Manage episode 368166109 series 2895475
In this episode, we spoke with Paul Gorski who is the founder of the Equity Literacy Institute, U.S.
PAST (00:01:47): Paul shares how during college years he developed an interest in social justice while being aware of his own privileged identities in academia. Later, when Paul was a professor, he also became interested in activist burnout, meaning the stress-related symptoms and illnesses that may occur among activists who tend to work in highly stressful and unpredictable environments.
PRESENT (00:13:34): Paul discusses an award lecture by Gloria Ladson-Billings (2009) on teacher education and how novice teachers have been using the word “culture” as an explanation for student behavior they cannot explain. Furthermore, Paul explains the concept of equity literacy, encourages the listeners to rethink the role of “culture” in teacher education with the goal of making teacher education more transformative and powerful.
FUTURE (00:37:00): In this final section, Paul dives deeper into burnout among social justice activists (activist burnout), the link between activism and depression, and the healing potential of talking openly about mental health struggles.
