Trauma Informed Pedagogy Workshop

We are going to share a workshop that we did at our school for our faculty and staff. We hold monthly workshops on important intersectionality ideas where we discuss, share, and reflect upon our teaching practices with our colleagues. 

Two weeks ago, we held a workshop where we explored trauma, how to create a classroom that can support trauma informed pedagogy, and how to hone our students' creative power in the face of structural inequities. We used the text Scenes of Subjection by Saidiya Hartman to think about "white gaze" and the glorification of black violence by white audiences.

Questions to consider as you listen to the podcast: What does it mean to have community in a classroom? How might community look different from one classroom to the next? What does it mean to have community in a school? How do you create community in your classroom?
