Join Black educators and Exchange magazine authors Mike Browne (he/him) and Amir Gilmore (he/him) in an authentic, open conversation about centering the culture, stories, and traditions of the children and families in your early learning program.
 Mike Browne |
 Amir Gilmore, PhD. |
Using the Black Arts Movement as a framework, let's dream about ways the arts stimulate, nurture, and sustain children's - especially Black children's - self-explorations, joys, curiosities, creativities, well-being, and love of learning.
Hosted by Editor-in-Chief Sara Gilliam and Kirsten Haugen of Exchange Press, this lively dialogue will explore the relationships between the arts, joy, power, and our work with children.
 Sara Gilliam Editor-in-Chief of Exchange magazine |
 Kirsten Haugen Director of Communication and Collaboration |
When: Tuesday, September 13th at 7:00-8:30 pm Eastern
Includes: The Exchange magazine article, "A Reflection on Black Boys Dreaming" by Mike Browne and Amir Gilmore. (PDF)
