Have a question for the show? Text us here! (https://www.buzzsprout.com/1740458/fa...) As empowered educators, we understand our students need a classroom culture where they can express themselves, honor others, and celebrate differences. But how do you create a safe space for diversity in the classroom? Welcome to episode 32 of Take Notes with Jen Rafferty podcast! Today, I’m joined by Dr. Nia Nunn who is a teacher, scholar, and diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI) consultant for schools, universities, and organizations. In this episode, Dr. Nia talks about radical vulnerability and how it can transform the dynamics of the community. She also shares that by tapping into creative spaces that are freeing and allow us to express ourselves creatively, we can be role models for our students. Today is all about learning, unlearning and unpacking our differences to make a difference! Stay empowered, Jen    Let’s keep the conversation going!
