"Have some compassion for yourself...do what you enjoy...do what you have to do, but make some time to do what you enjoy..." — Dr. Kanesha L. Moore For the first time on the show, we have an educator and a scholar who isn’t in the K-12 “hamster wheel.” Dr. Kanesha L. Moore, from Memphis, Tennessee, is a psychologist at a large public university in Texas. The Spelman College alumna has been teaching since 2012.

America to Me is a Starz docu-series. There are approximately 10 episodes that highlight Oak Park and River Forest High School in Oak Park, Illinois, a suburb outside of Chicago. This episode is the final installment of the series. On episode 10, "America Will Be” of the America to Me series, I only focus on two issues: the importance of effective school leadership and why educators should only focus on what we can control. I've enjoyed watching and analyzing this documentary and look forward to future work from these filmmakers. I'll keep an attentive eye on the progress of Oak Park and River Forest High School and that community. After all, I am a product of the Midwest.   ————————————————— Join the show by leaving a voicemail message about the podcast or any of the content discussed on the podcast.

America to Me is a Starz docu-series. There are approximately 10 episodes that highlight Oak Park and River Forest High School in Oak Park, Illinois, a suburb outside of Chicago. This episode is the ninth installment of the series. On episode 9, "The Invisible T-Shirt” of the America to Me series, I relate my experience attending small colleges in predominately-White towns to Kendale's college visit. I also analyze Tiara's academic struggles and a potential solution. Terrence goes to court with his mother regarding guardianship, and Ms. Stovall's Woven program is met with resistance from administration, again. Lastly, I discuss the question, "Why aren't there more Black and Brown educators?" It's not an easy answer.   The next series will focus on my book, Becoming an Effective Black Educator, available via paperback or e-Book. I'm excited to discuss this content in details as it directly relates to our current conundrums in education and within our own careers. I want everyone to be successful, and I plan on giving away a few copies during this series. ————————————————— Join the show by leaving a voicemail message about the podcast or any of the content discussed on the podcast.

This episode is the eighth installment of the series. On episode 8, "Nobody Can Hold You Down” of the America to Me series, I share effective strategies to combat against student's anxiety particularly test anxiety, which is currently impacting Caroline. I also discuss Mr. Clark, one of the few Black male educators at Oak Park River Forest High School.

Continuing the How the Pandemic Impacts K-12 Education series, I am joined by the lovely Stacey Malone, a 5th Grade Science and Social Studies teacher who may be transitioning to teach and coach at the high school level next school year. Stacey is also a basketball coach (San Antonio, Texas), and has been teaching for three years. Additionally, she's available for hire as a sport specific skills trainer and coach. On this episode, we discuss why we both left education early in our teaching careers. Other topics of our conversation included the difference between teaching middle school versus teaching high school, how Stacey has been emotionally affected by school closures, distance learning, my hatred of Zoom, educational policy, continuous school improvement, and much more. This conversation is over a hour, so grab a cup of coffee and enjoy. ————————————————— Shop Black Scholars Clothing™ with promo code SCHOLARS for 20 percent off.
