Interview on the Outside the Loop show on WGN Radio
I was interviewed by the Outside the Loop show on WGN radio about the blog I wrote Lessons I Learned in Englewood.
I got to talk about some of my favorite things; teaching, race, and the brilliance of Englewood students. I am the first interview of the show.
Radio Interview about Educational Funding on Outside the Loop Radio
Last week I wrote a piece in support of the idea proposed by Karen Lewis to place a small tax on the Mercantile Exchange to generate revenue for schools (since the Merc gets millions in tax breaks).
I was interviewed on Outside the Loop Radio this week about school funding and how the lack of funding impacts schools in Chicago, but specifically my school in Englewood.
The interview is about the first twelve minutes of the show.
Outside the Loop Radio Interview
I’m interviewed on Outside the Loop radio about the TEAM Englewood Spoken Word group piece from Louder Than A Bomb 2014 in which our poets wrote the piece “Hide Your Schools, Hide Your Children, Hide Your Homes, Cause He’s Wrecking it All“. This is a poem written entirely by four Englewood public high school students about all Rahm Emanuel is doing to harm this city.
The interview is from 12:00-22:00
