.#KishaMcPherson calling on racist teachers to teach antiracist, multicultural, anti-bias is an oxymoron >> need to properly train teachers and school boards to move forward #HASTAC2019
.#KishaMcPherson policies and approaches of Canada school boards do not take account of #Black girls' experience in the school system; must derive policy from their experience to support the growth of their self-image and empowerment #HASTAC2019
.#KishaMcPherson finding that teachers coddle non-Black students and do not try to get to know you, ignore if not destroy black femininity, no recognition of black women's bodies >> Black girls feel the stigma they face oft is driven by social media stereotypes #HASTAC2019
.#KishaMcPherson looking at issues of racism/discrimination in education in Toronto since 1987 >> what are contemp challenges Black girls face in schools? actual experience? And this data / research is missing in the Canadian context bc so much driven by US-framework #HASTAC2019
Now #KishaMcPherson on "Disrupting Traditional Pedagogies: Advancing #BlackFeminist Practices in the Education of #BlackGirls" #HASTAC2019
