Join teachers from all over Central Ohio every other week to read Jarvis R. Givens' Fugitive Pedagogy in anticipation of our conversation with him in September. This network will meet June 28, July 12, July 26, and August 9 (all meetings will be from 10-11a) to discuss the different sections of the book and its application to our classrooms in the coming year. The focus of the book is Carter G. Woodson, the founder of Black History Week (that eventually became Black History Month) and is an outgrowth of our network focusing on Gholdy Muhammad's Cultivating Genius.

Can we talk about school?
In the wake of aggressive pushback to discussions of race and privilege in the classroom, NExT Hub is hosting conversations for educators across the central Ohio area for support and solace. These conversations will be a place of interrogation, collaboration, and support for teachers impacted by the anti-CRT movement. In addition to and connection with this backlash to social justice in schools, everything has changed. School is different. The job is different. Students are different. And we're not talking about it. It's all about survival and getting back to status quo. This is a place to unpack our experiences teaching in a pandemic and to acknowledge our collective trauma as educators working to take care of kids.
These conversations will be on the first Wednesday of each month from 7:30-8:30p. Make what conversations you can, these will be consistently running throughout the school year. All meetings will be on Zoom. The link will be sent to you after you register for the conversation.

Investigate Your District
“Investigate Your District” is a collective effort between Columbus and the suburban districts of Central Ohio to collect and make visible the history of education in the region. Participants can range from district employees like teachers to board of education members or citizens that live in the district ranging from parents to stakeholders to students. This collective effort should enhance ongoing efforts that exist in communities and districts to tell an honest history of place and people as well as provide a region-wide effort to make our history transparent and accessible. Our stories will range from the creation of the district, to the win-win agreement, to our current stories of pandemic schooling. Participants will be provided with training in oral history methods, Emergent Strategy, and will have access to resource materials through Otterbein’s Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation Center and Erase the Space.
