#27: Nora Flanagan

In September, Nora Flanagan will begin her 23rd year as an educator in Chicago amid the challenging pedagogical circumstances of the covid-19 pandemic and the immense struggle Chicago Public School teachers have faced getting the support and resources they need from the community. 
Nora (@noraflanagan) is co-author of Confronting White Nationalism in School—A Toolkit (westernstatescenter.org/schools). She teachers English at Northside College Prep, a selective enrollment public high school in Chicago’s North Park neighborhood. Nora also serves as a delegate to the Chicago Teacher’s Union.
