 Ep 10 - Why My Choice Matters: Taking Back the Playground | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:44:57

We're back! We try to address a basic question - why does one person's choice matter? What impact does your choice have for your kid, for your school, and for the system.

 Ep 9 - The Only One (Part 2): SMOG | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:42:35

Part 2 looks at the experience of being the "Only One" from the perspective of adults who were "Only Ones" - one white, and one black. We discuss how race makes that experience different, and how that experience is ever present, even in adulthood.

 Ep 8 - The Only One (Part 1): SMOG | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:42:09

The fear of your kid being the "only one" often pushes white families away from global majority schools. We'll talk about it in two parts - parents of kids who are the only one, and adults who were the only one. In Part 1, we're joined by Lauren from Pennsylvania. Look for Part 2 next week.
