Friends, we have an awesome pod for you today! Mike and Glen discuss whether the new paid Twitter is worth the cost, how states are moving to limit how teachers can discuss race in their classrooms, and our guest this week is educator and co-founder of Together for Justice, Keturah Proctor.

Guest: Keturah Proctor

Our guest is a 6th grade Math and English Language Arts in the Elmsford Union Free School District. She’s a former graduate and current resident of the school district in which she teaches. This unique perspective has afforded her the opportunity to forge authentic relationships with the students, parents and community members she serves. She is the co-founder of the Community Action Alliance (CAA) which is an organization dedicated to serving students in the Elmsford Union Free School District whose families were directly impacted by Covid-19.  She also is a co-founder of Together for Justice. This group harnesses the power of community members to speak out against instances of social injustice, bias and racism.
