Centered around one of the most divisive words in the English language, this talk highlights the way in which the N-word presents itself, and is presented, in the classroom. With her personal experiences as a foundation, Elizabeth Stordeur Pryor discusses how we are able to reshape education around the N-word by using our own points of encounter to frame the conversation, and facilitate productive discussion.
