What skills will students to be prepared for an increasingly complex future? As technology continues to shape our society and our structures of communication, how should education respond? And can places of privilege foster equity and inclusivity within and beyond their communities? My name is Tristan Friedberg Rodman. This is Learned.



On Learned, we’re looking beyond test scores and college acceptance rates to understand how education can shape the future of our society — and what kind of teaching we need to bring us there.



Our guest today is Mickey Morgan. Mickey has been teaching at Oakwood for 36 years, and has spearheaded two of its most enduring student organizations — Glove Affair and the Chiapas Project. He was my teacher in 10th grade for European History and again in 12th grade for AP Human Geography. We spoke at Oakwood about the durational work of teaching social justice and social change.
