12:26
  those
• 12:26
  transparent
• 12:27
  conversations
• 12:28
  and
• 12:28
  know
• 12:28
  that
• 12:28
  you
• 12:29
  can
• 12:29
  do.
• 12:29
  But
• 12:29
  so
• 12:29
  much
• 12:32
  and
• 12:32
  no
• 12:33
  more.
• 12:33
  But
• 12:34
  I
• 12:34
  think
• 12:34
  what's
• 12:35
  missing
• 12:36
  is
• 12:36
  what
• 12:36
  centers
• 12:37
  the
• 12:37
  book,
• 12:37
  which
• 12:37
  is
• 12:38
  a
• 12:38
  truth
• 12:38
  narrative.
• 12:40
  So
• 12:40
  those
• 12:41
  questions
• 12:41
  that
• 12:41
  you
• 12:42
  lift
• 12:42
  so
• 12:43
  nicely,
• 12:43
  Grant,
• 12:45
  we
• 12:46
  have
• 12:46
  located
• 12:47
  towards
• 12:47
  the
• 12:47
  end
• 12:48
  of
• 12:48
  the
• 12:48
  book
• 12:49
  because
• 12:50
  we
• 12:50
  were
• 12:51
  deliberate
• 12:51
  and
• 12:51
  mindful
• 12:52
  because
• 12:53
  the
• 12:54
  book
• 12:54
  is
• 12:54
  developed
• 12:55
  like
• 12:55
  a
• 12:55
  curriculum.
• 12:56
  It's
• 12:56
  a
• 12:56
  build
• 12:56
  up,
• 12:57
  right?
• 12:58
  Every,
• 12:59
  every,
• 13:01
  every
• 13:01
  chapter
• 13:01
  starts
• 13:02
  with
• 13:02
  a
• 13:02
  quote,
• 13:02
  an
• 13:03
  epigraph.
• 13:04
  Then
• 13:04
  you
• 13:05
  have
• 13:05
  some
• 13:05
  pre
• 13:06
  questions,
• 13:07
  then
• 13:07
  you
• 13:07
  have
• 13:07
  some
• 13:08
  narrative,
• 13:08
  then
• 13:08
  you
• 13:09
  have
• 13:09
  some
• 13:09
  takeaways,
• 13:10
  then
• 13:10
  you
• 13:10
  have
• 13:10
  some
• 13:10
  reflection
• 13:11
  questions.
• 13:12
  So
• 13:13
  in
• 13:13
  order
• 13:13
  to
• 13:14
  shift
• 13:14
  paradigms,
• 13:15
  we
• 13:15
  know
• 13:16
  that
• 13:16
  everyone
• 13:16
  is
• 13:16
  sitting
• 13:17
  in
• 13:17
  a,
• 13:17
  in
• 13:17
  a
• 13:18
  really
• 13:19
  deeply
• 13:20
  entrenched
• 13:20
  mental
• 13:21
  model.
• 13:22
  They
• 13:23
  really
• 13:23
  have
• 13:23
  to
• 13:24
  sit
• 13:24
  with
• 13:24
  themselves.
• 13:25
  Even
• 13:25
  a
• 13:25
  resistor
• 13:26
  that
• 13:26
  resists
• 13:27
  needs
• 13:27
  to
• 13:27
  sit
• 13:27
  with
• 13:28
  themselves
• 13:28
  if
• 13:29
  they
• 13:29
  really
• 13:29
  want
• 13:30
  to
• 13:30
  be
• 13:30
  impactful,
• 13:31
  positively
• 13:32
  impactful
• 13:33
  and
• 13:33
  cultivate
• 13:34
  hope
• 13:35
  for
• 13:35
  the
• 13:35
  students
• 13:36
  that
• 13:36
  we
• 13:36
  serve.
• 13:38
  You
• 13:38
  know,
• 13:39
  and
• 13:40
  Dr.
• 13:40
  Munro
• 13:41
  knows
• 13:41
  about
• 13:41
  this
• 13:42
  story.
• 13:44
  I
• 13:44
  remember
• 13:45
  back
• 13:45
  in
• 13:46
  my
• 13:46
  days
• 13:46
  when
• 13:46
  I
• 13:46
  was
• 13:46
  teaching
• 13:47
  Boston
• 13:47
  public
• 13:48
  school
• 13:48
  system
• 13:49
  and
• 13:51
  there
• 13:52
  was
• 13:52
  this,
• 13:53
  you
• 13:53
  know,
• 13:54
  we
• 13:54
  were
• 13:54
  getting
• 13:54
  ready
• 13:54
  to
• 13:55
  go
• 13:55
  on
• 13:55
  a
• 13:55
  spring
• 13:55
  break,
• 13:56
  so
• 13:56
  I
• 13:56
  would
• 13:56
  go
• 13:56
  around
• 13:56
  and
• 13:56
  ask
• 13:57
  the
• 13:57
  students
• 13:57
  what,
• 13:57
  what
• 13:58
  are
• 13:58
  they
• 13:58
  going
• 13:58
  to
• 13:58
  be
• 13:58
  doing
• 13:59
  during
• 13:59
  the
• 13:59
  Easter
• 14:00
  break?
• 14:00
  And
• 14:01
  so
• 14:02
  this
• 14:02
  one
• 14:02
  young
• 14:03
  lady
• 14:03
  said,
• 14:04
  Mr.
• 14:05
  Brett,
• 14:05
  I'm
• 14:05
  going
• 14:05
  to,
• 14:06
  I'm
• 14:06
  going,
• 14:07
  going
• 14:07
  to
• 14:08
  Dominican
• 14:09
  Republic
• 14:09
  to
• 14:09
  visit
• 14:09
  my
• 14:10
  grandmother.
• 14:10
  And
• 14:11
  I
• 14:11
  said
• 14:11
  oh
• 14:11
  really?
• 14:12
  And
• 14:12
  I
• 14:12
  said
• 14:12
  so,
• 14:13
  so
• 14:14
  is
• 14:15
  there
• 14:15
  anything
• 14:15
  special
• 14:16
  you're
• 14:16
  going
• 14:16
  to
• 14:16
  be
• 14:16
  doing
• 14:16
  when
• 14:17
  you're
• 14:17
  visiting
• 14:17
  your
• 14:17
  grandmother?
• 14:18
  Oh,
• 14:18
  she,
• 14:19
  she
• 14:19
  likes
• 14:19
  to
• 14:19
  cook.
• 14:19
  And,
• 14:20
  and
• 14:20
  so
• 14:21
  you
• 14:21
  could
• 14:21
  see
• 14:21
  the
• 14:21
  look
• 14:21
  on
• 14:22
  her
• 14:22
  face
• 14:22
  that
• 14:22
  she.
• 14:24
  Of
• 14:24
  excitement
• 14:24
  that
• 14:25
  I
• 14:25
  was
• 14:25
  listening
• 14:25
  to
• 14:25
  her,
• 14:26
  that
• 14:26
  I
• 14:26
  cared.
• 14:27
  And,
• 14:28
  and
• 14:29
  I
• 14:29
  said,
• 14:29
  you
• 14:29
  know,
• 14:30
  your
• 14:30
  whole
• 14:30
  family
• 14:30
  going.
• 14:31
  So
• 14:31
  I
• 14:31
  kept
• 14:31
  asking
• 14:32
  a
• 14:32
  question.
• 14:32
  So
• 14:33
  it,
• 14:33
  it.
• 14:33
  And
• 14:34
  also
• 14:35
  went
• 14:35
  back
• 14:35
  body
• 14:36
  language
• 14:36
  too,
• 14:37
  because,
• 14:38
  but
• 14:38
  anyways,
• 14:39
  what
• 14:40
  was
• 14:40
  really
• 14:40
  touching
• 14:41
  about
• 14:41
  this
• 14:41
  story
• 14:41
  was
• 14:42
  when
• 14:44
  she
• 14:44
  came
• 14:45
  back
• 14:45
  to
• 14:45
  school,
• 14:47
  she
• 14:47
  brought
• 14:47
  me
• 14:47
  back
• 14:48
  a
• 14:49
  T
• 14:49
  shirt
• 14:50
  from
• 14:50
  the
• 14:50
  Dominican
• 14:51
  Republic.
• 14:52
  I
• 14:52
  didn't
• 14:52
  ask
• 14:52
  her
• 14:53
  any,
• 14:53
  but
• 14:53
  I
• 14:53
  was
• 14:54
  touched
• 14:54
  by
• 14:54
  that.
• 14:55
  And
• 14:55
  I
• 14:55
  remember
• 14:55
  her
• 14:56
  facial
• 14:56
  expression
• 14:57
  when
• 14:57
  I
• 14:57
  was
• 14:57
  asking
• 14:58
  all
• 14:58
  these
• 14:58
  questions.
• 14:59
  And
• 14:59
  she
• 14:59
  said,
• 14:59
  I
• 15:00
  brought
• 15:00
  you
• 15:00
  something,
• 15:00
  Mr.
• 15:00
  Britt.
• 15:01
  And
• 15:01
  I'm
• 15:01
  like.
• 15:02
  And
• 15:03
  she
• 15:03
  brought
• 15:04
  me
• 15:04
  This
• 15:04
  T
• 15:05
  shirt
• 15:05
  from
• 15:05
  the
• 15:05
  Dominican
• 15:06
  Republican.
• 15:08
  I
• 15:09
  was
• 15:09
  moved
• 15:09
  by
• 15:09
  it.
• 15:09
  That's
• 15:10
  one
• 15:10
  of
• 15:10
  those
• 15:10
  moving
• 15:10
  stories
• 15:12
  that
• 15:12
  happened
• 15:13
  in
• 15:13
  my
• 15:13
  career.
• 15:15
  But
• 15:16
  that's
• 15:16
  just
• 15:18
  a
• 15:18
  small
• 15:19
  story
• 15:20
  of
• 15:21
  many
• 15:22
  that
• 15:22
  I
• 15:23
  could
• 15:23
  share
• 15:23
  with
• 15:23
  you.
• 15:23
  But
• 15:24
  it
• 15:25
  goes
• 15:25
  back
• 15:25
  to
• 15:25
  those
• 15:25
  questions.
• 15:26
  Grant,
• 15:28
  do
• 15:28
  you
• 15:28
  care?
• 15:29
  And
• 15:29
  I
• 15:29
  did
• 15:29
  care.
• 15:31
  And
• 15:31
  also
• 15:32
  we
• 15:32
  have
• 15:33
  this
• 15:34
  thing
• 15:34
  where
• 15:35
  when
• 15:35
  teachers
• 15:36
  will
• 15:37
  tell
• 15:37
  students
• 15:38
  information
• 15:39
  that
• 15:40
  can
• 15:40
  be
• 15:40
  helpful,
• 15:41
  but
• 15:42
  the
• 15:42
  way
• 15:43
  they
• 15:43
  deliver
• 15:44
  it,
• 15:45
  if
