Building Critical Consciousness for Educational Equity | Nicole West-Burns, Ph.D. | TEDxOshawaED

On a critical exploration of marginalization, Nicole leads us through what social change in schools would lead to in a truly equitable education system. She helps us understand what it would feel like, and challenges us to think about a continual progress of learning and growth. Dr. Nicole West-Burns works as a consultant on educational equity issues. Since 2008, she has worked with educators in Ontario to support/guide professional learning promoting equitable educational outcomes in schools for students, using Culturally Relevant & Responsive Pedagogy (CRRP). She is a leader on equity initiatives in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, and is currently a facilitator with the Education Equity Secretariat’s Office, developing and leading provincial work tied to deepening understandings and practices of CRRP. Dr. West-Burns taught on the faculty in the Master of Teaching program at Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE)/ University of Toronto (UofT). She worked as the Director of School Services (Urban Schooling) at OISE. She served as a lead writer on the "Equity Continuum: Action for Critical Transformation in Schools and Classrooms", which sold thousands of copies and is on the required reading list for the Ontario Principals’ Council. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    Oh, you mean James Lindsay, the reputable author, mathematician and published conspiracy theorist who has submitted hoax articles to academic journals, called on the government to censor those who oppose his views, and even got kicked off of Twitter as it exercised its right of free association (not to mention nobody is guaranteed the right to social media - you sign a contract when you make an account and can be banned whenever they please)? hm.

    I am thankful to you as I take a look into how to bring and understanding of the need for equity to the mental health (and physical health) treatments for people of African decent. There seems to be a shortage of culturally competent practitioners in mental health agencies that with a 98% African American client population. Also the need for a focus on cultural/racial identity as a strengthening tool and how lack of an identity contributes to poor mental health. Again, Thank you.

    8:06 "Math came from Africa"... this statement seems ahistorical. Mathematical concepts that influenced the Greeks and later European mathematicians have precedent in Sumerian, Babylonian, and Akkadian empires. I agree with the bulk of what the Dr. says, but I don't think she needs to invent facts to make her point.

    seems like the same points others used to encourage their marxist beliefs, it's seemingly the same talking points, guilt-tripping, and victim mentality. Also calling trans "women" women, instead of men (as they truthfully are), can also point out the kind of ideologies being encouraged. They seem to be connected.

    It’s being taught in my kids middle school this year. I think it’s a good thing. I think it’s helpful to see others through a critical conscienceness lense. Many in today’s society don’t really know how to grasp that there are other consciences outside of their own. People are waking up to this and teaching children how to embrace it.

    She's a little too angry. I mean I get that this is a topic to be angry about, but when you are doing a talk to get people thinking being angry and yelling at people doesn't help at all. This seems more like just a session to complain and not really something that helps us. She's just all over the place trying to get to too many topics and not giving time to think or any really concrete solutions. I had a prof like this for my masters, he had such good things to say but was so angry and condescending it was just too hard to take anything in.

    ...she was not angry or yelling at ALL lol. Speaking loudly because you have a microphone to your mouth and having inflection so you don't sound like a robot does not make you "angry" or "yelling". She shows frustration (valid). Maybe you need to examine your biases.
