In this riveting episode of Busted Pencils, hosts Dr. Tim Slecker and Dr. Johnny Lupinacci sit down with the esteemed Dr. Kevin Kumashiro, interim dean of the School of Education at Hofstra University, to explore the complex landscape of education in the face of recent legislative changes. Through a deep dive into the implications of Wisconsin's groundbreaking mandate to include Asian American and Hmong American history in K-12 curriculums, Dr. Kumashiro sheds light on the power of education to both challenge and conform to societal norms. Listeners will be inspired by discussions on the potential of education to imagine a world as it ought to be, rather than simply preparing students to succeed in the world as it is. This episode is a must-listen for educators, policymakers, and anyone passionate about the future of education in a time of ideological and political struggle.
