Will Education Be Liberatory by 2040?

Description:

If we fail to address the systems of oppression that underlie education, it will not be equitable by 2040. Come explore four possible futures related to this goal. Examine what it could look like for education liberation commons to help each student reach their potential, for care-based ecosystems to support people, for schools to double down on academics, and for micro-structures to provide alternatives to fractured public systems. Consider how you might help make education liberatory.
