Tools for Anti-Racist Pedagogy

The goal of anti-racism is to proactively address and challenge actions, behaviors, and ideas that contribute to the perpetuation of racial inequities. During this session, we will explore different tools for practicing anti-racist pedagogy in the classroom. This session will provide participants with the opportunity to build skills around anti-racist teaching and develop their own personal understanding of what it means to be an anti-racist educator.

Learning Goals:

1. Identifying racist actions and behaviours in the classroom

3. Reflecting on personal teaching practices
