Episode 30 In Conversation with Dr. Aaminah Norris' cousin Husain Goode

Raina León

In the spring of 2020, a team of educators at Saint Mary’s College of California in the Teacher Educator Program got together to meet the challenge of transitioning to online teaching head on. Together, Drs. Mary Raygoza,  Raina León, and Aaminah Norris collaborated on an open document, titled "Humanizing Online Teaching," inspired by one of the classes in their program. They shared it widely, and within a few days, several hundred educators across the country viewed the document. "Humanizing Online Education" emphasizes the following categories: Building and Maintaining Beloved Community; Be Prepared; Fostering Equitable Participation; Group Work and Group Roles; Sharing Out; Other Helpful Zoom Functions; Be Flexible, Be Patient, and Be You; and Some Notes on Asynchronous Teaching. We first interviewed Mary, Raina, and Aaminah in April, but due to an unexpected technological error, we lost their file. We were crushed. The conversation in April was robust and complex, full of raw emotions like hope, fear, and gratitude. We decided to take a risk and sheepishly reach out to these three brilliant teachers to ask for a do-over. We were thrilled when they agreed! Our second conversation was just as fulfilling as the first. In it, we talk about how each of them is coping with the realities of teaching in the COVID19 Era. We dive deep into our emotions about George Floyd's assassination and the aftermath, the calls we all faced to make contributions in this unique historical moment, and how we think our students are affected by the realities of 2020.

1.48 Racism is Pandemic As Well (with Drs. Mary Raygoza,  Raina León, and Aaminah Norris)

Aaminah Norris is an assistant professor at Sacramento State in the College of Education. She has more than 20 years of experience supporting schools and nonprofit organizations in addressing issues of educational equity for low-income students from historically marginalized communities. She researches, teaches and advocates for the use of digital and social media in formal and informal learning environments to address racial and gender inequities.Norris sat down with Abigail De Kosnik, an associate professor in the Berkeley Center for New Media and the Department of Theater, Dance and Performance Studies, in April 2019 to discuss transmedia storytelling, police brutality against women and girls of color and the essay she co-authored, #Sandra Bland's Mystery: A Transmedia Story of Police Brutality."“A lot of the work that I do is helping people to understand that they have a responsibility to disrupt media messages and not just consume,” Norris tells De Kosnik. “You can't just be thoughtless consumers of these things that reinforce bias against a group. And if you are doing that, then you can potentially be causing harm and putting people in danger.”This conversation was featured in De Kosnik’s online course Performance, Television, and Social Media. It was designed and produced in collaboration with Digital Learning Services.Read the transcript on Berkeley News. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
