• February 2018
The very people who dedicate their lives to educating our children can become the reason why our students are unable to fulfill their fullest potential. Based on her extensive experience working with hundreds of low-income students and students of color, Tatiana Poladko sounds the alarm about how educators can stand in the way of students’ opportunity. She calls upon educators to reflect carefully on their egos, motives, and privilege everyday to make sure that they are the incredible interruptions in their students’ lives.
