Episode Notes

Part 2: “A Long Way from Where We Need to Be” 

Episode Description: 

• Only 12% of higher school graduating seniors are considered “proficient” in civics and political science
• Pluralism is not synchronism, and our educational systems need to lean into uncomfortable conversations
• Our work must turn to building knowledge around cultures and experiences of individuals
• Viewpoint neutrality versus viewpoint diversity is a critical aspect of what education must self-interrogate
