Grateful to the elders who shared their stories, lessons, wisdom, and love with us today.

If you've ever wondered how to take an Ethnic Studies approach to teaching in elementary schools, this is a great episode for you!

We appreciated reading a few chapters from Johanna Fernandez's book about The Young Lords in our political education study group this spring.

Much gratitude to the poets, artists, youth, educators, parents, and community members who joined us to teach and learn about Ethnic Studies! And a big huge thank you to the amazing staff at Academia Cesar Chavez for making us all feel so welcome in their beautiful school ❤️❤️❤️

You can find a link to the episode (and the earlier ones) on the CLES website, along with additional resources. ethnicstudies-coalition.org/podcast/
