OMG MR. BROOOKSSSS !!!!!!!!! THIS DUDE TAUGHT AT THE HIGH SCHOOL I GRADUATED FROM !! He’s so dope!! It’s so refreshing to see a familiar face while I’m going into the Education field. The area that I moved to for college is predominantly white and I was starting to get nervous seeing less and less educators of my same race. I’m only a couple minutes into the podcast, but this episode is very much needed in today’s society ! REPRESENTTTTT !!! ❤

I thought it was just me.. I'm the only black student in my master's program

The number one thing I loved about this episode is they weren’t afraid to say something. Tell, Gabe and Lauren you can tell that they have to watch their tongues a little bit. Hope the producers were taking notes for topics! Final thing, Miss M thank you for saying “ just because your kid is behind, doesn’t mean they have a disability.” I truly believe that’s why we are having such a problem with special education right now is because all of these kids are being wrongfully diagnosed.

@sewer~rat totally get what you mean, but some parent’s thought process is that if they get a diagnosis everything falls off their shoulders to the school. The school isn’t following through exactly to the T with the IEP or 504 so let’s sue them, even though parents haven’t done their part reinforcing at home. The care and support need to come from both school and home. Also, many diagnosticians have been cited saying that they are over booked due to this thinking.

As a black educator, I appreciate this episode SO MUCH.

I can’t even tell you how much this blessed me!! Representation is ESSENTIAL. My classroom is all about diversity and resilience, but I learned so much more with your experiences. Thank you, thank you, thank you, from a mixed-raced teacher teaching in a Title I school. Omg- so good.

Give these folks a show!

As a Black Canadian Teacher, I appreciate this conservation. We struggle with many of the same issues.

This Episode was Everything ❤thank U Black Educators Matter

What is your point, is it that you assume the default is that they dont? You may want to revisit the whole blm (Been Laundering Money) thang. And maybe some Thomas Sowell, who completely debunks the victimhood bs that is taught in prisons... i mean schools🤡

Loved every moment of this episode! 😀. As an black male elementary school teacher, I show up for my students and build relationships that are positive, meaningful, and aid in students becoming positive and productive members of society while staying true to who they are! 😀. Thank you all for representing us!!! 😀😀😀

The part about laws against Black literacy was an aha moment for me. I really loved this podcast, as the sister and wife of teachers!! This one was extra special!

21:00 "it should not be on a parent to teach their kid everything they need to know before they get to kindergarten ". This ingrained philosophy of unaccountability is the deathknell of the black community

As a child who had absolutely little knowledge on my letters, in kindergarten. My parents were immigrant parents they were learning English the same time I was. I can’t 100% blame them on my lack of knowledge prior to kindergarten because they were too busy providing and learning a new language/culture they were unfamiliar with.

@@effortlesslynj Just because it is hard for some people, doesn't mean that the value of parents teaching their kids from a young age should not be prioritized and worked towards. It seems rather defeatist to say "its tough for some, so stride not for greatness".

@@FrickoMode2 no what I’m saying is I know it can be difficult for a lot of families when it comes to helping “prepare” kids for school. As a early education teacher myself. I truly see the importance in education. And the earlier the better. However, I 1000% understand there are circumstances where parents can’t always be able to properly educate their children prior to starting school. Like I stated earlier, my parents were immigrants learning English at the same time I was. How can I expect a lot of parents to properly educate when they themselves have no clue what/ where to start?

@@FrickoMode2 it sounds like you have parents who were able and capable to give you the proper early education. Kuddos, but for a good majority who’s first time seeing/ acknowledging their ABC’s being in pre-K. I personally am not upset

Thank you teachers off duty for this episode. I really enjoyed this as a parent. Also, I need these three to start a podcast because their chemistry was fire 🔥!!!

Wow, wow, wow. Wow! 👏 👏 As an African American who was the only African American on my team, this was so informative. I learned so much and took away notes, hw, and books to read. This was awesome. I often feel like someone who grew up in the Bronx and had a very successful education and made it thus far, that if I can do it, we all can do it. However, there are so many factors to why so many aren't doing it. As a teacher, I always keep my bar high. However, this is so very informative as to background, history, and culture. I hope there is more of this because I'm learning. 👏 👏 👏

Just starting the episode but THANK YOU for lifting Black voices!

Heck YES👏🏼 as parent who happens to be brown I was glad to watch this. For one thing it’s good to switch things up, 2 I can only imagine how this episode might help open up lines to healthy conversation with coworkers. I wish our predominantly white town had Black educators, the children need to see real life examples of what it like to succeed. ❤y’all made my day

Thank you so much for allowing us to do this episode! This was an amazing experience! Can’t wait to do more!

Such a powerful and NEEDED episode! Thank you so much!!!!

This conversation was soooo life-giving!!! As a black educator (and a person with memories of being a black student), there are so many layers of our experience that should be honored and healed. THANK YOU GUYS IMMENSELY, and I look forward to hearing more from you all (and diving deeper into research as an education professional of color) 🙏💯

As a brand new black teacher this was good.

We need more black educators!

he remembers “I am confusion” from that old vine about Arkansas 😂 46:12

Speak on it!!!!! #BlackEducatorsAreHERE🙋🏾‍♀️✊🏽

Thank you, Thank you!! As a current MSW student, my focus has shifted towards education and Black educators within the school systems. As a parent my perspective has changed tremendously as I am growing through the program and learning so much. This conversation has blessed me so much and I am excited for the work I plan to do within the school system. Keep Going Shivy, Dr. Deonna, and Ms. M !!!

I listen to these podcasts every night now for the past few months,I can’t sleep without them now,it really helps with my anxiety thank you ❤❤❤

fantastic discussion of the relationship between policy and how that actually affects people day to day. thank you!

It's crazy because I am from nyc, so my children always had to apply to school and take exam and are interviewed for their school. When I moved them to Delaware, it was so different. Coming from nyc gave my children the upper hand in giving them a foundation of learning from all black school. But they lost some of the resources they would have again if they had stayed in nyc school.

BEST EPISODE EVER.. PLEASE INVITE THEM BACK SOON PLS & TY

Love this dialogue! I teach Pre-K in an urban area so I can relate to many of the issues you all are touching on.

Best episode to date. I usually feel like the black members/guests get used as a token black person to come in with a quick joke but today they actually got to express real ideas and issues.

I love this!! As an African American educator (5th grade) 🥳🥳

This is an episode that I didn’t know I needed as an AAT. This was Mad FYE!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

When you spoke about Read 180, I felt seen! I teach it and I’m glad that you mentioned it!

I'm not a teacher - we need a whole series on this.

I have been watching Ms. M on her videos that she creates, on Insta and TikTok for a few years now. I would love to have her as a teacher, if I were back in school! She’s very real but also very funny with her delivery of the info, whether it’s what happened in class that day or dealing with the adults of those kids. I like that she balances that with also what’s going on in the real world that affects the children. Bring her back again please!

This was absolutely amazing and needed!! Thank you for giving us a voice and doing it so authentically!! ❤👨🏽‍🏫👩🏽‍🏫🧑🏽‍🏫

You all are amazing! I love this so real and raw we need more of this💙 #futureblkeducator

Deonna is 10000000% RIGHT 😍😍😍😍 this is the mentality we are needing to protect & project for our futures 😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍😍🤩 Love this!!! So thankful that you are a teacher 🥰🥰 children under your guidance hopefully take this with them so we can make changes together 🤩😍😍🤩

I enjoyed this episode! Seeing fellow black educators is so important.

This episode was amazing they had amazing chemistry! I need another podcast with these teachers!!!❤🎉

This is so awesome to hear and learn about , thanks for sharing your point of view. Kids need to be seen and loved while going to school and supported while learning you guys are awesome teachers.

Thanks for doing this episode. I loved it. With that being said, I am a black teacher and unfortunately I couldn't relate to almost anything they were saying. This video exposed me to a different perspective, but I want everyone to know this is not the only black experience

I appreciate you guys coming the podcast and showing support for the black community and seeing how your experience in this field. I was understanding of info about black teacher being few especially when I was growing up because i had my first black in highschool, who's the dispensary and head IEP teacher while being the coach. I that relationship was amazing to have. But as black pride men the statement about it giving that was made by shievy could have be world better. For example, i have seen a majority of women use this wording to describe each other. Instead of excluding young black men from that word. The reason behind me saying is because grown i was told you should not do this as black men or wear this, which my made me disconnect from black community.

This panel is so dope and I loved this conversation.

I truly love how they did this. I want crying, not because I am over emotional.. but because everything they said is so true.

As a parent that saw the effects of being fully involved in pre-education of my oldest child and how as I had more children that occurred less and less. I felt so guilty when I realized that my shortness of time, coupled with tiredness and some laziness when it came to my youngest I see how each on started off in Kindergarten and how that has impacted their success not only in Kindergarten but onward. It’s real that we as parents need to be very present for children throughout their school. As a result I had to advocate so hard for my youngest child in school and fight for what my baby needed to succeed all the way to removing that child from that school. Also children really do know when they have a teacher that does not like them. That is deep impact because they literally spend more time (waking hours) with our children that we do each school year.

As a new black educator thank you so much for this episode 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Omg I love Ms. M and the whole panel! Please have her back on soon! I enjoy hearing her perspective.

The only 2 black teachers I had in Idaho were substitutes, Mrs. Hawthorne and Mr. McFadden, they were absolutely amazing!

I am a 65 year old woman who grew up in a small beach town in NJ that was majority white but was always Title One. I hated using lunch tickets. I ate more Mac and cheese than I could stomach. Now the same small town is still Title One but the demographics has greatly changed. I went to work in the high school and I could identify with those kids, regardless of their color or ethnicity.

I was just watching the press conference about Bryce Brooks drowning from saving kids. I stumbled across this channel after watching "student/teacher fights". This is the third video I've watched today and I recognize Mr. Brooks from the press conference he did with his wife. Wow

I want to share this with everyone I know! This was so real and coming from a place of truth!

I attended a relatively diverse public school district 5th-12th grade (Black, Latino, Asian students totaled >60% of the student population). I had TWO black, male, teachers in those years: Mr. P in 5th grade and Mr. T. for Middle School P.E. I had one black female teacher, Mrs. J., in 7th grade. The lacking representation is duly (and sadly) noted. The inability to see from other perspectives is what is most damaging to us now.

Really enjoyed this panel!! 👏🏻

30:53 my first black teacher was my fifth grade teacher and I will never forget him

Awesomeness ♥

SCHOOLS MUST HAVE ALL TYPES OF TEACHERS. I JUST HAD A BLACK PRINCIPALS WHO NOT NOT LIKE MALE CUBAN TEACHERS, SO THEY DON'T WANT THEM IN THE SCHOOL.

The first teacher should be the parents. Teach your children what you know. Then go to the internet and learn what you don't know, so you can teach your children.

I've missed real content this season...the group is great, but thus had me going as I listened in the way home..Thank you for your conversation and the sped teacher shoutouts.

I’m white I grew up saying all of those words. I mean absolutely no disrespect by it.

💛💛💛

Excellent conversations! The part about building relationships with your students who are in trouble instead of just passing those students off to others is valuable advice for teachers.
