Ep. 2 Silence is Violence: Unpacking Black Trauma in the Classroom, Teaching while Black, Music as Therapy + More

Caitlyn Season 2 Episode 2

This episode is a continuation of last week’s episode on deconstructing #DefundthePolice and the importance of arts in education. 
In this episode I spoke with Eric Williamson, a music teacher at the same NYC public school as last week’s guest, Ava. In our conversation, Eric and I were able to connect as black educators to discuss the importance of using our identities to teach in the classroom. We talked about using music to unpack trauma, especially with our young student, music as therapy & so much more.
