1
00:00:02,780 --> 00:00:12,190
Man, Any big way.

2
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,810
And just like the river

3
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,420
and then run it
in a race sand.

4
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:49,409
He's, that has been known.

5
00:00:50,650 --> 00:00:54,540
But much change has gone.

6
00:01:04,510 --> 00:01:12,120
These fancy banana.

7
00:01:34,900 --> 00:01:38,819
But I just got,

8
00:01:49,660 --> 00:01:55,949
I went. I went.

9
00:02:18,220 --> 00:02:20,340
And

10
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:38,870
then I thought,

11
00:02:38,870 --> 00:02:41,009
well now

12
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,180
what

13
00:02:52,750 --> 00:02:55,290
that has been.

14
00:03:48,550 --> 00:03:50,670
Right.

15
00:04:07,540 --> 00:04:11,134
Thank you everyone
for coming today.

16
00:04:11,134 --> 00:04:13,070
My name is Jamie would,

17
00:04:13,070 --> 00:04:14,659
and this is the
breaking barriers

18
00:04:14,659 --> 00:04:16,520
in Higher Education
conference.

19
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,369
And I'm very excited to

20
00:04:19,369 --> 00:04:21,709
shared today and
our activities

21
00:04:21,709 --> 00:04:23,270
with you next week.

22
00:04:23,270 --> 00:04:26,959
And today's event will

23
00:04:26,959 --> 00:04:28,309
begin with

24
00:04:28,309 --> 00:04:30,319
some announcements
and then a speaker.

25
00:04:30,319 --> 00:04:33,890
So our personnel
announcements are that you

26
00:04:33,890 --> 00:04:35,779
can engage during
the conference

27
00:04:35,779 --> 00:04:37,849
by using our two hashtags,

28
00:04:37,849 --> 00:04:42,155
breaking barriers
PDX and see ICT PDX.

29
00:04:42,155 --> 00:04:44,495
Also. If your
speakers aren't up,

30
00:04:44,495 --> 00:04:45,799
go ahead and make sure

31
00:04:45,799 --> 00:04:47,674
that your sound
is adjusted.

32
00:04:47,674 --> 00:04:49,579
We are getting the
chat worked out.

33
00:04:49,579 --> 00:04:51,620
A couple people
noticed that

34
00:04:51,620 --> 00:04:55,505
the chat was disabled,
but it's open now.

35
00:04:55,505 --> 00:04:57,469
So that should
be working for

36
00:04:57,469 --> 00:04:59,300
you. Go ahead
and try it out.

37
00:04:59,300 --> 00:05:00,830
And you can submit

38
00:05:00,830 --> 00:05:02,735
questions for our speakers.

39
00:05:02,735 --> 00:05:05,045
In the Q and a.

40
00:05:05,045 --> 00:05:09,394
During this, while
that speaker is up,

41
00:05:09,394 --> 00:05:12,379
and during the last
15 to 20 minutes,

42
00:05:12,379 --> 00:05:15,300
we will engage in
your question.

43
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,885
So excuse me.

44
00:05:20,885 --> 00:05:22,550
Some of us are here
and won't NOMA

45
00:05:22,550 --> 00:05:25,010
county in the
Portland, Oregon area.

46
00:05:25,010 --> 00:05:26,479
And some of us are not.

47
00:05:26,479 --> 00:05:28,459
Some of us maybe are in

48
00:05:28,459 --> 00:05:30,739
caucus County
or in Seattle,

49
00:05:30,739 --> 00:05:32,750
or I know some
people are not

50
00:05:32,750 --> 00:05:34,535
even on the West Coast

51
00:05:34,535 --> 00:05:35,929
and joining us here today.

52
00:05:35,929 --> 00:05:39,859
So I want to acknowledge

53
00:05:39,859 --> 00:05:42,380
that the statement
I'm about to

54
00:05:42,380 --> 00:05:44,150
read may not specifically

55
00:05:44,150 --> 00:05:46,189
applied to the land
that you're sitting on.

56
00:05:46,189 --> 00:05:47,660
I also want to acknowledge

57
00:05:47,660 --> 00:05:49,025
that some of us have heard

58
00:05:49,025 --> 00:05:50,810
this particular land
acknowledgement or

59
00:05:50,810 --> 00:05:53,555
something like it
many, many times.

60
00:05:53,555 --> 00:05:56,750
But I want for us
to try to hear it.

61
00:05:56,750 --> 00:05:59,420
If we are hearing it
for the first time with

62
00:05:59,420 --> 00:06:02,210
the gravity and
importance that it

63
00:06:02,210 --> 00:06:05,075
holds as if we're

64
00:06:05,075 --> 00:06:06,200
just discovering

65
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,254
this knowledge for
the first time.

66
00:06:08,254 --> 00:06:09,949
So let's hear
this as if it's

67
00:06:09,949 --> 00:06:12,424
a meditation.
While I'm reading.

68
00:06:12,424 --> 00:06:16,249
Atlantic algebra at
Portland State University

69
00:06:16,249 --> 00:06:18,529
is located in the heart
of downtown Portland,

70
00:06:18,529 --> 00:06:20,960
Oregon and mult
NOMA county.

71
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,254
We honor the
indigenous people

72
00:06:23,254 --> 00:06:25,520
whose traditional and
ancestral homelands.

73
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,009
We stand on the Noma,

74
00:06:28,009 --> 00:06:30,305
cath limit. Clack moments.

75
00:06:30,305 --> 00:06:31,385
Tom water,

76
00:06:31,385 --> 00:06:33,394
what la-la bands
at the should not.

77
00:06:33,394 --> 00:06:35,870
The toilet and
colloquia and

78
00:06:35,870 --> 00:06:37,700
many other
Indigenous nations

79
00:06:37,700 --> 00:06:39,105
of the Columbia River.

80
00:06:39,105 --> 00:06:40,960
It is important
to acknowledge

81
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,150
the ancestors of
this place and

82
00:06:43,150 --> 00:06:45,010
to recognize that
we are here because

83
00:06:45,010 --> 00:06:47,304
of the sacrifices
forced upon them.

84
00:06:47,304 --> 00:06:49,659
And remembering
these communities.

85
00:06:49,659 --> 00:06:51,205
We honor their legacy,

86
00:06:51,205 --> 00:06:54,039
their lives, and
their descendants.

87
00:06:54,039 --> 00:06:58,549
I'd like to give just
a moment of silence.

88
00:06:58,860 --> 00:07:01,435
We have someone
from Canada here.

89
00:07:01,435 --> 00:07:03,740
Thanks for joining us.

90
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,129

126
00:08:37,460 --> 00:08:40,580
And I worked closely with

127
00:08:40,580 --> 00:08:42,019
Todd Rose and
still get the Dean

128
00:08:42,019 --> 00:08:43,954

129
00:08:43,954 --> 00:08:45,560
To begin the program.

130
00:08:45,560 --> 00:08:46,999
I'd like to end
by Todd to just

131
00:08:46,999 --> 00:08:48,319
say a few words about

132
00:08:48,319 --> 00:08:49,999
the program or full term or

133
00:08:49,999 --> 00:08:52,830
whatever you'd like to
get us started today.

134
00:08:54,970 --> 00:08:57,814
Hi, everyone. Hopefully
you can hear me.

135
00:08:57,814 --> 00:09:00,619
Good morning. So, uh,

136
00:09:00,619 --> 00:09:02,165
my mind tigers do I am

137
00:09:02,165 --> 00:09:03,919
the Dean of the College
of Arts and Sciences.

138
00:09:03,919 --> 00:09:05,630
And I just have to
start by saying what,

139
00:09:05,630 --> 00:09:07,010
what almost felt like

140
00:09:07,010 --> 00:09:09,770
an impossible time in
our city and region.

141
00:09:09,770 --> 00:09:12,319
It's remarkable that
the rain has returned.

142
00:09:12,319 --> 00:09:15,065
I hope you all as
thankful I am for that.

143
00:09:15,065 --> 00:09:16,520
And I feel like kicking
off the breaking

144
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,245
barriers series
with this breath of

145
00:09:18,245 --> 00:09:19,970
fresh air in our homes and

146
00:09:19,970 --> 00:09:21,320
communities is a
really great way

147
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,325
to begin the year.

148
00:09:22,325 --> 00:09:23,630
Now, three years ago,

149
00:09:23,630 --> 00:09:26,450
Jamie and I set out
to create the CIC t,

150
00:09:26,450 --> 00:09:27,889
which is going to
become something of

151
00:09:27,889 --> 00:09:29,675
a nationally
distinctive, free,

152
00:09:29,675 --> 00:09:32,794
high-impact non-profit
experience for,

153
00:09:32,794 --> 00:09:34,309
for graduate
students really

154
00:09:34,309 --> 00:09:35,749
to be immersed and get

155
00:09:35,749 --> 00:09:37,055
comfortable with

156
00:09:37,055 --> 00:09:38,869
research-based
best practices

157
00:09:38,869 --> 00:09:40,490
for teaching and learning.

158
00:09:40,490 --> 00:09:42,319
Our goal is
simple. We wanted

159
00:09:42,319 --> 00:09:43,670
to find a way
to rethink and

160
00:09:43,670 --> 00:09:45,319
reimagine the way we can

161
00:09:45,319 --> 00:09:47,419
contribute to training
future faculty,

162
00:09:47,419 --> 00:09:48,799
faculty, and teachers who

163
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:49,850
would be really future

164
00:09:49,850 --> 00:09:51,019
ready with

165
00:09:51,019 --> 00:09:52,745
respect to pedagogy
and approaches.

166
00:09:52,745 --> 00:09:54,785
And to be honest, to
also be really quick.

167
00:09:54,785 --> 00:09:56,120
To help us all break down

168
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:57,559
the barriers that sort

169
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,105
of limits students success.

170
00:09:59,105 --> 00:10:01,099
Since we began the
CIC D program,

171
00:10:01,099 --> 00:10:02,974
it's grown immensely beyond

172
00:10:02,974 --> 00:10:04,519
just where we
started with GPAs

173
00:10:04,519 --> 00:10:05,704
and graduate
students to include

174
00:10:05,704 --> 00:10:08,239
adjuncts and post-docs
and new faculty alike.

175
00:10:08,239 --> 00:10:09,289
And we just want
you to know you're

176
00:10:09,289 --> 00:10:10,519
all welcome and we're so

177
00:10:10,519 --> 00:10:11,690
happy to see
such a diversity

178
00:10:11,690 --> 00:10:13,444
of people
participating today.

179
00:10:13,444 --> 00:10:15,950
Universities like
ours at PSU,

180
00:10:15,950 --> 00:10:17,510
we often spend
a great deal of

181
00:10:17,510 --> 00:10:21,050
time emphasizing the
incredible ways that,

182
00:10:21,050 --> 00:10:22,249
that you all,
particularly in

183
00:10:22,249 --> 00:10:23,569
this audience,
helped to grow,

184
00:10:23,569 --> 00:10:24,680
to develop, and to

185
00:10:24,680 --> 00:10:26,405
nurture our
amazing students.

186
00:10:26,405 --> 00:10:27,919
But, you know, Janie and

187
00:10:27,919 --> 00:10:29,780
myself hope or hope is that

188
00:10:29,780 --> 00:10:31,279
the CIC program and events

189
00:10:31,279 --> 00:10:32,839
like breaking barriers and

190
00:10:32,839 --> 00:10:34,549
Randy's presentation
today is

191
00:10:34,549 --> 00:10:36,890
just one way we can
show up to help grow,

192
00:10:36,890 --> 00:10:39,604
develop, and nurture
some amazing faculty

193
00:10:39,604 --> 00:10:41,405
and teachers and
instructors at PSU.

194
00:10:41,405 --> 00:10:42,679
So thank you all for

195
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,270
taking time to be
here today and

196
00:10:44,270 --> 00:10:45,890
just taking a
little moment to

197
00:10:45,890 --> 00:10:47,090
invest in yourself and

198
00:10:47,090 --> 00:10:48,274
invest in your practice.

199
00:10:48,274 --> 00:10:49,130
I hope you see it as

200
00:10:49,130 --> 00:10:50,509
a personal investment cuz I

201
00:10:50,509 --> 00:10:52,220
guarantee it's
an investment in

202
00:10:52,220 --> 00:10:53,330
our students and the Dean

203
00:10:53,330 --> 00:10:54,695
of the College of
Arts and Sciences.

204
00:10:54,695 --> 00:10:55,850
I just want to say I

205
00:10:55,850 --> 00:10:58,470
appreciate it and thank
you for being here.

206
00:11:00,310 --> 00:11:03,269
Thank you so much, Todd.

207
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,360
So just a couple
of announcements.

208
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,009
One of you signed

209
00:11:10,009 --> 00:11:11,419
signed up via Eventbrite,

210
00:11:11,419 --> 00:11:13,250
and that means that you're

211
00:11:13,250 --> 00:11:15,320
going to have
access to all of

212
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,119
the events associated with

213
00:11:17,119 --> 00:11:18,200
the breaking barriers in

214
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:19,550

And next week, you're
going to start

00:11:26,105 --> 00:11:28,430
receiving daily
challenge emails.

219
00:11:28,430 --> 00:11:30,035
And they're
going to include

220
00:11:30,035 --> 00:11:31,820
teaching tips with videos

221
00:11:31,820 --> 00:11:33,559

access to all of
the resources that

229
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,034
your students might
need this fall term.

230
00:11:51,034 --> 00:11:53,240
Also, please save

00:11:56,689 --> 00:11:58,654

234
00:11:58,654 --> 00:12:00,469

September 26th.

236
00:12:02,705 --> 00:12:04,099
From ten she'll actually

00:12:04,099 --> 00:12:05,420
be here from ten to 1130.

238
00:12:05,420 --> 00:12:07,790
And then from 1130 to 1230,

239
00:12:07,790 --> 00:12:08,870
we're going to host

240
00:12:08,870 --> 00:12:11,030
a roundtable
discussion that'll

241
00:12:11,030 --> 00:12:15,154
be really engaging
and participatory,

242
00:12:15,154 --> 00:12:16,459
where we'll gets
all kind of talk

243
00:12:16,459 --> 00:12:18,065
about the way that we've

244
00:12:18,065 --> 00:12:19,309
challenged ourselves
and what we're

245
00:12:19,309 --> 00:12:21,020
doing to prepare
for fall term.

246
00:12:21,020 --> 00:12:23,430
So I'm really
excited for that.

247
00:12:25,060 --> 00:12:27,919
So I'd like to
take a moment

248
00:12:27,919 --> 00:12:30,649
to talk about Black
Lives Matter.

249
00:12:30,649 --> 00:12:33,859
And I want to thank
everyone for being here

250
00:12:33,859 --> 00:12:35,869
today because in the midst

251
00:12:35,869 --> 00:12:37,834
of all we're dealing
with in carrying,

252
00:12:37,834 --> 00:12:41,480
we're gathered here both
together and apart.

253
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,444
Because we want to
know how to break

254
00:12:43,444 --> 00:12:45,229
barriers and
higher education,

255
00:12:45,229 --> 00:12:47,149
how to show up
for our students,

256
00:12:47,149 --> 00:12:49,159
and how to build learning
experiences with

257
00:12:49,159 --> 00:12:51,980
students that honor
their lived experiences,

258
00:12:51,980 --> 00:12:54,230
their passions,
and their goals.

259
00:12:54,230 --> 00:12:56,944
If we're to live up
to these aspirations,

260
00:12:56,944 --> 00:12:58,429
it's time for white folks

261
00:12:58,429 --> 00:12:59,869
to get uncomfortable,

262
00:12:59,869 --> 00:13:01,789
to rise up and do more

263
00:13:01,789 --> 00:13:03,860
than hope and
pray for change.

264
00:13:03,860 --> 00:13:06,109
But rather to demand it.

265
00:13:06,109 --> 00:13:08,405
In demanding
that we change,

266
00:13:08,405 --> 00:13:10,699
I must acknowledge
my own privileges.

267
00:13:10,699 --> 00:13:15,230
I'm white, middle-class,
cisgender, educated.

268
00:13:15,230 --> 00:13:19,055
Able bodied neurotypical.
The list goes on.

269
00:13:19,055 --> 00:13:21,110
I am privileged in
my position here

270
00:13:21,110 --> 00:13:23,795
today to have the mike
in your attention.

271
00:13:23,795 --> 00:13:25,580
But I want to problematize

272
00:13:25,580 --> 00:13:27,454
this idea of privilege.

273
00:13:27,454 --> 00:13:29,150
I believe it is
no privilege

274
00:13:29,150 --> 00:13:30,380
to benefit from the pain

275
00:13:30,380 --> 00:13:31,744
and suffering that
my neighbors,

276
00:13:31,744 --> 00:13:33,365
peers and colleagues.

277
00:13:33,365 --> 00:13:34,939
It is no privileged to sit

278
00:13:34,939 --> 00:13:36,440
by and watch while black,

279
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,000
brown and indigenous folks

280
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,679
are blocked from
opportunity,

281
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,474
put down, left out,
erased in brutalized.

282
00:13:43,474 --> 00:13:45,424
While I and my
white neighbors,

283
00:13:45,424 --> 00:13:48,305
peers and colleagues
sit protected within

284
00:13:48,305 --> 00:13:49,520
the very systems that

285
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,605
strip others of
their humanity.

286
00:13:51,605 --> 00:13:54,470
We are all less human for

287
00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:55,610
allowing these historic

288
00:13:55,610 --> 00:13:57,660
inequities to persist.

289
00:13:57,660 --> 00:14:00,340
We're here today
to break barriers,

290
00:14:00,340 --> 00:14:02,875
not to maintain
the status quo.

291
00:14:02,875 --> 00:14:04,179
We're here to become

292
00:14:04,179 --> 00:14:06,055
The Better Angels
of Our Nature,

293
00:14:06,055 --> 00:14:08,410
to dismantle the
dysfunction we were born

294
00:14:08,410 --> 00:14:10,449
into and build a reality

295
00:14:10,449 --> 00:14:12,159
that is good for all of us,

296
00:14:12,159 --> 00:14:14,065
not just a lucky few.

297
00:14:14,065 --> 00:14:16,674
In order to imagine
any reality,

298
00:14:16,674 --> 00:14:19,629
we have to be willing
to challenge ourselves.

299
00:14:19,629 --> 00:14:21,519
That is what today,

300
00:14:21,519 --> 00:14:22,930
next week, the rest of

301
00:14:22,930 --> 00:14:24,954
the year and beyond
are all about.

302
00:14:24,954 --> 00:14:27,054
Together we can
move Matthews,

303
00:14:27,054 --> 00:14:29,680
re-imagine the path
forward and rebuild

304
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,709
an education system
without barriers.

305
00:14:32,709 --> 00:14:36,069
With that in mind, I'm
excited and honored to

306
00:14:36,069 --> 00:14:37,750
invite our first
special guest at

307
00:14:37,750 --> 00:14:40,639

Up to the mike.

Were crammed.
Ah, here it is.

Hi everyone.

Thank you so much
for having me.

338
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,625
The office of
academic innovation.

339
00:16:07,625 --> 00:16:11,420
This is an honor to be

340
00:16:11,420 --> 00:16:13,249
YAG is really short

341
00:16:13,249 --> 00:16:14,120
and everything
to the point,

342
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:15,335
I'm really goofy.

343
00:16:15,335 --> 00:16:17,239
So just know that

344
00:16:17,239 --> 00:16:18,409
I'm going to
just go through

345
00:16:18,409 --> 00:16:22,280
a little brief
synopsis of myself.

346
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,619
But hello again, my
name is Randy forward,

347
00:16:24,619 --> 00:16:27,545
IE she heard Goddess
as pronouns.

348
00:16:27,545 --> 00:16:29,885
I am boy, I'm from Seattle,

349
00:16:29,885 --> 00:16:31,250
one in Seattle, raised in

350
00:16:31,250 --> 00:16:32,689
the greater Seattle area.

351
00:16:32,689 --> 00:16:35,285
So South King
County like Auburn,

352
00:16:35,285 --> 00:16:37,550
Tacoma, even if
you're from here,

353
00:16:37,550 --> 00:16:39,829
if you're familiar
with the area.

354
00:16:39,829 --> 00:16:42,634
Some of my
accessibility needs,

355
00:16:42,634 --> 00:16:44,690
lamina, let John
knows that I might be

356
00:16:44,690 --> 00:16:47,164
fidgety because
I'm nervous.

357
00:16:47,164 --> 00:16:48,769
And I might stand up from

358
00:16:48,769 --> 00:16:50,239
time to time because I'm

359
00:16:50,239 --> 00:16:52,099
a dancer and I
started working

360
00:16:52,099 --> 00:16:54,195
out this week and my
muscles of source,

361
00:16:54,195 --> 00:16:56,420
I'll just be real physical.

362
00:16:56,420 --> 00:16:58,069
I promise no one's
going to dance

363
00:16:58,069 --> 00:16:59,405
during this time.

364
00:16:59,405 --> 00:17:02,135
I also have a fan with
me because I sweat,

365
00:17:02,135 --> 00:17:03,769
because of the nerves.

366
00:17:03,769 --> 00:17:05,839
I just hope that everyone
can take care of

367
00:17:05,839 --> 00:17:08,029
themselves in a fun fact

368
00:17:08,029 --> 00:17:11,059
about me is that
I've never been

369
00:17:11,059 --> 00:17:12,379
to Canada all my years

370
00:17:12,379 --> 00:17:14,869
of living in Washington.

371
00:17:14,869 --> 00:17:18,199
You know, maybe
it might take a

372
00:17:18,199 --> 00:17:19,550
little longer for me
to get there just due

373
00:17:19,550 --> 00:17:21,650
to everything going
on in the world.

374
00:17:21,650 --> 00:17:24,095
They Yeah, I'm
super excited

375
00:17:24,095 --> 00:17:27,109
to be here in a
little bit of

376
00:17:27,109 --> 00:17:30,140
a background so it
can give you kind of

377
00:17:30,140 --> 00:17:34,295
an idea of where this
presentation will go.

378
00:17:34,295 --> 00:17:36,500
These slides are
just here for

379
00:17:36,500 --> 00:17:41,209
my kind of why, what
does that word?

380
00:17:41,209 --> 00:17:44,465
My reference, and there's

381
00:17:44,465 --> 00:17:46,250
nothing on the slide
are too wordy.

382
00:17:46,250 --> 00:17:47,840
So it's gonna be a
lot of me speaking.

383
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,459
I will try my best
to slow down so

384
00:17:49,459 --> 00:17:51,559
that the interpreter
can catch everything.

385
00:17:51,559 --> 00:17:53,059
But if I'm
speaking too fast,

386
00:17:53,059 --> 00:17:56,689
simply let me know
and I'll try to

387
00:17:56,689 --> 00:17:58,759
do a lot of things at
once and make sure

388
00:17:58,759 --> 00:18:01,550
that doc understand me.

389
00:18:01,550 --> 00:18:03,395
But a little bit
of my experience,

390
00:18:03,395 --> 00:18:05,239
I'm a teaching artist

391
00:18:05,239 --> 00:18:06,935
in short, dance teacher,

392
00:18:06,935 --> 00:18:08,899
movement teacher
specializing in

393
00:18:08,899 --> 00:18:11,075
the performing
arts in general.

394
00:18:11,075 --> 00:18:13,700
I started teaching after

395
00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:14,900
I dropped out of college.

396
00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:15,740
Actually, it's also fun

397
00:18:15,740 --> 00:18:17,075
fact I dropped
out of college

398
00:18:17,075 --> 00:18:18,649
and still wanted to dance

399
00:18:18,649 --> 00:18:20,164
and still wanted to create.

400
00:18:20,164 --> 00:18:21,469
And I found that

401
00:18:21,469 --> 00:18:23,524
I fell in love
with teaching on

402
00:18:23,524 --> 00:18:26,720
accident by first
being introduced to

403
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,029
the Seattle Public
Schools sector

404
00:18:29,029 --> 00:18:32,044
and city of Seattle
recreation.

405
00:18:32,044 --> 00:18:35,944
I was a youth
recreation leader

406
00:18:35,944 --> 00:18:38,450
for a good chunk of
my early twenties.

407
00:18:38,450 --> 00:18:41,540
I wanna say maybe 19 to 22,

408
00:18:41,540 --> 00:18:44,030
volunteering for at

409
00:18:44,030 --> 00:18:46,535
risk black and brown youth

410
00:18:46,535 --> 00:18:48,949
in the greater
Seattle area.

411
00:18:48,949 --> 00:18:51,020
And from there, I

412
00:18:51,020 --> 00:18:53,765
went from teaching
there into

413
00:18:53,765 --> 00:18:55,459
early childhood
development because

414
00:18:55,459 --> 00:18:57,140
teenagers are a little bit

415
00:18:57,140 --> 00:18:58,924
much and he can

416
00:18:58,924 --> 00:19:00,904
drive you a little
mad sometimes.

417
00:19:00,904 --> 00:19:02,750
But I still love teaching.
And so I went into

418
00:19:02,750 --> 00:19:04,085
early childhood development

419
00:19:04,085 --> 00:19:05,420
knowing that I hate kids,

420
00:19:05,420 --> 00:19:06,529
but I fell in
love with them

421
00:19:06,529 --> 00:19:09,620
actually inside them
that for three years.

422
00:19:09,620 --> 00:19:11,269
And then from there
I moved on to

423
00:19:11,269 --> 00:19:14,435
teaching K through
12 adult classes,

424
00:19:14,435 --> 00:19:16,579
movement workshops for

425
00:19:16,579 --> 00:19:19,429
a collection of
seven years.

426
00:19:19,429 --> 00:19:21,694
So that's just kind
of like a little

427
00:19:21,694 --> 00:19:25,249
brief about kind
of said it.

428
00:19:25,249 --> 00:19:26,870
A lot of my work falls into

429
00:19:26,870 --> 00:19:28,639
anti oppression and night

430
00:19:28,639 --> 00:19:29,209
fell into

431
00:19:29,209 --> 00:19:30,724
antidepressant
through my collected,

432
00:19:30,724 --> 00:19:33,305
a collective weird
dance organization.

433
00:19:33,305 --> 00:19:35,989
We all went to the
University of Washington.

434
00:19:35,989 --> 00:19:37,190
I'm one of the youngest,

435
00:19:37,190 --> 00:19:38,179
but a lot of my friends who

436
00:19:38,179 --> 00:19:40,069
graduated are people of

437
00:19:40,069 --> 00:19:42,769
color, queer,
femme identified.

438
00:19:42,769 --> 00:19:45,049
And they went and

439
00:19:45,049 --> 00:19:46,970
audition for a bunch
of dance companies and

440
00:19:46,970 --> 00:19:49,369
didn't see themselves
reflected in none of

441
00:19:49,369 --> 00:19:50,930
the choreography
and none of

442
00:19:50,930 --> 00:19:53,885
the movement in
none of the,

443
00:19:53,885 --> 00:19:56,179
none of the
faculty in schools

444
00:19:56,179 --> 00:19:58,430
are studios that
they're performing at.

445
00:19:58,430 --> 00:19:59,839
And so we decided
to start our own

446
00:19:59,839 --> 00:20:02,389
collective that centers
people of color,

447
00:20:02,389 --> 00:20:04,880
trans people, queer
people, fans.

448
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,729
In the contemporary
dance world.

449
00:20:07,729 --> 00:20:10,069
I just want to really
preface that a lot of

450
00:20:10,069 --> 00:20:13,009
my angle isn't a
contemporary dance contexts,

451
00:20:13,009 --> 00:20:15,320
but I promise
that these tools

452
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,030
that I share with you

453
00:20:17,030 --> 00:20:19,009
are going to help you

454
00:20:19,009 --> 00:20:20,059
get a better understanding

455
00:20:20,059 --> 00:20:21,245
agenda inclusivity,

456
00:20:21,245 --> 00:20:23,509
and also diversity,
equity and

457
00:20:23,509 --> 00:20:24,889
inclusion with I
promise will be

458
00:20:24,889 --> 00:20:27,244
the last time I
say those words.

459
00:20:27,244 --> 00:20:29,255
Just so you know,
if they can get

460
00:20:29,255 --> 00:20:31,204
pretty drowned out,

461
00:20:31,204 --> 00:20:34,054
especially not WES,
I'm sure you all know.

462
00:20:34,054 --> 00:20:35,870
But just know
that I'm forever

463
00:20:35,870 --> 00:20:38,000
learning as I go further
into my practice,

464
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,259
just how you are and I'm

465
00:20:39,259 --> 00:20:40,580
super excited to share with

466
00:20:40,580 --> 00:20:44,239
you a peek into my
process as an educator.

467
00:20:44,239 --> 00:20:45,890
I'm just gonna go
to the chat, make

468
00:20:45,890 --> 00:20:48,574
sure tip my camera.

469
00:20:48,574 --> 00:20:50,959
Okay, well, we want
to see your head more

470
00:20:50,959 --> 00:20:53,660
like yeah, there you go.

471
00:20:53,660 --> 00:20:55,010
I think they're great.

472
00:20:55,010 --> 00:20:59,509
Go see MOD mama
multitasker. Thank you.

473
00:20:59,509 --> 00:21:02,840
So yes, I can't see
myself also by the way,

474
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,249
you also thank you.

475
00:21:04,249 --> 00:21:07,564
The next slide, if I can
get out there we go.

476
00:21:07,564 --> 00:21:11,495
So a big question
I get from

477
00:21:11,495 --> 00:21:13,219
a lot of people
when it comes to

478
00:21:13,219 --> 00:21:15,589
gender inclusivity,
gender identity,

479
00:21:15,589 --> 00:21:17,494
especially when it
comes to educating,

480
00:21:17,494 --> 00:21:19,490
is why do I need to spend

481
00:21:19,490 --> 00:21:20,660
so much time on

482
00:21:20,660 --> 00:21:22,669
this when it's out
of my pay grade,

483
00:21:22,669 --> 00:21:24,424
I'm not a master at it.

484
00:21:24,424 --> 00:21:26,179
I can barely keep
up with everyone's

485
00:21:26,179 --> 00:21:27,439
pronouns as it is,

486
00:21:27,439 --> 00:21:29,975
you know, and I mean,
and all that stuff.

487
00:21:29,975 --> 00:21:32,179
You know, I
teach, you know,

488
00:21:32,179 --> 00:21:34,880
or I'm teaching,
you know, math.

489
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,260
What does gender
have to deal with?

490
00:21:36,260 --> 00:21:37,969
A lot of people
like to bring

491
00:21:37,969 --> 00:21:40,324
that to the forefront
of the conversation.

492
00:21:40,324 --> 00:21:45,680
And I hope that as
educators who care about

493
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,200
ending gender-based
violence and who care

494
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,445
about all students

495
00:21:49,445 --> 00:21:51,380
succeeding throughout
your courses.

496
00:21:51,380 --> 00:21:53,029
You know that you

497
00:21:53,029 --> 00:21:54,229
will make it a
point to spend

498
00:21:54,229 --> 00:21:57,050
as much time on making
sure that your spaces,

499
00:21:57,050 --> 00:21:58,310
that you navigate
and create

500
00:21:58,310 --> 00:21:59,989
our as gender-inclusive,

501
00:21:59,989 --> 00:22:02,869
as inclusive as possible.

502
00:22:02,869 --> 00:22:04,609
And if you want to
develop your skills

503
00:22:04,609 --> 00:22:05,869
as an educator, again,

504
00:22:05,869 --> 00:22:08,360
because we're in 2020
and we need to start

505
00:22:08,360 --> 00:22:09,694
learning new ways of

506
00:22:09,694 --> 00:22:11,300
interacting relating
to one another.

507
00:22:11,300 --> 00:22:13,070
So Let's not pretend

508
00:22:13,070 --> 00:22:15,019
that queer and trans

509
00:22:15,019 --> 00:22:16,820
people haven't existed
this entire time.

510
00:22:16,820 --> 00:22:18,889
This is just the first
time that we are

511
00:22:18,889 --> 00:22:22,264
given the year,
the empathy.

512
00:22:22,264 --> 00:22:24,439
And so just know that

513
00:22:24,439 --> 00:22:26,299
you don't want to be
part of the problem,

514
00:22:26,299 --> 00:22:27,725
why we're still stuck.

515
00:22:27,725 --> 00:22:30,334
So just, yes, you
know, gender, sex.

516
00:22:30,334 --> 00:22:31,760
And a lot of
people think about

517
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,109
it a certain way.

518
00:22:33,109 --> 00:22:35,210
And this world, remember,

519
00:22:35,210 --> 00:22:36,350
is just made up
of more than

520
00:22:36,350 --> 00:22:38,614
just men and
just for women.

521
00:22:38,614 --> 00:22:39,949
You know, there
are a plethora of

522
00:22:39,949 --> 00:22:41,120
identities and
I'll get into

523
00:22:41,120 --> 00:22:45,800
that later. Yeah, next.

524
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:49,940
So I like to go
to mythology.

525
00:22:49,940 --> 00:22:53,209
I'm, I'm anthology, nerd,

526
00:22:53,209 --> 00:22:55,234
geek, I love. Oops,
let's go back.

527
00:22:55,234 --> 00:22:56,480
Yeah, minimum
anthology NOR,

528
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:57,499
and mythology to geek, I

529
00:22:57,499 --> 00:22:58,670
love Greek mythology.

530
00:22:58,670 --> 00:23:01,010
I was introduced to
it through Hercules,

531
00:23:01,010 --> 00:23:03,694
the Disney, maybe
from a lot of people.

532
00:23:03,694 --> 00:23:08,284
And as I got into
elementary school,

533
00:23:08,284 --> 00:23:11,285
you know, kinda got

534
00:23:11,285 --> 00:23:13,099
transferring into middle
school, you know,

535
00:23:13,099 --> 00:23:15,080
I learned about
mythology and learned

536
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,365
about not only Greek
mythology but Hindi,

537
00:23:18,365 --> 00:23:20,690
Hindi mythology
about, you know,

538
00:23:20,690 --> 00:23:22,064
and in college I
learned about,

539
00:23:22,064 --> 00:23:23,119
you know, the many

540
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,224
African mythologies
and reaches.

541
00:23:26,224 --> 00:23:31,514
And I notice that a
lot of, you know.

542
00:23:31,514 --> 00:23:33,610
My learnings about gender

543
00:23:33,610 --> 00:23:35,020
have come from mythology,

544
00:23:35,020 --> 00:23:36,594
have come from, you know,

545
00:23:36,594 --> 00:23:38,935
creatures we deem as BCE.

546
00:23:38,935 --> 00:23:40,510
Dima scary, deem as

547
00:23:40,510 --> 00:23:42,579
different, deem
as make-believe.

548
00:23:42,579 --> 00:23:44,064
I kind of, I don't know.

549
00:23:44,064 --> 00:23:45,309
I've always just correlated

550
00:23:45,309 --> 00:23:46,539
my gender identity.

551
00:23:46,539 --> 00:23:48,070
Greek myths, and
just thinking like,

552
00:23:48,070 --> 00:23:49,854
well, you know,

553
00:23:49,854 --> 00:23:51,280
Greek myths is
nothing but stories

554
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:52,375
being passed down,

555
00:23:52,375 --> 00:23:52,929
you know, and we

556
00:23:52,929 --> 00:23:54,310
know stories get
exaggerated.

557
00:23:54,310 --> 00:23:57,309
So I'm a believer that
all these BCE that we

558
00:23:57,309 --> 00:23:58,839
learn about in all
of these people with

559
00:23:58,839 --> 00:24:00,834
multiple arm follow
these, you know,

560
00:24:00,834 --> 00:24:02,680
people with multiple like

561
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,575
animal parts and
Acumen parts are just,

562
00:24:05,575 --> 00:24:07,989
you know, exaggerations of

563
00:24:07,989 --> 00:24:10,315
humans that we
once knew, right?

564
00:24:10,315 --> 00:24:11,709
And so if anyone's

565
00:24:11,709 --> 00:24:12,909
ever familiar
with the kind of

566
00:24:12,909 --> 00:24:15,154
narrow, in Greek myth,

567
00:24:15,154 --> 00:24:18,365
it is a fire-breathing
female monster,

568
00:24:18,365 --> 00:24:19,804
but the lion's head,

569
00:24:19,804 --> 00:24:23,149
a goats body, and
a serpent's tail.

570
00:24:23,149 --> 00:24:24,889
That actually this chat

571
00:24:24,889 --> 00:24:26,900
and make sure replicable.

572
00:24:26,900 --> 00:24:29,884
Okay, oops, I keep
doing this, my, that.

573
00:24:29,884 --> 00:24:33,995
Now. Ok. So it had
a lion's head,

574
00:24:33,995 --> 00:24:35,765
a goats body in a
serpent's tail.

575
00:24:35,765 --> 00:24:38,705
And, you know,
it's also another,

576
00:24:38,705 --> 00:24:40,730
another dictionary
definition is

577
00:24:40,730 --> 00:24:42,905
the thing that is
hoped or wished for,

578
00:24:42,905 --> 00:24:44,689
but in fact is a loosed,

579
00:24:44,689 --> 00:24:48,020
illusory or impossible
to achieve.

580
00:24:48,020 --> 00:24:50,585
We think that
chimaeras are so

581
00:24:50,585 --> 00:24:54,110
out of this world
that could never be,

582
00:24:54,110 --> 00:24:55,894
you know, a walking go,

583
00:24:55,894 --> 00:24:58,294
lion, snake thing, right?

584
00:24:58,294 --> 00:25:01,760
And so, and a lot
of philosophers,

585
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,039
scholars, scientists,
you know,

586
00:25:04,039 --> 00:25:06,469
they don't like
steady this to a t,

587
00:25:06,469 --> 00:25:07,699
but this was one of

588
00:25:07,699 --> 00:25:09,800
the first ways we
understood genetics.

589
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,845
We started seeing creatures

590
00:25:12,845 --> 00:25:14,645
or people, you
know, they have,

591
00:25:14,645 --> 00:25:17,779
you know, mixed, you know,

592
00:25:17,779 --> 00:25:20,389
what we deem as female
and male parts.

593
00:25:20,389 --> 00:25:20,930
You know, we see

594
00:25:20,930 --> 00:25:23,344
the word androgynous
thrown in.

595
00:25:23,344 --> 00:25:25,459
Hermaphrodite is, you know,

596
00:25:25,459 --> 00:25:26,840
in Greek myth is
described as being

597
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,254
partly now partly female,

598
00:25:29,254 --> 00:25:31,189
also being not
product that the

599
00:25:31,189 --> 00:25:34,564
goddess love and arrows,

600
00:25:34,564 --> 00:25:38,359
you know, so and about
the law and Europa,

601
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,700
you notice flagged as
an androgynous and

602
00:25:40,700 --> 00:25:43,219
you know, gender
ambiguous God,

603
00:25:43,219 --> 00:25:44,570
although they
definitely use he,

604
00:25:44,570 --> 00:25:48,694
him and describe
them as an entity.

605
00:25:48,694 --> 00:25:49,999
But in fact, you know,

606
00:25:49,999 --> 00:25:51,349
express, yeah, this
person, you know,

607
00:25:51,349 --> 00:25:53,270
in African Cocina
dresses and

608
00:25:53,270 --> 00:25:55,940
jewels in our kind
of deemed feminine.

609
00:25:55,940 --> 00:26:00,110
And so with mythology
in mind and with

610
00:26:00,110 --> 00:26:01,955
me this again
correlating and

611
00:26:01,955 --> 00:26:03,349
realizing that my gender

612
00:26:03,349 --> 00:26:04,294
has his, I've, you know,

613
00:26:04,294 --> 00:26:05,675
I've related mostly to

614
00:26:05,675 --> 00:26:07,234
these deities
because, you know,

615
00:26:07,234 --> 00:26:09,859
growing up I didn't
see, you know,

616
00:26:09,859 --> 00:26:14,255
non-binary black
trans people on TV.

617
00:26:14,255 --> 00:26:16,775
I didn't see, you know,

618
00:26:16,775 --> 00:26:18,500
people beyond what we

619
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:19,699
deem as male and female.

620
00:26:19,699 --> 00:26:21,589
You know, I, I got a lot of

621
00:26:21,589 --> 00:26:26,209
my representation for
Greek myth and not

622
00:26:26,209 --> 00:26:28,280
really understanding
why until I took

623
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:32,975
a really great course
around butterflies,

624
00:26:32,975 --> 00:26:34,040
now going of
course, but I took

625
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,375
a workshop around gender.

626
00:26:35,375 --> 00:26:38,180
And they mentioned
butterflies. I want

627
00:26:38,180 --> 00:26:39,320
you to all think yourselves

628
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:40,670
characteristics
of butterflies,

629
00:26:40,670 --> 00:26:43,024
you know, they're
very symmetrical.

630
00:26:43,024 --> 00:26:45,350
They have these
patterned wings

631
00:26:45,350 --> 00:26:46,760
that are unique to them.

632
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,850
They might seem the
same to the naked eye,

633
00:26:49,850 --> 00:26:52,880
but up close to a
butterflies lens,

634
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,049
each of these butterflies

635
00:26:54,049 --> 00:26:55,175
are uniquely different,

636
00:26:55,175 --> 00:26:56,525
even if you were
to maybe see.

637
00:26:56,525 --> 00:26:57,859
A butterfly with
the same pattern

638
00:26:57,859 --> 00:27:00,484
here or the same
pattern here right?

639
00:27:00,484 --> 00:27:02,420
In. So you're like,
okay, butterflies,

640
00:27:02,420 --> 00:27:03,949
you went from gender
to butterflies.

641
00:27:03,949 --> 00:27:05,254
Why are we talking?

642
00:27:05,254 --> 00:27:06,829
So remember that k-mer

643
00:27:06,829 --> 00:27:08,180
I talked to you about in

644
00:27:08,180 --> 00:27:13,430
how in Greek myth
it is, you know,

645
00:27:13,430 --> 00:27:15,214
is one of the ways
that we first started

646
00:27:15,214 --> 00:27:16,429
learning about genetics and

647
00:27:16,429 --> 00:27:17,300
people having, you know,

648
00:27:17,300 --> 00:27:20,359
two genders, having
multiple genders,

649
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,645
having two different
kinds of anatomy.

650
00:27:23,645 --> 00:27:25,759
Is that there, we believe

651
00:27:25,759 --> 00:27:27,770
that butterflies are
always symmetrical,

652
00:27:27,770 --> 00:27:31,639
but in fact, no, there's
actually evidence.

653
00:27:31,639 --> 00:27:35,779
And it's been true that
there had been k-mer,

654
00:27:35,779 --> 00:27:38,285
a butterflies that exists.

655
00:27:38,285 --> 00:27:41,255
And they have
asymmetrical wings.

656
00:27:41,255 --> 00:27:42,559
And a k-mer, a

657
00:27:42,559 --> 00:27:44,120
butterfly for those
that don't know,

658
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:45,649
the reason why they
have asymmetrical

659
00:27:45,649 --> 00:27:46,940
wings is because
they are in

660
00:27:46,940 --> 00:27:50,255
fact two gendered
butterflies.

661
00:27:50,255 --> 00:27:53,434
Butterflies that have
to generally, you know,

662
00:27:53,434 --> 00:27:55,369
the wings don't
always have to

663
00:27:55,369 --> 00:27:57,109
be the same size
as you can see,

664
00:27:57,109 --> 00:27:58,444
they can still fly.

665
00:27:58,444 --> 00:28:01,819
But they got the name

666
00:28:01,819 --> 00:28:03,560
hence because of the
multiple genders,

667
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,644
the reference to
become their, right.

668
00:28:05,644 --> 00:28:07,820
And so I love,

669
00:28:07,820 --> 00:28:09,349
I love, love, love.

670
00:28:09,349 --> 00:28:10,699
Just kind of
bringing this as

671
00:28:10,699 --> 00:28:11,900
an example for those

672
00:28:11,900 --> 00:28:13,009
of you who maybe don't feel

673
00:28:13,009 --> 00:28:14,419
well burst or you know,

674
00:28:14,419 --> 00:28:16,939
well qualified
to talk about

675
00:28:16,939 --> 00:28:20,839
gender and the
importance of gender.

676
00:28:20,839 --> 00:28:23,029
But you can totally,

677
00:28:23,029 --> 00:28:24,980
totally bring up
the fact that k-mer

678
00:28:24,980 --> 00:28:26,149
butterflies have
existed from

679
00:28:26,149 --> 00:28:27,725
the beginning of time.

680
00:28:27,725 --> 00:28:30,080
You know, like they're
not just something

681
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,374
that has been made,
you know, I mean,

682
00:28:32,374 --> 00:28:35,359
they there they'd
been passed down,

683
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:36,440
the other stores have
been passed down

684
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:37,819
through our Greek myths.

685
00:28:37,819 --> 00:28:40,730
And so therefore, since
the kMer butterfly,

686
00:28:40,730 --> 00:28:41,990
since there are animals

687
00:28:41,990 --> 00:28:43,010
that have two genders,

688
00:28:43,010 --> 00:28:44,314
since there are animals,

689
00:28:44,314 --> 00:28:46,369
you know that naturally,

690
00:28:46,369 --> 00:28:48,529
you know, not even what

691
00:28:48,529 --> 00:28:50,870
we deem a surgically
or, you know, enhanced.

692
00:28:50,870 --> 00:28:52,520
They're born like this.

693
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,319
Humans also as well too,

694
00:28:54,319 --> 00:28:55,940
can have multiple genders.

695
00:28:55,940 --> 00:28:57,289
There are more
than just again,

696
00:28:57,289 --> 00:28:59,164
men and women that
are on this earth.

697
00:28:59,164 --> 00:29:02,989
Not only no, Are
humans non-binary,

698
00:29:02,989 --> 00:29:05,645
but animals are non-binary.

699
00:29:05,645 --> 00:29:07,640
And they're also not

700
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,410
just k-mer butterflies
that exist.

701
00:29:09,410 --> 00:29:12,319
But you can see
k-mer and cats.

702
00:29:12,319 --> 00:29:15,859
Sometimes you can see
k-mer, i believe,

703
00:29:15,859 --> 00:29:18,439
in certain amphibians,

704
00:29:18,439 --> 00:29:21,560
and a marker that
you'll notice.

705
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:22,970
And you can also
see them in humans.

706
00:29:22,970 --> 00:29:25,984
Sometimes in a good
marker that you can see.

707
00:29:25,984 --> 00:29:28,415
Maybe not always,
don't assume,

708
00:29:28,415 --> 00:29:30,710
but there's usually a line

709
00:29:30,710 --> 00:29:32,494
through the middle of,

710
00:29:32,494 --> 00:29:34,819
you know, cat space

711
00:29:34,819 --> 00:29:36,410
or sometimes the
humans face.

712
00:29:36,410 --> 00:29:37,790
And that will be
the identifier

713
00:29:37,790 --> 00:29:39,350
that this cat, this animal,

714
00:29:39,350 --> 00:29:40,534
this butterfly does human,

715
00:29:40,534 --> 00:29:42,755
might have two genders.

716
00:29:42,755 --> 00:29:43,940
Again, we don't
want to get used

717
00:29:43,940 --> 00:29:45,230
to assuming just because,

718
00:29:45,230 --> 00:29:47,090
you know, we find
new findings.

719
00:29:47,090 --> 00:29:49,265
We don't want to write
to me things into law,

720
00:29:49,265 --> 00:29:51,154
but this is just
a great example.

721
00:29:51,154 --> 00:29:53,075
I think this is
great for all ages.

722
00:29:53,075 --> 00:29:54,350
You know, whether you're

723
00:29:54,350 --> 00:29:55,640
teaching young folks,

724
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,439
older people,
you know, hey,

725
00:29:57,439 --> 00:29:58,489
gender exist, genders,

726
00:29:58,489 --> 00:30:00,110
different genders,
complex. Guess what?

727
00:30:00,110 --> 00:30:01,939
Their butterflies and cats

728
00:30:01,939 --> 00:30:03,110
with two genders,
therefore,

729
00:30:03,110 --> 00:30:06,920
humans can definitely
have xi, two genders.

730
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:08,180
I'm going to fan out and

731
00:30:08,180 --> 00:30:09,200
take some water while,

732
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,950
hey, get through this.

733
00:30:12,950 --> 00:30:14,660
I hope you are following

734
00:30:14,660 --> 00:30:17,749
me and forgive me with
all the noise nicely,

735
00:30:17,749 --> 00:30:20,850
which I can't, but we're
going to keep going.

736
00:30:20,980 --> 00:30:23,300
Just so you know,
how are we doing,

737
00:30:23,300 --> 00:30:25,984
zany. We're doing great.

738
00:30:25,984 --> 00:30:28,024
This is amazing.
I'm learning a lot.

739
00:30:28,024 --> 00:30:30,769
Yea, okay, awesome.

740
00:30:30,769 --> 00:30:32,780
So we went to
k-mer butterfly.

741
00:30:32,780 --> 00:30:35,164
So we took it
from mythology.

742
00:30:35,164 --> 00:30:36,949
What we deem as
make believe

743
00:30:36,949 --> 00:30:39,319
what we deem as you
know, not real,

744
00:30:39,319 --> 00:30:42,110
too exaggerated
set ever possibly,

745
00:30:42,110 --> 00:30:44,765
you know, ever
exist, right?

746
00:30:44,765 --> 00:30:46,640
And then we get to the
scientific because

747
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,695
everyone loves to bring
a scientific thing,

748
00:30:48,695 --> 00:30:50,659
like it's scientifically
empathic,

749
00:30:50,659 --> 00:30:52,219
whatever science
that's two.

750
00:30:52,219 --> 00:30:55,054
But if you really want
to go there, you know,

751
00:30:55,054 --> 00:30:57,739
this is literally
like all the proof,

752
00:30:57,739 --> 00:30:58,849
but again, people
still want to

753
00:30:58,849 --> 00:31:00,785
discredit gender
and it's okay.

754
00:31:00,785 --> 00:31:04,310
But how you as an educator
can cultivate and

755
00:31:04,310 --> 00:31:09,094
help further
establish a culture,

756
00:31:09,094 --> 00:31:11,150
you know, where you are

757
00:31:11,150 --> 00:31:13,130
as welcoming as you
can without being,

758
00:31:13,130 --> 00:31:17,210
you know, to what
disrespectful,

759
00:31:17,210 --> 00:31:18,665
triggering all that stuff.

760
00:31:18,665 --> 00:31:21,740
These three for
these four kind

761
00:31:21,740 --> 00:31:23,179
of tips or what
I'm going to

762
00:31:23,179 --> 00:31:24,499
leave them in a dive into

763
00:31:24,499 --> 00:31:26,600
exactly each one as

764
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:27,920
we get through the slides.

765
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,309
So how I've learned
through teaching,

766
00:31:31,309 --> 00:31:33,649
you know, the many
dance workshops,

767
00:31:33,649 --> 00:31:35,810
the mini ages
from second grade

768
00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:38,674
to seniors in high
school to adults,

769
00:31:38,674 --> 00:31:40,774
young adults too,

770
00:31:40,774 --> 00:31:42,710
is we have to establish

771
00:31:42,710 --> 00:31:44,510
community agree
that, right.

772
00:31:44,510 --> 00:31:46,370
And you know, versus rules

773
00:31:46,370 --> 00:31:47,150
and figure out what

774
00:31:47,150 --> 00:31:48,604
the differences
between those two.

775
00:31:48,604 --> 00:31:49,775
We're going to talk about

776
00:31:49,775 --> 00:31:52,474
pronouns and
accessibility needs,

777
00:31:52,474 --> 00:31:54,320
and what those are
and why they're

778
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,495
so important to
bring up every day.

779
00:31:56,495 --> 00:31:58,730
You know, I'm going
to tell you that,

780
00:31:58,730 --> 00:31:59,810
you know, you're going
to get pushed back.

781
00:31:59,810 --> 00:32:01,159
You're going to
see confusion.

782
00:32:01,159 --> 00:32:02,330
You're gonna get
lack of empathy

783
00:32:02,330 --> 00:32:03,409
because we've all

784
00:32:03,409 --> 00:32:06,334
learned from various
sources about gender.

785
00:32:06,334 --> 00:32:09,170
And so just know

786
00:32:09,170 --> 00:32:09,980
that you're going to get

787
00:32:09,980 --> 00:32:11,165
that and it's normal.

788
00:32:11,165 --> 00:32:12,139
You know, that
you're going to

789
00:32:12,139 --> 00:32:13,340
get so much confusion.

790
00:32:13,340 --> 00:32:15,665
You're also talking
to someone who has

791
00:32:15,665 --> 00:32:18,380
not only socially and
medically transition

792
00:32:18,380 --> 00:32:19,624
in front of her students,

793
00:32:19,624 --> 00:32:20,869
you know, but
I'm again, like

794
00:32:20,869 --> 00:32:23,254
a living example
of this work.

795
00:32:23,254 --> 00:32:25,024
And google is
your best friend.

796
00:32:25,024 --> 00:32:26,029
We're going to talk
about Google in a

797
00:32:26,029 --> 00:32:27,980
second just so we all know.

798
00:32:27,980 --> 00:32:30,799
Because I know again,
like everyone, we say,

799
00:32:30,799 --> 00:32:32,449
we need more
black trans women

800
00:32:32,449 --> 00:32:33,995
teaching us about
this stuff.

801
00:32:33,995 --> 00:32:35,210
Just make sure you also

802
00:32:35,210 --> 00:32:36,439
are doing some of that.

803
00:32:36,439 --> 00:32:38,569
Labor yourselves.

804
00:32:38,569 --> 00:32:43,249
I just hope every Come
On the Run button.

805
00:32:43,249 --> 00:32:45,410
Yeah, we'll talk
about what labor you

806
00:32:45,410 --> 00:32:47,780
can do yourself so
that you're not

807
00:32:47,780 --> 00:32:49,865
putting so much of
the workload on

808
00:32:49,865 --> 00:32:53,254
the communities that
are most impacted,

809
00:32:53,254 --> 00:32:55,130
then I always tell myself,

810
00:32:55,130 --> 00:32:56,570
teachers don't
know everything.

811
00:32:56,570 --> 00:32:57,530
As much as you know,

812
00:32:57,530 --> 00:32:58,700
you're going to get
a certificate that

813
00:32:58,700 --> 00:33:00,919
says you're
qualified to teach.

814
00:33:00,919 --> 00:33:02,510
You were still very
much a student.

815
00:33:02,510 --> 00:33:04,715
And a lot of my, you know,

816
00:33:04,715 --> 00:33:06,290
learnings and findings on

817
00:33:06,290 --> 00:33:07,654
these slides are literally

818
00:33:07,654 --> 00:33:10,700
lib experiences
on top of a very,

819
00:33:10,700 --> 00:33:13,010
you know, researched things

820
00:33:13,010 --> 00:33:14,689
that I have gathered right,

821
00:33:14,689 --> 00:33:16,400
that affirm my
lived experience.

822
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,199
So I just hope
that, you know,

823
00:33:18,199 --> 00:33:19,730
you're gonna get
this certificate

824
00:33:19,730 --> 00:33:20,839
at the end of all of this.

825
00:33:20,839 --> 00:33:22,160
Congratulations
you've made it,

826
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,425
but also just be very,

827
00:33:24,425 --> 00:33:26,224
be very humbling
with yourself.

828
00:33:26,224 --> 00:33:27,649
Know that, yeah,
like your teacher,

829
00:33:27,649 --> 00:33:29,540
but we're all kids still,

830
00:33:29,540 --> 00:33:31,310
to some degree, learning
as we're going.

831
00:33:31,310 --> 00:33:32,900
We have all not live today,

832
00:33:32,900 --> 00:33:35,090
we're on that lived
through a pandemic.

833
00:33:35,090 --> 00:33:36,770
On that lived through

834
00:33:36,770 --> 00:33:37,880
forest fires in a pandemic.

835
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,039
So just be really
great yourselves

836
00:33:40,039 --> 00:33:41,375
as an educator,

837
00:33:41,375 --> 00:33:43,265
diving into this
world, you know,

838
00:33:43,265 --> 00:33:44,944
interacting with
different communities,

839
00:33:44,944 --> 00:33:46,639
you know, challenging

840
00:33:46,639 --> 00:33:48,260
yourself, being
uncomfortable.

841
00:33:48,260 --> 00:33:51,509
Quot, Never sit.

842
00:33:52,450 --> 00:33:54,949
Okay. So what

843
00:33:54,949 --> 00:33:57,604
rules versus
community agreements?

844
00:33:57,604 --> 00:34:00,930
So rules.

845
00:34:01,870 --> 00:34:04,639
Um, I really I've never
been a rule-breaker,

846
00:34:04,639 --> 00:34:06,305
I've always been
afraid of roles.

847
00:34:06,305 --> 00:34:08,419
I've always kind
of like learned.

848
00:34:08,419 --> 00:34:09,649
Like if you break a rule

849
00:34:09,649 --> 00:34:10,774
there's a consequence.

850
00:34:10,774 --> 00:34:13,295
So I kind of tried to stay,

851
00:34:13,295 --> 00:34:15,140
you know, rule break free.

852
00:34:15,140 --> 00:34:18,590
Of course, as a young
person younger DO,

853
00:34:18,590 --> 00:34:22,219
lots of rules get broken.

854
00:34:22,219 --> 00:34:24,889
Sorry, I opened a business.

855
00:34:24,889 --> 00:34:27,739
Rules yet rules
tend to get broken.

856
00:34:27,739 --> 00:34:28,819
Rules are usually also

857
00:34:28,819 --> 00:34:30,484
enforced through coercion.

858
00:34:30,484 --> 00:34:32,569
Coercion is that usually

859
00:34:32,569 --> 00:34:35,149
one authority figure,

860
00:34:35,149 --> 00:34:37,460
right, is creating rules.

861
00:34:37,460 --> 00:34:40,970
And these rules
are, you know,

862
00:34:40,970 --> 00:34:42,559
not only meant
to be broken,

863
00:34:42,559 --> 00:34:44,405
but they're also
meant to control.

864
00:34:44,405 --> 00:34:45,544
Let's be real, right?

865
00:34:45,544 --> 00:34:47,495
Like rules are
meant to control.

866
00:34:47,495 --> 00:34:51,995
Not more so less
than to understand.

867
00:34:51,995 --> 00:34:53,870
And so as you know,

868
00:34:53,870 --> 00:34:55,325
as you're moving through,

869
00:34:55,325 --> 00:34:58,400
as you're, as you're
as you're developing,

870
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,680
you know what you stand
for as an educator

871
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,690
and whether that be

872
00:35:02,690 --> 00:35:04,130
following the rules
or, you know,

873
00:35:04,130 --> 00:35:05,330
letting the work speak

874
00:35:05,330 --> 00:35:06,350
for itself or, you know,

875
00:35:06,350 --> 00:35:08,404
not being so whatever,

876
00:35:08,404 --> 00:35:12,709
just know that rules.

877
00:35:12,709 --> 00:35:14,390
What am I trying to
say? Let me go back

878
00:35:14,390 --> 00:35:17,465
to my slide and stop
trying to go off topic.

879
00:35:17,465 --> 00:35:20,150
So, Rosa, mentally
broken rules

880
00:35:20,150 --> 00:35:22,174
also have very
punitive measures

881
00:35:22,174 --> 00:35:23,779
that come from an
authority in that,

882
00:35:23,779 --> 00:35:24,994
you know, when
you break this,

883
00:35:24,994 --> 00:35:26,914
when you cross
this boundary,

884
00:35:26,914 --> 00:35:28,669
this will happen to you

885
00:35:28,669 --> 00:35:31,729
and basically stay clear

886
00:35:31,729 --> 00:35:33,680
from breaking that rule.

887
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,214
Now. Or this will
happen to you again,

888
00:35:36,214 --> 00:35:38,149
or there'll be an
added consequence

889
00:35:38,149 --> 00:35:39,380
for breaking the
same, right?

890
00:35:39,380 --> 00:35:40,399
Like there's always kind of

891
00:35:40,399 --> 00:35:41,824
like a punishment,

892
00:35:41,824 --> 00:35:42,979
a kind of nothing that's

893
00:35:42,979 --> 00:35:45,259
really going to
the root of maybe

894
00:35:45,259 --> 00:35:46,910
why the world was broken or

895
00:35:46,910 --> 00:35:49,010
maybe by the rule
wasn't followed.

896
00:35:49,010 --> 00:35:50,644
Why the, why the rule

897
00:35:50,644 --> 00:35:52,099
doesn't seem to
be clicking.

898
00:35:52,099 --> 00:35:54,500
And so with community
agreements,

899
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:57,055
you get more input
from everyone.

900
00:35:57,055 --> 00:35:59,659
You get everyone chiming

901
00:35:59,659 --> 00:36:01,430
in about their needs.

902
00:36:01,430 --> 00:36:06,470
You get everyone kind
of, you know, building.

903
00:36:06,470 --> 00:36:07,970
Got everyone's needs
get acknowledged

904
00:36:07,970 --> 00:36:09,710
usually when there's
a cuny agreement

905
00:36:09,710 --> 00:36:10,850
as an educator and

906
00:36:10,850 --> 00:36:12,139
I'll show you an example of

907
00:36:12,139 --> 00:36:14,869
what I mean by Had a
set piece as well too.

908
00:36:14,869 --> 00:36:18,890
But Everyone's
needs, hopefully,

909
00:36:18,890 --> 00:36:21,334
this the goal to get
acknowledged, right.

910
00:36:21,334 --> 00:36:24,514
We can't always
100% be as diverse,

911
00:36:24,514 --> 00:36:27,185
as equitable as we
can, only do our best.

912
00:36:27,185 --> 00:36:28,519
And so as long
as you're doing

913
00:36:28,519 --> 00:36:30,094
your very best and

914
00:36:30,094 --> 00:36:33,139
open to the room
for improvement,

915
00:36:33,139 --> 00:36:34,309
you're going to soar as

916
00:36:34,309 --> 00:36:37,160
an educator and
commute agreements.

917
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,050
I feel in my teachings

918
00:36:39,050 --> 00:36:40,700
and findings have built.

919
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:43,819
Built more
accountability and

920
00:36:43,819 --> 00:36:45,575
restorative justice
practices again

921
00:36:45,575 --> 00:36:47,090
versus punitive
measures two,

922
00:36:47,090 --> 00:36:49,850
whereas, like you
stay as a teacher,

923
00:36:49,850 --> 00:36:51,500
the authority, the
authoritarian,

924
00:36:51,500 --> 00:36:54,064
having control over
your teaching subjects.

925
00:36:54,064 --> 00:36:57,319
And so come on, here we go.

926
00:36:57,319 --> 00:36:59,599
And so example.
And you know,

927
00:36:59,599 --> 00:37:00,769
we've all seen this, right?

928
00:37:00,769 --> 00:37:01,549
But we probably
just haven't

929
00:37:01,549 --> 00:37:02,900
called it community
agreements,

930
00:37:02,900 --> 00:37:04,880
you know, we've
seen, you know,

931
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,229
different acronyms of how

932
00:37:06,229 --> 00:37:07,700
to provide a safe space,

933
00:37:07,700 --> 00:37:09,485
how to provide a
safe environment.

934
00:37:09,485 --> 00:37:11,989
You know, we see always
the golden rule,

935
00:37:11,989 --> 00:37:13,069
United mean
mentioned around

936
00:37:13,069 --> 00:37:14,959
this time and
your first day,

937
00:37:14,959 --> 00:37:16,730
on your very first
day of teaching,

938
00:37:16,730 --> 00:37:18,289
you're going to
really, really,

939
00:37:18,289 --> 00:37:20,915
really want to
spend, like I said,

940
00:37:20,915 --> 00:37:22,880
as much time,

941
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,995
no matter what age
range you're teaching,

942
00:37:24,995 --> 00:37:26,269
I promise you,
you're going to

943
00:37:26,269 --> 00:37:27,619
want to spend
as much time on

944
00:37:27,619 --> 00:37:28,774
those first two days

945
00:37:28,774 --> 00:37:30,650
establishing this culture

946
00:37:30,650 --> 00:37:32,015
we're talking about here.

947
00:37:32,015 --> 00:37:35,450
Like really making sure
that the group is add

948
00:37:35,450 --> 00:37:38,029
a full understanding of
like an order for us

949
00:37:38,029 --> 00:37:40,985
to succeed in this course.

950
00:37:40,985 --> 00:37:44,179
We need to all
agree, you know,

951
00:37:44,179 --> 00:37:46,144
to respecting one another,

952
00:37:46,144 --> 00:37:48,544
verses being told to
respect one another,

953
00:37:48,544 --> 00:37:50,225
that may catch my drip.

954
00:37:50,225 --> 00:37:52,129
And so I always ask,

955
00:37:52,129 --> 00:37:54,095
what does a safe
environment look and

956
00:37:54,095 --> 00:37:56,120
feel like right now,

957
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:56,839
just what does
it look like,

958
00:37:56,839 --> 00:37:58,069
but what does it
also feel like?

959
00:37:58,069 --> 00:38:00,380
So you're also
getting, you know,

960
00:38:00,380 --> 00:38:01,669
people's needs and

961
00:38:01,669 --> 00:38:03,125
reasoning behind the needs.

962
00:38:03,125 --> 00:38:05,255
So always divide mine up.

963
00:38:05,255 --> 00:38:08,749
Save SHF e, i
go over safety.

964
00:38:08,749 --> 00:38:10,999
Safety being as
a dance teacher,

965
00:38:10,999 --> 00:38:12,230
I'm always looking
around like what are

966
00:38:12,230 --> 00:38:13,805
the hazards in the room?

967
00:38:13,805 --> 00:38:15,619
Where the boundaries,
you know,

968
00:38:15,619 --> 00:38:18,859
what, where, how can we
keep each other safe?

969
00:38:18,859 --> 00:38:21,424
You know, how do
we, you know,

970
00:38:21,424 --> 00:38:23,060
how do we make sure

971
00:38:23,060 --> 00:38:24,740
we're not making
people feel alienated?

972
00:38:24,740 --> 00:38:26,030
How do we make sure we
were not making people

973
00:38:26,030 --> 00:38:27,949
feel indifferent
or different?

974
00:38:27,949 --> 00:38:30,020
How do we make sure?

975
00:38:30,020 --> 00:38:32,089
Yes, they will
definitely be

976
00:38:32,089 --> 00:38:33,170
available for you all

977
00:38:33,170 --> 00:38:34,744
you know, like the slot?

978
00:38:34,744 --> 00:38:36,589
I guess I but yes,

979
00:38:36,589 --> 00:38:38,584
these slides will
definitely be available.

980
00:38:38,584 --> 00:38:41,059
I will definitely Henries
over to Jamie and

981
00:38:41,059 --> 00:38:44,179
the Office of Academic
Innovation for sure.

982
00:38:44,179 --> 00:38:46,370
But yes, yeah, how do we

983
00:38:46,370 --> 00:38:48,215
keep ourselves and
each other safe?

984
00:38:48,215 --> 00:38:49,940
You know, I always say,
you know, and again,

985
00:38:49,940 --> 00:38:52,340
I I teach you some
always like Okay.

986
00:38:52,340 --> 00:38:54,079
You know, yeah,
where can we not go?

987
00:38:54,079 --> 00:38:55,460
Like, where's the
lava? You know,

988
00:38:55,460 --> 00:38:56,360
you can make it fun.

989
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:57,020
You don't have to make it.

990
00:38:57,020 --> 00:38:58,099
So we're going to be safe,

991
00:38:58,099 --> 00:38:59,509
but we're going to
make sure we're all

992
00:38:59,509 --> 00:39:00,350
making sure we're not

993
00:39:00,350 --> 00:39:02,179
crossing those boundaries.

994
00:39:02,179 --> 00:39:04,969
With that, I hope
everyone knows

995
00:39:04,969 --> 00:39:08,120
that we're not put
on Earth to not,

996
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:09,980
you know, trigger anyone

997
00:39:09,980 --> 00:39:11,149
or to not cross boundaries.

998
00:39:11,149 --> 00:39:12,334
Where again, we're here to

999
00:39:12,334 --> 00:39:14,150
build more understanding.

1000
00:39:14,150 --> 00:39:15,350
We're not here to make sure

1001
00:39:15,350 --> 00:39:16,430
everyone has an easy,

1002
00:39:16,430 --> 00:39:19,370
breezy, beautiful ease,

1003
00:39:19,370 --> 00:39:21,095
you know, stress-free life.

1004
00:39:21,095 --> 00:39:22,429
We're going to
trigger people

1005
00:39:22,429 --> 00:39:23,839
were going to say
the wrong thing,

1006
00:39:23,839 --> 00:39:26,105
we're going to mess
up until again.

1007
00:39:26,105 --> 00:39:29,420
This helps us BSB

1008
00:39:29,420 --> 00:39:30,590
accountable to
ourselves and

1009
00:39:30,590 --> 00:39:31,729
also to have more than

1010
00:39:31,729 --> 00:39:35,059
race when it comes to
doing this. And so yes.

1011
00:39:35,059 --> 00:39:36,800
Safety. You can ask
anything about yeah.

1012
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,599
What are the
physical boundaries,

1013
00:39:38,599 --> 00:39:40,519
what are each other's
personal boundaries?

1014
00:39:40,519 --> 00:39:41,089
I like to ask

1015
00:39:41,089 --> 00:39:42,750
people and tell
people, you know,

1016
00:39:42,750 --> 00:39:43,999
as a dance instructor,

1017
00:39:43,999 --> 00:39:45,469
I will never
touch you without

1018
00:39:45,469 --> 00:39:47,089
asking permission.

1019
00:39:47,089 --> 00:39:50,210
You know, we grow
up a lot for

1020
00:39:50,210 --> 00:39:51,859
those who've been in
dance studios were

1021
00:39:51,859 --> 00:39:54,020
instructors are grabbing
you by the arm,

1022
00:39:54,020 --> 00:39:56,180
touching you
without any type

1023
00:39:56,180 --> 00:39:58,430
of consent in a simple way

1024
00:39:58,430 --> 00:40:00,559
to practice that and
practice no good

1025
00:40:00,559 --> 00:40:03,395
save touch on all levels.

1026
00:40:03,395 --> 00:40:06,440
Learning is through
assay for consent.

1027
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:07,609
So if you're doing
anything that

1028
00:40:07,609 --> 00:40:08,809
requires you to touch or

1029
00:40:08,809 --> 00:40:12,785
engage or corrects
anyone's body?

1030
00:40:12,785 --> 00:40:14,389
I always just practice,

1031
00:40:14,389 --> 00:40:16,294
Hey, I will
never touch you.

1032
00:40:16,294 --> 00:40:19,024
Before asking and if I do,

1033
00:40:19,024 --> 00:40:20,269
remind me like, Hey,

1034
00:40:20,269 --> 00:40:21,980
Ms. Randy, you
didn't ask before

1035
00:40:21,980 --> 00:40:24,109
it touching me and
my oh, my bad.

1036
00:40:24,109 --> 00:40:26,749
Move on. Get into that.

1037
00:40:26,749 --> 00:40:28,009
So yes, safety is all about

1038
00:40:28,009 --> 00:40:29,554
what are the
physical boundaries,

1039
00:40:29,554 --> 00:40:31,400
what are each
other's boundaries,

1040
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,875
and how can we all
agree to that, right?

1041
00:40:33,875 --> 00:40:36,109
A, always let the
Thurman accountability.

1042
00:40:36,109 --> 00:40:38,179
This is how we're going

1043
00:40:38,179 --> 00:40:40,625
to have rules in play,

1044
00:40:40,625 --> 00:40:42,020
have agreements in play,

1045
00:40:42,020 --> 00:40:44,569
but also how we're
going to not

1046
00:40:44,569 --> 00:40:46,729
just go

1047
00:40:46,729 --> 00:40:48,200
to punitive
measures because

1048
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:48,860
of where it was broken,

1049
00:40:48,860 --> 00:40:51,140
but how are we going
to a store, you know,

1050
00:40:51,140 --> 00:40:53,329
the harm be the justice,

1051
00:40:53,329 --> 00:40:54,380
the whatever, you know,

1052
00:40:54,380 --> 00:40:55,564
that was cause, right?

1053
00:40:55,564 --> 00:40:56,779
And so accountability,
how are we

1054
00:40:56,779 --> 00:40:57,829
going to hold
ourselves accountable?

1055
00:40:57,829 --> 00:40:59,059
Because we always like
to say, you know,

1056
00:40:59,059 --> 00:41:01,684
in a world with no rules,
it's chaos, right?

1057
00:41:01,684 --> 00:41:02,930
And it's not that there
doesn't need to be

1058
00:41:02,930 --> 00:41:04,039
rules that we all need

1059
00:41:04,039 --> 00:41:06,320
to be able to say,

1060
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,194
hey, if I again,

1061
00:41:08,194 --> 00:41:11,030
if I cross the
safety boundaries

1062
00:41:11,030 --> 00:41:12,650
that we've just agreed to,

1063
00:41:12,650 --> 00:41:15,065
How will we move forward,

1064
00:41:15,065 --> 00:41:16,925
you know, where the trust,

1065
00:41:16,925 --> 00:41:18,289
the safety, and everything

1066
00:41:18,289 --> 00:41:19,999
else is still in
short and not,

1067
00:41:19,999 --> 00:41:21,739
you know, this person
crossed my boundary.

1068
00:41:21,739 --> 00:41:24,229
I can never go to
this person class.

1069
00:41:24,229 --> 00:41:25,580
I can never talk to

1070
00:41:25,580 --> 00:41:26,599
that person and tell

1071
00:41:26,599 --> 00:41:27,800
them, you know, that hey,

1072
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,690
this what you said made me

1073
00:41:29,690 --> 00:41:31,669
feel XYZ or if

1074
00:41:31,669 --> 00:41:33,050
this was really
triggering, right?

1075
00:41:33,050 --> 00:41:36,455
And so how can we
create the space,

1076
00:41:36,455 --> 00:41:38,269
the welcoming space for

1077
00:41:38,269 --> 00:41:39,830
critique on all levels.

1078
00:41:39,830 --> 00:41:41,479
See now not just
to the teacher,

1079
00:41:41,479 --> 00:41:43,040
but also to the students,

1080
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:43,940
but also to the teacher,

1081
00:41:43,940 --> 00:41:45,379
professor, et cetera.

1082
00:41:45,379 --> 00:41:47,269
And so yeah, How will
we hold ourselves

1083
00:41:47,269 --> 00:41:48,860
accountable to being
safe and respectful?

1084
00:41:48,860 --> 00:41:53,060
How can the students show,

1085
00:41:53,060 --> 00:41:55,160
How can the students
arms I hold this,

1086
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:56,180
suppose we hold, hold

1087
00:41:56,180 --> 00:41:57,500
the teacher accountable.

1088
00:41:57,500 --> 00:41:58,595
So I always say, yeah, like

1089
00:41:58,595 --> 00:41:59,884
if I cross my boundary,

1090
00:41:59,884 --> 00:42:01,760
you know, yeah, like what?

1091
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,170
Now like what's the reward?

1092
00:42:03,170 --> 00:42:04,684
But again, yeah, like wet.

1093
00:42:04,684 --> 00:42:05,930
What would you me, what

1094
00:42:05,930 --> 00:42:07,039
would your needs
v in order for

1095
00:42:07,039 --> 00:42:09,829
that boundary to be or for,

1096
00:42:09,829 --> 00:42:11,780
you know, your
forgiveness, you know,

1097
00:42:11,780 --> 00:42:14,660
for me to move on
and not get on this.

1098
00:42:14,660 --> 00:42:16,580
And usually it's, you know,

1099
00:42:16,580 --> 00:42:17,570
like say if the students,

1100
00:42:17,570 --> 00:42:19,310
you know, like, hey, yeah,

1101
00:42:19,310 --> 00:42:21,860
if we're off topic, what
time do you I mean,

1102
00:42:21,860 --> 00:42:23,300
because you know
where, where you're

1103
00:42:23,300 --> 00:42:25,594
wasting your time always
in everyone's time.

1104
00:42:25,594 --> 00:42:27,649
Teacher, if I'm getting

1105
00:42:27,649 --> 00:42:29,629
too much in my
authoritarian,

1106
00:42:29,629 --> 00:42:31,789
I'm just commanding,
gotta go many places.

1107
00:42:31,789 --> 00:42:33,874
How can you, I'll be
like, Oh, Ms. Randy,

1108
00:42:33,874 --> 00:42:35,780
going a little
bit too much.

1109
00:42:35,780 --> 00:42:38,119
Uniting mean. Okay. My
that what do you need?

1110
00:42:38,119 --> 00:42:40,009
You know, hey, can we do

1111
00:42:40,009 --> 00:42:41,959
an extra five minutes
of our free time

1112
00:42:41,959 --> 00:42:43,790
at the end or an extra
five minutes DPP-4,

1113
00:42:43,790 --> 00:42:45,049
less of maybe their least

1114
00:42:45,049 --> 00:42:46,264
favorite subject,
who knows?

1115
00:42:46,264 --> 00:42:49,789
You know, I mean, and
so it can work any way.

1116
00:42:49,789 --> 00:42:52,189
These accountability
isn't to get,

1117
00:42:52,189 --> 00:42:54,890
you know, one over on
from your students.

1118
00:42:54,890 --> 00:42:57,065
It's really again
to how do you

1119
00:42:57,065 --> 00:42:59,900
develop that rapport
as an educator

1120
00:42:59,900 --> 00:43:02,810
to cater to a
student it into

1121
00:43:02,810 --> 00:43:06,170
the rest of the peers
that yaw can talk.

1122
00:43:06,170 --> 00:43:09,280
Flexibility. And you know,

1123
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,470
I always like to
say, you know,

1124
00:43:11,470 --> 00:43:13,239
in a learning environment,
no one's learning

1125
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:14,965
if we're not being
challenged, right?

1126
00:43:14,965 --> 00:43:16,659
And so I say where
are the areas

1127
00:43:16,659 --> 00:43:18,160
where we can challenge

1128
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,290
ourselves and go outside

1129
00:43:20,290 --> 00:43:21,370
of our comfort zones,

1130
00:43:21,370 --> 00:43:22,570
you know, safety is all

1131
00:43:22,570 --> 00:43:24,940
about being safe, being
comfortable, right?

1132
00:43:24,940 --> 00:43:27,130
Where there's some
boundaries, not that,

1133
00:43:27,130 --> 00:43:28,690
you know, because I believe

1134
00:43:28,690 --> 00:43:30,610
boundaries are
there for a reason.

1135
00:43:30,610 --> 00:43:31,869
Right. Don't cross them

1136
00:43:31,869 --> 00:43:33,579
because they exist, right?

1137
00:43:33,579 --> 00:43:36,084
But which boundaries
are there

1138
00:43:36,084 --> 00:43:37,824
that don't have to be so

1139
00:43:37,824 --> 00:43:39,250
do not cross this boundary.

1140
00:43:39,250 --> 00:43:40,885
Where can we all

1141
00:43:40,885 --> 00:43:43,510
be like yo Ms.
Randy, you know?

1142
00:43:43,510 --> 00:43:45,820
Do you have to dance

1143
00:43:45,820 --> 00:43:48,144
to all edited
music Every time?

1144
00:43:48,144 --> 00:43:50,189
Can we please talk
about censorship?

1145
00:43:50,189 --> 00:43:53,029
And you know, I mean,
and see if we can have

1146
00:43:53,029 --> 00:43:54,439
maybe one or two songs that

1147
00:43:54,439 --> 00:43:56,329
have cosine got the deck.

1148
00:43:56,329 --> 00:43:57,889
We have one song,

1149
00:43:57,889 --> 00:43:59,495
Miss Randy, where
we can twerk

1150
00:43:59,495 --> 00:44:00,769
for five to ten minutes.

1151
00:44:00,769 --> 00:44:01,879
Can we have, you know,

1152
00:44:01,879 --> 00:44:03,844
like there's that and
then for me it's like,

1153
00:44:03,844 --> 00:44:05,569
okay, if I do that,

1154
00:44:05,569 --> 00:44:08,029
can I get, you know,

1155
00:44:08,029 --> 00:44:10,219
can I get all silence

1156
00:44:10,219 --> 00:44:11,930
when I'm talking about
this one thing that I

1157
00:44:11,930 --> 00:44:13,189
want to get through
everything Can

1158
00:44:13,189 --> 00:44:15,364
I can I add

1159
00:44:15,364 --> 00:44:16,850
a little bit more time

1160
00:44:16,850 --> 00:44:19,385
to this debrief because
it's really gonna,

1161
00:44:19,385 --> 00:44:20,464
I think, you know,

1162
00:44:20,464 --> 00:44:21,770
I'm really trying
to get out of focus

1163
00:44:21,770 --> 00:44:23,569
and attached to this
next point, you know,

1164
00:44:23,569 --> 00:44:25,310
so where can you both be

1165
00:44:25,310 --> 00:44:27,500
flexible and
challenging yourselves

1166
00:44:27,500 --> 00:44:29,179
as an educator
and other stupid?

1167
00:44:29,179 --> 00:44:30,769
Then always, of
course, you know,

1168
00:44:30,769 --> 00:44:32,419
this is where the
golden rule comes in.

1169
00:44:32,419 --> 00:44:33,439
You, there's always
an element of

1170
00:44:33,439 --> 00:44:35,015
encouragement or,

1171
00:44:35,015 --> 00:44:38,089
you know, you can
have E, expectation.

1172
00:44:38,089 --> 00:44:41,300
I mean, like if you
don't have For me,

1173
00:44:41,300 --> 00:44:42,530
I always say if you
don't have anything nice

1174
00:44:42,530 --> 00:44:43,864
to say, don't
say it at all.

1175
00:44:43,864 --> 00:44:44,629
You know, especially in

1176
00:44:44,629 --> 00:44:45,499
a dance setting, you know,

1177
00:44:45,499 --> 00:44:46,760
we were watching
people dance

1178
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,040
where we're
making judgments.

1179
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:50,900
You have biases
on how people

1180
00:44:50,900 --> 00:44:53,990
move and what
good movement or,

1181
00:44:53,990 --> 00:44:55,429
you know, good
dancing looks like,

1182
00:44:55,429 --> 00:44:56,929
what a good dancer
looks like.

1183
00:44:56,929 --> 00:44:57,559
And it's like, you know,

1184
00:44:57,559 --> 00:44:58,700
if anything nice to say,

1185
00:44:58,700 --> 00:45:00,094
don't say it at all or,

1186
00:45:00,094 --> 00:45:02,344
you know, let's
always, you know,

1187
00:45:02,344 --> 00:45:04,729
let's say, let's encourage
people to fall in

1188
00:45:04,729 --> 00:45:06,229
a dance class because
you don't come here

1189
00:45:06,229 --> 00:45:07,790
to know anything you
come here to learn.

1190
00:45:07,790 --> 00:45:09,200
So if you're filing
your learnings,

1191
00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:10,685
I encourage ought to fall.

1192
00:45:10,685 --> 00:45:12,239
I encourage everyone to

1193
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,855
encourage myself to
fall sometimes in,

1194
00:45:14,855 --> 00:45:18,769
learn from again, learn
from my students.

1195
00:45:18,769 --> 00:45:20,000
You know, each classroom,

1196
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,309
each setting, each
subject, each area,

1197
00:45:22,309 --> 00:45:26,315
each region, each
school is different.

1198
00:45:26,315 --> 00:45:27,785
You know, all of this.

1199
00:45:27,785 --> 00:45:29,179
This is just a blueprint.

1200
00:45:29,179 --> 00:45:30,409
You're going to
fill in what

1201
00:45:30,409 --> 00:45:32,030
that school that
those students,

1202
00:45:32,030 --> 00:45:35,264
what that area with
that community needs.

1203
00:45:35,264 --> 00:45:38,700
As you listen and
get their input.

1204
00:45:38,700 --> 00:45:42,654
Again, these are no,
these are really no.

1205
00:45:42,654 --> 00:45:44,185
The only difference
with these

1206
00:45:44,185 --> 00:45:45,430
rules is that again,

1207
00:45:45,430 --> 00:45:47,094
like rules come from

1208
00:45:47,094 --> 00:45:49,539
one entity that
has deemed itself,

1209
00:45:49,539 --> 00:45:51,625
the authoritarian
has gained itself.

1210
00:45:51,625 --> 00:45:53,620
You know, I'll be
all that is deemed

1211
00:45:53,620 --> 00:45:56,319
itself and capable
of being challenged.

1212
00:45:56,319 --> 00:45:58,044
Our laws, you
know, to this day

1213
00:45:58,044 --> 00:46:00,024
aren't capable of being
challenged, right.

1214
00:46:00,024 --> 00:46:01,450
Like all of our
laws or rules,

1215
00:46:01,450 --> 00:46:02,530
that none of us had

1216
00:46:02,530 --> 00:46:04,299
any input and we have
laws that we don't

1217
00:46:04,299 --> 00:46:05,589
even know they're
against us

1218
00:46:05,589 --> 00:46:07,420
because we had no
input in them, right?

1219
00:46:07,420 --> 00:46:10,179
And so you can take
that these are, again,

1220
00:46:10,179 --> 00:46:11,620
these are how
you can easily

1221
00:46:11,620 --> 00:46:13,655
relate them to real life.

1222
00:46:13,655 --> 00:46:16,290
And so yeah, you get
everyone's contribution.

1223
00:46:16,290 --> 00:46:18,239
Everyone has ideally
stated their needs.

1224
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:19,710
You're going to go
through all of these and

1225
00:46:19,710 --> 00:46:21,870
asked the quiet folks like,

1226
00:46:21,870 --> 00:46:23,700
Hey, did you have anything
to add to safety?

1227
00:46:23,700 --> 00:46:25,199
I mean, everyone's
not comfortable

1228
00:46:25,199 --> 00:46:27,315
talking in front of people.

1229
00:46:27,315 --> 00:46:29,549
Or if no one's, you know,

1230
00:46:29,549 --> 00:46:31,169
feeling comfortable
sharing with

1231
00:46:31,169 --> 00:46:32,939
me their knees in
front of everyone.

1232
00:46:32,939 --> 00:46:35,310
You can, you know,
you can hold me

1233
00:46:35,310 --> 00:46:36,390
accountable and see me

1234
00:46:36,390 --> 00:46:38,624
after or get a
hold of me after,

1235
00:46:38,624 --> 00:46:40,770
you know, to make
it so that we

1236
00:46:40,770 --> 00:46:41,879
can make sure that everyone

1237
00:46:41,879 --> 00:46:43,079
gets their input right.

1238
00:46:43,079 --> 00:46:44,519
Because there are
also, you know, like

1239
00:46:44,519 --> 00:46:46,674
we tend to be like over
there people sharing.

1240
00:46:46,674 --> 00:46:48,209
I mean, like everyone

1241
00:46:48,209 --> 00:46:49,499
spoke but not
everyone dating,

1242
00:46:49,499 --> 00:46:50,734
you know, it, you
know, I mean,

1243
00:46:50,734 --> 00:46:52,185
so you can yeah.

1244
00:46:52,185 --> 00:46:53,969
You're gonna go through
every single one.

1245
00:46:53,969 --> 00:46:55,889
Ask, did you find anything,

1246
00:46:55,889 --> 00:46:57,120
how you can be flexible?

1247
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:58,694
Did you find any areas

1248
00:46:58,694 --> 00:46:59,865
that you can be
encouraging?

1249
00:46:59,865 --> 00:47:02,339
And we found in E is
always at the end too.

1250
00:47:02,339 --> 00:47:03,029
Is there anything we're

1251
00:47:03,029 --> 00:47:04,559
missing from we add
another letter,

1252
00:47:04,559 --> 00:47:06,300
doesn't have to
spell out anything.

1253
00:47:06,300 --> 00:47:08,700
It could be random
alphabet letters.

1254
00:47:08,700 --> 00:47:11,400
She doesn't have
to make sense.

1255
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:15,915
It just has to feel
and look good, right?

1256
00:47:15,915 --> 00:47:18,030
And so, you know, this is,

1257
00:47:18,030 --> 00:47:19,229
this is an example

1258
00:47:19,229 --> 00:47:21,015
of people negotiating
contracts.

1259
00:47:21,015 --> 00:47:22,440
You know, when you
get a contract,

1260
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:23,849
you don't just sign
it right away, right?

1261
00:47:23,849 --> 00:47:25,620
You read through
everything and you say,

1262
00:47:25,620 --> 00:47:27,810
I am not consenting
to that.

1263
00:47:27,810 --> 00:47:29,865
You will not be taken
all of my royalties.

1264
00:47:29,865 --> 00:47:31,815
You will not be able to

1265
00:47:31,815 --> 00:47:33,360
use this outside of

1266
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:34,874
just the, you know,
like this is,

1267
00:47:34,874 --> 00:47:38,565
this is building
so many skills

1268
00:47:38,565 --> 00:47:41,444
that we don't
even realize it.

1269
00:47:41,444 --> 00:47:43,800
And account again,
the accountability

1270
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,380
and restorative justice
practices are just

1271
00:47:46,380 --> 00:47:49,395
way more or just

1272
00:47:49,395 --> 00:47:52,035
more impactful
in my opinion.

1273
00:47:52,035 --> 00:47:56,189
A message regarded as
a chat really quick,

1274
00:47:56,189 --> 00:47:57,944
just in case
there are any new

1275
00:47:57,944 --> 00:48:00,120
questions come
and chat with you

1276
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:05,384
at that wasn't it?

1277
00:48:05,384 --> 00:48:06,570
Just given you lots of

1278
00:48:06,570 --> 00:48:07,770
love in the chat, Randy?

1279
00:48:07,770 --> 00:48:10,169
Just love they in great.

1280
00:48:10,169 --> 00:48:10,879
Great.

1281
00:48:10,879 --> 00:48:14,100
Okay. Awesome. I think
I did something wrong.

1282
00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:18,250
No. I don't want to
push exit, right.

1283
00:48:18,730 --> 00:48:20,884
I just wanna Okay, great.

1284
00:48:20,884 --> 00:48:22,280
Well, I hope this
isn't in the way.

1285
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:23,909
Let me know.

1286
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:30,095
Or no, no, sorry.
Here, let me try this.

1287
00:48:30,095 --> 00:48:32,764
Really click OK and
then let me go back to

1288
00:48:32,764 --> 00:48:36,229
present. Okay,
great, there we go.

1289
00:48:36,229 --> 00:48:38,360
Thanks for the
love everyone.

1290
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,444
And so with that
being said,

1291
00:48:40,444 --> 00:48:44,360
we move on to pronouns
and accessibility.

1292
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,415
So I'm going to go back.

1293
00:48:46,415 --> 00:48:49,535
Should emit a double
slide, but it's okay.

1294
00:48:49,535 --> 00:48:52,850
I'm gonna go back to
this part and I started

1295
00:48:52,850 --> 00:48:56,239
off with when I came in
and gave you my name.

1296
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,250
Pronouns in my
accessibility needs.

1297
00:49:00,170 --> 00:49:03,450
When it comes to gender,
pronouns, pronouns,

1298
00:49:03,450 --> 00:49:07,920
pronouns are very,
writes, very daunting.

1299
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:11,325
No one wants to say
the wrong thing.

1300
00:49:11,325 --> 00:49:13,980
No one wants to

1301
00:49:13,980 --> 00:49:16,049
put so much labor on

1302
00:49:16,049 --> 00:49:18,450
folks to correct
them, right.

1303
00:49:18,450 --> 00:49:21,420
All the stuff I'm let
you all know right now,

1304
00:49:21,420 --> 00:49:24,449
is that for me,

1305
00:49:24,449 --> 00:49:26,640
there's a
difference between

1306
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:27,450
messing up on

1307
00:49:27,450 --> 00:49:28,920
someone's pronoun
and correcting

1308
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,630
yourself versus
missing upon

1309
00:49:30,630 --> 00:49:33,179
a pronoun and acting
like it didn't.

1310
00:49:33,179 --> 00:49:39,120
Happen or, or, you know,

1311
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:42,449
there's something
different about getting

1312
00:49:42,449 --> 00:49:45,269
someone's pronoun
wrong intentionally

1313
00:49:45,269 --> 00:49:46,830
and not wanting to
express yourself.

1314
00:49:46,830 --> 00:49:47,369
So I want to make sure

1315
00:49:47,369 --> 00:49:47,910
that everyone knows that

1316
00:49:47,910 --> 00:49:49,094
those are all differences.

1317
00:49:49,094 --> 00:49:51,479
And people who
have, you know,

1318
00:49:51,479 --> 00:49:54,855
unique pronouns, I feel
like honestly get it.

1319
00:49:54,855 --> 00:49:57,719
You know, we can see
when someone's putting

1320
00:49:57,719 --> 00:49:59,430
an effort versus
someone who

1321
00:49:59,430 --> 00:50:01,679
is trying to stay within
their units, right?

1322
00:50:01,679 --> 00:50:03,239
We we can feel it.

1323
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:04,395
You all I feel like

1324
00:50:04,395 --> 00:50:05,729
all folks know when

1325
00:50:05,729 --> 00:50:07,815
someone's thrown you a
little bit of shade.

1326
00:50:07,815 --> 00:50:10,440
I mean, like, you know,

1327
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:11,639
we can all feel
that trust to

1328
00:50:11,639 --> 00:50:13,080
get right my trusted

1329
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,974
that that person might

1330
00:50:15,974 --> 00:50:16,829
or might not tell you

1331
00:50:16,829 --> 00:50:17,850
the need surrounding
pronouns.

1332
00:50:17,850 --> 00:50:19,109
Because again,
Pronouns, a lot

1333
00:50:19,109 --> 00:50:21,310
of people put so much,

1334
00:50:22,010 --> 00:50:24,900
you know, like for
me I feel like

1335
00:50:24,900 --> 00:50:26,880
pronouns aren't that
hard to remember.

1336
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,279
What's hard to do for
people is to just

1337
00:50:29,279 --> 00:50:32,250
again like remove the idea

1338
00:50:32,250 --> 00:50:33,299
that only men and

1339
00:50:33,299 --> 00:50:35,010
women exist on
this planet are

1340
00:50:35,010 --> 00:50:36,480
only people should identify

1341
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,024
as some type of man,

1342
00:50:38,024 --> 00:50:39,389
some type of woman, right?

1343
00:50:39,389 --> 00:50:42,780
And so as a teaching
artist who has made it a

1344
00:50:42,780 --> 00:50:44,520
point every day to

1345
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,339
talk about pronouns
and accessibility.

1346
00:50:47,339 --> 00:50:52,484
I've noticed in my
five plus years,

1347
00:50:52,484 --> 00:50:54,960
there has been way
more engagement

1348
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,719
and willingness to
engage in the classroom.

1349
00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,759
When you have,

1350
00:50:59,759 --> 00:51:02,490
ask someone what are
their needs surrounding?

1351
00:51:02,490 --> 00:51:03,539
How can they get

1352
00:51:03,539 --> 00:51:05,820
through your
courts, you know,

1353
00:51:05,820 --> 00:51:08,685
get through school,
get through whatever,

1354
00:51:08,685 --> 00:51:09,870
get through your
class, get to

1355
00:51:09,870 --> 00:51:11,414
your session, get
your workshop.

1356
00:51:11,414 --> 00:51:13,620
I've witnessed
more willingness

1357
00:51:13,620 --> 00:51:14,999
to work with new people,

1358
00:51:14,999 --> 00:51:16,590
young monks

1359
00:51:16,590 --> 00:51:19,079
bearing classrooms
from yet again,

1360
00:51:19,079 --> 00:51:22,424
KID, young people
to adults.

1361
00:51:22,424 --> 00:51:26,279
And this is, this is key.

1362
00:51:26,279 --> 00:51:27,989
This is literally key to

1363
00:51:27,989 --> 00:51:30,120
that culture that you're

1364
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:31,949
trying to develop
as an educator,

1365
00:51:31,949 --> 00:51:34,664
as an innovative educator.

1366
00:51:34,664 --> 00:51:38,670
So just know that
like pronouns,

1367
00:51:38,670 --> 00:51:41,204
accessibility,
you're going to talk

1368
00:51:41,204 --> 00:51:44,039
about it every day.
Because guess what?

1369
00:51:44,039 --> 00:51:46,589
Everyday are pronouns and

1370
00:51:46,589 --> 00:51:48,734
our access needs
are different.

1371
00:51:48,734 --> 00:51:50,759
Note and, you know,

1372
00:51:50,759 --> 00:51:53,100
I'm not the same
that when I

1373
00:51:53,100 --> 00:51:55,634
woke up 5-6 hours ago,

1374
00:51:55,634 --> 00:51:57,779
I'm that some people's

1375
00:51:57,779 --> 00:51:59,385
pronouns changed
up the day.

1376
00:51:59,385 --> 00:52:01,170
Some people know
their pronouns from

1377
00:52:01,170 --> 00:52:03,179
Jump and they're
like, get it right.

1378
00:52:03,179 --> 00:52:04,770
Or I, you know,

1379
00:52:04,770 --> 00:52:06,390
goes, I snuff, right.

1380
00:52:06,390 --> 00:52:07,590
Like and some
people are like,

1381
00:52:07,590 --> 00:52:08,819
you know what?
I don't know.

1382
00:52:08,819 --> 00:52:10,260
I really don't care.

1383
00:52:10,260 --> 00:52:12,360
And I say all of

1384
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,610
that is valid when your
innovative educator,

1385
00:52:14,610 --> 00:52:16,439
I think all of it is

1386
00:52:16,439 --> 00:52:18,345
so valid and
you don't have,

1387
00:52:18,345 --> 00:52:19,905
and again, if you mess up,

1388
00:52:19,905 --> 00:52:22,455
just apologize
and move along.

1389
00:52:22,455 --> 00:52:25,634
If anyone's ever heard
of, oops, an ouch.

1390
00:52:25,634 --> 00:52:32,145
This has been a really
great way for me to,

1391
00:52:32,145 --> 00:52:34,080
I learned about
this in Seattle.

1392
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:35,730
City of Seattle
actually parks,

1393
00:52:35,730 --> 00:52:37,319
recreation Shut up to then.

1394
00:52:37,319 --> 00:52:40,034
I learned that this
is a great way,

1395
00:52:40,034 --> 00:52:42,224
you know, four and I'll
explain what it is.

1396
00:52:42,224 --> 00:52:45,509
This is a great way
for people to state

1397
00:52:45,509 --> 00:52:47,009
when maybe something
was said or

1398
00:52:47,009 --> 00:52:49,560
something was done or
maybe I don't know.

1399
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,079
Something again, the intent

1400
00:52:52,079 --> 00:52:53,639
didn't match the impact.

1401
00:52:53,639 --> 00:52:55,859
And we either say,
oops or ouch.

1402
00:52:55,859 --> 00:52:59,174
So say I was doing
this presentation.

1403
00:52:59,174 --> 00:53:02,489
And I, and I'm.
Get disintegrates.

1404
00:53:02,489 --> 00:53:03,689
So say I said
this presentation

1405
00:53:03,689 --> 00:53:04,950
and I said Hello guys,

1406
00:53:04,950 --> 00:53:08,489
welcome to my keynote.
This isn't that.

1407
00:53:08,489 --> 00:53:10,920
Some of y'all probably,

1408
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,359
you know, X, Y and
Z, sum of Gallup.

1409
00:53:12,359 --> 00:53:13,559
I'll be like, oops,

1410
00:53:13,559 --> 00:53:15,735
not all of us
identify as Guys.

1411
00:53:15,735 --> 00:53:18,029
Can you be more inclusive?

1412
00:53:18,029 --> 00:53:20,069
Or say someone says
something maybe

1413
00:53:20,069 --> 00:53:21,929
insensitive around,

1414
00:53:21,929 --> 00:53:24,300
you know, indigeneity,
you know,

1415
00:53:24,300 --> 00:53:25,680
and says something
like, oh yeah,

1416
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:27,450
my spirit animal is a swirl

1417
00:53:27,450 --> 00:53:30,300
like Ouch, like
spare animals.

1418
00:53:30,300 --> 00:53:30,869
It's actually kind of

1419
00:53:30,869 --> 00:53:32,550
appropriative
because you're not

1420
00:53:32,550 --> 00:53:33,779
really indigenous
and you're not

1421
00:53:33,779 --> 00:53:35,145
really, you know,

1422
00:53:35,145 --> 00:53:37,109
I don't think there was

1423
00:53:37,109 --> 00:53:39,204
a connection to land or

1424
00:53:39,204 --> 00:53:39,989
spirit in order for you to

1425
00:53:39,989 --> 00:53:40,979
get this animal published.

1426
00:53:40,979 --> 00:53:42,525
Looked it up online
on Pottermore.

1427
00:53:42,525 --> 00:53:44,879
Who knows, right?
So, whoops,

1428
00:53:44,879 --> 00:53:45,899
an ouch is a great way.

1429
00:53:45,899 --> 00:53:49,229
Maybe say something
insensitive about women,

1430
00:53:49,229 --> 00:53:53,249
you know, like those
here, these jokes ever.

1431
00:53:53,249 --> 00:53:54,869
That means

1432
00:53:54,869 --> 00:53:56,565
I'm somewhat of myself
by great people.

1433
00:53:56,565 --> 00:53:57,899
But I just easily
think of, you know,

1434
00:53:57,899 --> 00:54:00,240
like that's what she
said jokes or, you know,

1435
00:54:00,240 --> 00:54:01,529
very, you know, just

1436
00:54:01,529 --> 00:54:03,525
like massaging
is the comments.

1437
00:54:03,525 --> 00:54:05,684
Alright. I'll say like

1438
00:54:05,684 --> 00:54:07,830
someone who's male
identify calls me sweetie,

1439
00:54:07,830 --> 00:54:09,705
I'm like, oops, Mrs. fine.

1440
00:54:09,705 --> 00:54:11,505
You know, I mean, like
we can like say like,

1441
00:54:11,505 --> 00:54:13,094
don't try it.
Let's move on.

1442
00:54:13,094 --> 00:54:14,984
And it's a way to like say,

1443
00:54:14,984 --> 00:54:17,385
don't do it. And
let's keep going.

1444
00:54:17,385 --> 00:54:18,660
And so, oops, an ouch is

1445
00:54:18,660 --> 00:54:21,464
a really great way for,

1446
00:54:21,464 --> 00:54:22,649
again, due to acknowledge

1447
00:54:22,649 --> 00:54:24,105
maybe people's needs.

1448
00:54:24,105 --> 00:54:26,264
Boundary's being cross
without being like,

1449
00:54:26,264 --> 00:54:28,350
oh my God, I'm so sorry,
please forgive me.

1450
00:54:28,350 --> 00:54:29,745
I'm really trying so hard

1451
00:54:29,745 --> 00:54:31,049
to get your pronouns right.

1452
00:54:31,049 --> 00:54:32,130
I really, I work so

1453
00:54:32,130 --> 00:54:33,630
hard and I had
these neighbors and

1454
00:54:33,630 --> 00:54:34,950
people in my
life and I know

1455
00:54:34,950 --> 00:54:36,524
Randy board and oh my God,

1456
00:54:36,524 --> 00:54:37,784
you know, like stop.

1457
00:54:37,784 --> 00:54:39,899
Please stop. You're
making it way worse.

1458
00:54:39,899 --> 00:54:40,889
You're making it way more

1459
00:54:40,889 --> 00:54:42,119
complicated than it needs

1460
00:54:42,119 --> 00:54:44,399
to be if you mess
up, mess up,

1461
00:54:44,399 --> 00:54:45,779
correct yourself
or mess that,

1462
00:54:45,779 --> 00:54:47,789
talk to me after like, we

1463
00:54:47,789 --> 00:54:50,115
don't have to
always heart on,

1464
00:54:50,115 --> 00:54:52,020
you know, we don't always

1465
00:54:52,020 --> 00:54:53,865
at the heart on people
who are different,

1466
00:54:53,865 --> 00:54:55,170
you know, by being like,

1467
00:54:55,170 --> 00:54:56,459
I'm so sorry that
your business

1468
00:54:56,459 --> 00:54:57,599
say I'm so sorry
that your two

1469
00:54:57,599 --> 00:54:58,349
different for me to

1470
00:54:58,349 --> 00:55:00,120
comprehend versus
being like,

1471
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,030
oh my that I'll be
better, period.

1472
00:55:03,030 --> 00:55:04,799
So you're going
to want to talk

1473
00:55:04,799 --> 00:55:07,830
about pronouns every day.

1474
00:55:07,830 --> 00:55:10,290
Because like I said,
pronoun change everyday.

1475
00:55:10,290 --> 00:55:11,550
I believe, you know,

1476
00:55:11,550 --> 00:55:13,949
we talk about the
alphabet group,

1477
00:55:13,949 --> 00:55:16,679
LGBTQ IA plus two spirit

1478
00:55:16,679 --> 00:55:18,989
to S all AS a gender,

1479
00:55:18,989 --> 00:55:20,520
a sexual, all of that.

1480
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:21,644
But we tend to leave out

1481
00:55:21,644 --> 00:55:23,580
a very important letter

1482
00:55:23,580 --> 00:55:25,125
I feel like in
the alphabet,

1483
00:55:25,125 --> 00:55:27,345
in that is the other
cue for questioning.

1484
00:55:27,345 --> 00:55:29,115
I think it is very,

1485
00:55:29,115 --> 00:55:30,780
we need to, as, you know,

1486
00:55:30,780 --> 00:55:32,505
as innovative educator,

1487
00:55:32,505 --> 00:55:35,714
we need to start welcoming
people being in a

1488
00:55:35,714 --> 00:55:39,404
questionable or in
a limbo or in a,

1489
00:55:39,404 --> 00:55:41,069
you know, I'm not
quite sure they are.

1490
00:55:41,069 --> 00:55:42,855
I'm still figuring
it out phase.

1491
00:55:42,855 --> 00:55:44,130
I think a lot of
times when it comes

1492
00:55:44,130 --> 00:55:46,035
to especially transgenes,

1493
00:55:46,035 --> 00:55:48,300
When you especially when I

1494
00:55:48,300 --> 00:55:49,289
disclose that I was take

1495
00:55:49,289 --> 00:55:50,879
given hormone
replacement therapy,

1496
00:55:50,879 --> 00:55:52,980
I got so many questions
about, you know,

1497
00:55:52,980 --> 00:55:54,645
what you know,

1498
00:55:54,645 --> 00:55:55,829
what the end product of my

1499
00:55:55,829 --> 00:55:57,060
transition would look like?

1500
00:55:57,060 --> 00:55:59,219
What am I going to
get done surgically?

1501
00:55:59,219 --> 00:56:01,320
You know, what
is a wave can

1502
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,389
change your name to
wear all these things,

1503
00:56:03,389 --> 00:56:04,935
all these things that
we've formulated

1504
00:56:04,935 --> 00:56:06,869
around being
trans and queer,

1505
00:56:06,869 --> 00:56:09,059
like, oh, if you're
changing must be,

1506
00:56:09,059 --> 00:56:10,814
you must hate the
body you're in.

1507
00:56:10,814 --> 00:56:12,420
You must want to,

1508
00:56:12,420 --> 00:56:13,589
you know, you
must want to get

1509
00:56:13,589 --> 00:56:14,894
rid of that strong job.

1510
00:56:14,894 --> 00:56:15,960
You know, I mean,
like these are

1511
00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:17,700
our biases that we develop.

1512
00:56:17,700 --> 00:56:19,769
And so I think that,

1513
00:56:19,769 --> 00:56:20,730
you know, we need to

1514
00:56:20,730 --> 00:56:21,839
focus on, you know, what?

1515
00:56:21,839 --> 00:56:25,575
I haven't thought about
that at all actually.

1516
00:56:25,575 --> 00:56:27,299
And I probably won't
think about it for

1517
00:56:27,299 --> 00:56:29,800
a minute or, you know.

1518
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,210
I found, you know,

1519
00:56:32,210 --> 00:56:33,455
like I have found.

1520
00:56:33,455 --> 00:56:37,939
So just, I think
it's so amazing,

1521
00:56:37,939 --> 00:56:40,280
especially with youth who,

1522
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,350
when I bring up pronouns
and a lot of them,

1523
00:56:42,350 --> 00:56:43,399
they get it and they,

1524
00:56:43,399 --> 00:56:45,215
they answer it either.

1525
00:56:45,215 --> 00:56:46,429
I don't know what they are.

1526
00:56:46,429 --> 00:56:47,839
I don't care what
you call me.

1527
00:56:47,839 --> 00:56:50,359
I think that is
so beautiful.

1528
00:56:50,359 --> 00:56:52,579
And to see like,
oh, you know,

1529
00:56:52,579 --> 00:56:53,780
and then when
people see that

1530
00:56:53,780 --> 00:56:54,935
you'd give them
agency to like,

1531
00:56:54,935 --> 00:56:57,154
oh, well, you know,

1532
00:56:57,154 --> 00:57:00,350
so-and-so, you know,
doesn't get it.

1533
00:57:00,350 --> 00:57:01,609
So it's okay if I don't

1534
00:57:01,609 --> 00:57:03,095
get it sometimes,
you know, it,

1535
00:57:03,095 --> 00:57:04,759
it allows for
more people again

1536
00:57:04,759 --> 00:57:06,740
to be the humans
that we are.

1537
00:57:06,740 --> 00:57:07,970
You know, this is,

1538
00:57:07,970 --> 00:57:09,229
we're in a time and 20-20

1539
00:57:09,229 --> 00:57:11,359
where queer and trans

1540
00:57:11,359 --> 00:57:13,649
people time
visibility high.

1541
00:57:13,649 --> 00:57:15,990
And we want, because we see

1542
00:57:15,990 --> 00:57:18,494
so much in representation,

1543
00:57:18,494 --> 00:57:19,830
in the literal
representation

1544
00:57:19,830 --> 00:57:20,879
that we see with blacking

1545
00:57:20,879 --> 00:57:23,010
trans folks. We
rely on that.

1546
00:57:23,010 --> 00:57:24,869
Sometimes I have
I can't tell you

1547
00:57:24,869 --> 00:57:26,010
how many questions
I get about

1548
00:57:26,010 --> 00:57:27,840
pose or have I seen it?

1549
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:31,770
Can I do it? And it's
like I happened yes.

1550
00:57:31,770 --> 00:57:33,419
I happen to perform
and barroom,

1551
00:57:33,419 --> 00:57:35,129
but not every black
trans person,

1552
00:57:35,129 --> 00:57:36,449
not every trans person

1553
00:57:36,449 --> 00:57:37,950
is connected to barroom.

1554
00:57:37,950 --> 00:57:40,259
Every trans person wants
to be a performer.

1555
00:57:40,259 --> 00:57:42,270
Not every trans person
takes hormones.

1556
00:57:42,270 --> 00:57:43,740
Not every trans person,

1557
00:57:43,740 --> 00:57:46,349
you know, is identify
isn't the binary,

1558
00:57:46,349 --> 00:57:47,804
not every trans person,

1559
00:57:47,804 --> 00:57:49,919
you know, that, not every

1560
00:57:49,919 --> 00:57:52,139
black trans
woman, not every.

1561
00:57:52,139 --> 00:57:53,340
Just so we have to always

1562
00:57:53,340 --> 00:57:55,679
just stop going straight to

1563
00:57:55,679 --> 00:58:00,795
the the end result in
trust, the process.

1564
00:58:00,795 --> 00:58:04,664
And so, you know,
and pronouns, again,

1565
00:58:04,664 --> 00:58:06,329
they go well
beyond just she,

1566
00:58:06,329 --> 00:58:08,129
her, you know, she
hierarchy him.

1567
00:58:08,129 --> 00:58:09,719
They then, you know,

1568
00:58:09,719 --> 00:58:11,129
there are people who create

1569
00:58:11,129 --> 00:58:14,069
their own pronouns and
say z, z is there.

1570
00:58:14,069 --> 00:58:15,690
You know, when I was

1571
00:58:15,690 --> 00:58:18,179
working with my
kiddos, you know,

1572
00:58:18,179 --> 00:58:21,014
especially if you're
working with an age

1573
00:58:21,014 --> 00:58:22,560
that is like also I can

1574
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,044
call myself chicken nugget.

1575
00:58:24,044 --> 00:58:25,485
I can call myself,
will conduct

1576
00:58:25,485 --> 00:58:26,609
myself. Pokemon Monster.

1577
00:58:26,609 --> 00:58:27,299
I'm like, you know what,

1578
00:58:27,299 --> 00:58:28,649
you can call yourself
whatever you want.

1579
00:58:28,649 --> 00:58:29,909
Honestly. Like if you

1580
00:58:29,909 --> 00:58:30,944
want to be caught
chicken nugget,

1581
00:58:30,944 --> 00:58:32,580
I'm going to literally
call you that.

1582
00:58:32,580 --> 00:58:33,449
If you want to be caught,

1583
00:58:33,449 --> 00:58:35,070
we'll kinda, I'm going
to call you that.

1584
00:58:35,070 --> 00:58:37,110
If you want to be
pokemon master,

1585
00:58:37,110 --> 00:58:38,159
I'm going to call that.

1586
00:58:38,159 --> 00:58:39,809
I'm, I'm going
to respect you.

1587
00:58:39,809 --> 00:58:41,009
I'm not going to
interject if you want

1588
00:58:41,009 --> 00:58:42,794
to be caught itself.

1589
00:58:42,794 --> 00:58:44,250
I'm going to tell
you that I'm not

1590
00:58:44,250 --> 00:58:45,690
going to put my
personal feelings

1591
00:58:45,690 --> 00:58:47,070
in the way of your needs

1592
00:58:47,070 --> 00:58:48,554
as a student, you know,

1593
00:58:48,554 --> 00:58:50,579
like this is not it's not

1594
00:58:50,579 --> 00:58:52,949
realistic to me to
ask for someone,

1595
00:58:52,949 --> 00:58:55,484
ask for someone's pronoun
and then be like,

1596
00:58:55,484 --> 00:58:56,894
oh, I can't follow that.

1597
00:58:56,894 --> 00:58:58,680
That's like I can't
remember that.

1598
00:58:58,680 --> 00:58:59,954
Oh, I can't do that.

1599
00:58:59,954 --> 00:59:01,409
I know I asked you
how to do this,

1600
00:59:01,409 --> 00:59:03,119
but I'm not really
going to put

1601
00:59:03,119 --> 00:59:04,845
in the effort
to do it right?

1602
00:59:04,845 --> 00:59:06,299
And so when it
comes to again,

1603
00:59:06,299 --> 00:59:07,950
like reclamation,
like a lot of folks,

1604
00:59:07,950 --> 00:59:09,210
especially queer
folks, you know,

1605
00:59:09,210 --> 00:59:10,290
we claim a lot
of words that

1606
00:59:10,290 --> 00:59:11,400
are deeply rooted in

1607
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:13,964
colonization and racism
in trans phobia.

1608
00:59:13,964 --> 00:59:16,230
I have friends
that use itself.

1609
00:59:16,230 --> 00:59:18,330
I have friends that
call themselves bitch.

1610
00:59:18,330 --> 00:59:20,494
No, that call themselves
thought, you know,

1611
00:59:20,494 --> 00:59:23,939
that how themselves Fof
a finger, you know,

1612
00:59:23,939 --> 00:59:25,589
which is like a slur in

1613
00:59:25,589 --> 00:59:27,360
a lot of API
communities, you know,

1614
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:30,810
but it's a reclamation
is like this.

1615
00:59:30,810 --> 00:59:32,519
There's so many, you know,

1616
00:59:32,519 --> 00:59:34,110
and then I can indigeneity.

1617
00:59:34,110 --> 00:59:36,705
You know, a lot of our
indigenous communities

1618
00:59:36,705 --> 00:59:38,490
have to spirit in India.

1619
00:59:38,490 --> 00:59:41,609
There's the hydra
in parts of Latin.

1620
00:59:41,609 --> 00:59:43,889
Next, culture, there's
the Shae, you know?

1621
00:59:43,889 --> 00:59:46,590
So again, all of
this is examples of

1622
00:59:46,590 --> 00:59:51,044
the many different
interpretations of folks.

1623
00:59:51,044 --> 00:59:52,229
I, you, she, her goddess.

1624
00:59:52,229 --> 00:59:53,924
I told you, I, I've,

1625
00:59:53,924 --> 00:59:57,405
I've connected mostly
to mythology and magic.

1626
00:59:57,405 --> 00:59:58,590
And which URI and

1627
00:59:58,590 --> 01:00:00,600
so goddess is part
of my program.

1628
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:02,880
Identify as someone who

1629
01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:04,259
bend between the realms

1630
01:00:04,259 --> 01:00:05,639
of the natural in
the spiritual.

1631
01:00:05,639 --> 01:00:07,004
Because I have that

1632
01:00:07,004 --> 01:00:08,744
I hadn't masculine
and feminine.

1633
01:00:08,744 --> 01:00:10,575
You know, again, not

1634
01:00:10,575 --> 01:00:13,079
every person identifies
this way, but people,

1635
01:00:13,079 --> 01:00:15,194
people have their
reasons and so

1636
01:00:15,194 --> 01:00:16,559
don't just think people are

1637
01:00:16,559 --> 01:00:18,150
doing pronouns to like,

1638
01:00:18,150 --> 01:00:20,250
throw you off or be
personally, you know,

1639
01:00:20,250 --> 01:00:24,135
like or be, you
know, intentionally.

1640
01:00:24,135 --> 01:00:26,924
Not confusing cuz I
don't wanna put that on,

1641
01:00:26,924 --> 01:00:29,790
but intentionally
difficult around this

1642
01:00:29,790 --> 01:00:31,260
is because the
probably favorite the

1643
01:00:31,260 --> 01:00:32,730
fuck out occurs by the way.

1644
01:00:32,730 --> 01:00:34,290
So just know
that I'm there,

1645
01:00:34,290 --> 01:00:35,100
but they're
probably figured it

1646
01:00:35,100 --> 01:00:36,750
out and let them
figure it out.

1647
01:00:36,750 --> 01:00:39,794
Questioning again is a
very valid identity.

1648
01:00:39,794 --> 01:00:42,835
I asked pronouns everyday.

1649
01:00:42,835 --> 01:00:44,300
At the beginning
of my class.

1650
01:00:44,300 --> 01:00:46,595
I have an opening
circle where I ask,

1651
01:00:46,595 --> 01:00:48,470
even if we've
been in class for

1652
01:00:48,470 --> 01:00:50,389
a whole year, what
are your pronouns?

1653
01:00:50,389 --> 01:00:52,130
What are my pronouns like?

1654
01:00:52,130 --> 01:00:55,114
Again, because excites
a culture that people

1655
01:00:55,114 --> 01:00:57,139
aren't trying
to assume what

1656
01:00:57,139 --> 01:00:59,150
we see is the agenda
that we're proceeding,

1657
01:00:59,150 --> 01:01:00,289
but we're asking getting

1658
01:01:00,289 --> 01:01:01,849
people agency to

1659
01:01:01,849 --> 01:01:04,469
define themselves
for themselves.

1660
01:01:04,540 --> 01:01:10,999
What EBREAK short-term.

1661
01:01:10,999 --> 01:01:12,905
Jamie, how am I
doing on time?

1662
01:01:12,905 --> 01:01:18,390
I got about 1012
minutes left.

1663
01:01:18,790 --> 01:01:21,560
I don't blinds well,

1664
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,700
SIMD So just going alone.

1665
01:01:24,700 --> 01:01:30,609
Thank you. Accessibility.

1666
01:01:31,550 --> 01:01:34,155
Everyone has different
access needs.

1667
01:01:34,155 --> 01:01:36,749
Accessibility. This is

1668
01:01:36,749 --> 01:01:39,824
where intersectionality
comes in.

1669
01:01:39,824 --> 01:01:40,769
Because I know I

1670
01:01:40,769 --> 01:01:41,760
started out this
presentation

1671
01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:43,650
saying how to
create, you know,

1672
01:01:43,650 --> 01:01:47,400
a gender inclusive,

1673
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:49,630
right? Learning
environment.

1674
01:01:50,210 --> 01:01:52,784
In all these tools, again,

1675
01:01:52,784 --> 01:01:54,719
you can correlate them

1676
01:01:54,719 --> 01:01:58,005
really with anything
beyond just gender.

1677
01:01:58,005 --> 01:02:00,330
Disability,
justice, I think is

1678
01:02:00,330 --> 01:02:01,950
a really, really, really,

1679
01:02:01,950 --> 01:02:04,799
really big key
element to having

1680
01:02:04,799 --> 01:02:06,449
a successful
classroom as well

1681
01:02:06,449 --> 01:02:09,750
as in gender
inclusive classroom.

1682
01:02:09,750 --> 01:02:13,170
Because there
are a plethora

1683
01:02:13,170 --> 01:02:15,300
of disabilities that you

1684
01:02:15,300 --> 01:02:17,310
can see with your eye.

1685
01:02:17,310 --> 01:02:18,840
And there's again
with gender,

1686
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,684
their disability
that you can't see.

1687
01:02:20,684 --> 01:02:22,545
We can't see someone

1688
01:02:22,545 --> 01:02:27,599
with a auto-immune disease.

1689
01:02:27,599 --> 01:02:29,954
We can't see, you know,

1690
01:02:29,954 --> 01:02:32,805
what's going on
in people's minds

1691
01:02:32,805 --> 01:02:34,799
as they're talking
to us and we're

1692
01:02:34,799 --> 01:02:36,104
not mind readers, right?

1693
01:02:36,104 --> 01:02:39,149
We can't, we don't
know that, you know,

1694
01:02:39,149 --> 01:02:40,949
this person, you know,

1695
01:02:40,949 --> 01:02:42,660
is we don't know, right.

1696
01:02:42,660 --> 01:02:43,889
And so asking What

1697
01:02:43,889 --> 01:02:45,150
are your
accessibility needs?

1698
01:02:45,150 --> 01:02:46,499
So as well as how do

1699
01:02:46,499 --> 01:02:48,779
I acknowledge you
and respect you?

1700
01:02:48,779 --> 01:02:51,989
Also, what are you
going to meet again

1701
01:02:51,989 --> 01:02:53,429
to get through the day

1702
01:02:53,429 --> 01:02:55,274
or the course,
The et cetera.

1703
01:02:55,274 --> 01:02:57,059
You know, access needs can

1704
01:02:57,059 --> 01:02:58,650
be I'm operating on
two hours of sleep,

1705
01:02:58,650 --> 01:03:00,810
so I may seem a
little out of it,

1706
01:03:00,810 --> 01:03:02,969
but I'm trying
to be President.

1707
01:03:02,969 --> 01:03:05,460
Or I got denied
unemployment

1708
01:03:05,460 --> 01:03:06,660
again and it's stressing me

1709
01:03:06,660 --> 01:03:08,250
the fuck out, you know.

1710
01:03:08,250 --> 01:03:09,614
And so excuse me.

1711
01:03:09,614 --> 01:03:11,010
If I might leave

1712
01:03:11,010 --> 01:03:12,719
early or excuse me
if a call comes

1713
01:03:12,719 --> 01:03:14,399
up and I have to get it or

1714
01:03:14,399 --> 01:03:15,870
I'm taking care of
a family member.

1715
01:03:15,870 --> 01:03:17,070
I was just left
the hospital.

1716
01:03:17,070 --> 01:03:18,239
So my mind is all over

1717
01:03:18,239 --> 01:03:20,159
the place this week or,

1718
01:03:20,159 --> 01:03:21,885
you know, I'm in a
new environment,

1719
01:03:21,885 --> 01:03:22,979
I mean a new classroom,

1720
01:03:22,979 --> 01:03:24,239
I'm in a new whatever and

1721
01:03:24,239 --> 01:03:25,530
I might come off very shy,

1722
01:03:25,530 --> 01:03:27,210
but maybe I'll
warm up or I'm

1723
01:03:27,210 --> 01:03:29,579
a shy person or
I speak softly.

1724
01:03:29,579 --> 01:03:31,110
So you might have to.

1725
01:03:31,110 --> 01:03:32,970
Either listen or
tell me to speak

1726
01:03:32,970 --> 01:03:35,430
at or you know,
again, I'm fidgety,

1727
01:03:35,430 --> 01:03:38,220
I'm nervous or
my bones hurt

1728
01:03:38,220 --> 01:03:40,050
because I

1729
01:03:40,050 --> 01:03:41,940
have one leg that's
longer than the other.

1730
01:03:41,940 --> 01:03:43,260
You know, you have to

1731
01:03:43,260 --> 01:03:45,719
ask because we
especially when it

1732
01:03:45,719 --> 01:03:47,729
comes to when it

1733
01:03:47,729 --> 01:03:48,840
comes up when it comes to

1734
01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:49,979
showing up for school,

1735
01:03:49,979 --> 01:03:52,290
were expected to show
up and didn't dislike,

1736
01:03:52,290 --> 01:03:53,729
push everything aside,

1737
01:03:53,729 --> 01:03:54,585
get through the course.

1738
01:03:54,585 --> 01:03:56,774
If the material get
through the day.

1739
01:03:56,774 --> 01:03:58,755
With work, clock in,

1740
01:03:58,755 --> 01:04:00,570
clock out, customer service

1741
01:04:00,570 --> 01:04:02,234
get to the word of the day.

1742
01:04:02,234 --> 01:04:04,005
But like what would happen?

1743
01:04:04,005 --> 01:04:06,480
What would think
about going to

1744
01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:07,860
school and going to

1745
01:04:07,860 --> 01:04:09,525
school now, going to work?

1746
01:04:09,525 --> 01:04:11,159
Think about what it
would be like if

1747
01:04:11,159 --> 01:04:12,584
your supervisors

1748
01:04:12,584 --> 01:04:15,729
asked you, How are
you doing today?

1749
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:19,080
What do you need? Do
you have it all today?

1750
01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:20,549
Okay, cool. Or what

1751
01:04:20,549 --> 01:04:21,719
are you gonna need
from me today?

1752
01:04:21,719 --> 01:04:23,714
Or, you know, like imagine,

1753
01:04:23,714 --> 01:04:27,430
imagine the amount of

1754
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:30,690
memes you as an
educator will be

1755
01:04:30,690 --> 01:04:32,040
able to literally fear

1756
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:33,345
and see something we
don't have needs.

1757
01:04:33,345 --> 01:04:35,265
You'll sometimes go through

1758
01:04:35,265 --> 01:04:36,854
an accessibility process
if people just like,

1759
01:04:36,854 --> 01:04:38,925
I'm just tired, you know,

1760
01:04:38,925 --> 01:04:40,814
but like I've heard

1761
01:04:40,814 --> 01:04:41,820
folks I've heard especially

1762
01:04:41,820 --> 01:04:43,349
my youth disclose like,

1763
01:04:43,349 --> 01:04:45,390
hey, you know, like I'm

1764
01:04:45,390 --> 01:04:47,100
feeling depressed today.

1765
01:04:47,100 --> 01:04:48,974
I've never felt this before

1766
01:04:48,974 --> 01:04:50,610
and I don't know
what's going on.

1767
01:04:50,610 --> 01:04:53,084
You know, like you
you'd be like, whoa,

1768
01:04:53,084 --> 01:04:55,035
like this person,
it's like it's

1769
01:04:55,035 --> 01:04:57,330
out of, out of their
body right now.

1770
01:04:57,330 --> 01:04:58,799
You know, like you, you

1771
01:04:58,799 --> 01:05:00,719
learn so much, you
know, and again,

1772
01:05:00,719 --> 01:05:01,965
when you ask this
at the top of

1773
01:05:01,965 --> 01:05:03,614
every day in class,

1774
01:05:03,614 --> 01:05:05,834
people get used to
talking to you.

1775
01:05:05,834 --> 01:05:08,054
People get used to
sharing with you.

1776
01:05:08,054 --> 01:05:08,610
Again,

1777
01:05:08,610 --> 01:05:10,140
their access needs,
the personal needs.

1778
01:05:10,140 --> 01:05:12,210
People get used
to coming to you

1779
01:05:12,210 --> 01:05:14,910
with help for challenges.

1780
01:05:14,910 --> 01:05:17,520
I've seen, I've again as

1781
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:18,930
a black trans woman

1782
01:05:18,930 --> 01:05:21,015
entering the public
school system.

1783
01:05:21,015 --> 01:05:23,009
And you can
imagine how many,

1784
01:05:23,009 --> 01:05:26,624
you know, turned up
noses, how many line,

1785
01:05:26,624 --> 01:05:28,079
what the factor we doing

1786
01:05:28,079 --> 01:05:30,734
pronouns for I'm
a girl obviously,

1787
01:05:30,734 --> 01:05:32,550
don't you see me or,

1788
01:05:32,550 --> 01:05:34,365
you know, or, you
know, accessibility.

1789
01:05:34,365 --> 01:05:36,404
I'm bored. I don't wanna
be here, you know?

1790
01:05:36,404 --> 01:05:38,040
But the more you develop

1791
01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:39,720
this and do it
in a mixture,

1792
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:42,269
you as an educator saying

1793
01:05:42,269 --> 01:05:43,410
we're not going to
get through the day

1794
01:05:43,410 --> 01:05:44,985
unless we agree, like,

1795
01:05:44,985 --> 01:05:46,199
I can't do my job if

1796
01:05:46,199 --> 01:05:47,669
we can't agree
to respect each

1797
01:05:47,669 --> 01:05:48,900
other while we're
listening for each of

1798
01:05:48,900 --> 01:05:51,000
those pronouns and
accessibility.

1799
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:53,070
And so yeah, that's
Tibet re-class.

1800
01:05:53,070 --> 01:05:54,630
I start off in a circle.

1801
01:05:54,630 --> 01:05:58,770
I, you can, I think as
educators, you know,

1802
01:05:58,770 --> 01:06:00,870
restructuring the
learning environment as

1803
01:06:00,870 --> 01:06:01,320
far as like

1804
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,135
the physical space
is also important.

1805
01:06:03,135 --> 01:06:04,950
You know, sitting
with everyone facing

1806
01:06:04,950 --> 01:06:07,529
you as the teacher upfront,

1807
01:06:07,529 --> 01:06:09,030
everyone facing used a very

1808
01:06:09,030 --> 01:06:10,859
authoritarian approach.

1809
01:06:10,859 --> 01:06:12,299
So I like to start
off with circles

1810
01:06:12,299 --> 01:06:13,379
where we can all
see each other.

1811
01:06:13,379 --> 01:06:15,120
We can all sit
alongside each other.

1812
01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:17,069
We're on the same level.

1813
01:06:17,069 --> 01:06:19,859
I share what's
really on my mind.

1814
01:06:19,859 --> 01:06:21,060
I talk to every student

1815
01:06:21,060 --> 01:06:22,049
like they're the same age,

1816
01:06:22,049 --> 01:06:24,120
whether it's seven
years old to adults.

1817
01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:25,319
I don't talk about obvious

1818
01:06:25,319 --> 01:06:26,489
things in those
varying ages,

1819
01:06:26,489 --> 01:06:29,325
but I'm just like
yo Second grade,

1820
01:06:29,325 --> 01:06:30,720
I'm not having a good day

1821
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:32,279
in some money job to

1822
01:06:32,279 --> 01:06:36,149
be extra tend to because
I might fast, like.

1823
01:06:36,149 --> 01:06:37,169
You as an educator

1824
01:06:37,169 --> 01:06:37,920
have that right to be like,

1825
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:40,499
you know what, I might
not have it all today.

1826
01:06:40,499 --> 01:06:43,424
You might have to
do this without me.

1827
01:06:43,424 --> 01:06:45,030
And then when you do this,

1828
01:06:45,030 --> 01:06:46,290
when you do these
routines of

1829
01:06:46,290 --> 01:06:48,089
pronouns, accessibility
your circle,

1830
01:06:48,089 --> 01:06:49,679
you're everything
your students will

1831
01:06:49,679 --> 01:06:51,374
be able to carry on
the class for you,

1832
01:06:51,374 --> 01:06:52,650
for when you need,

1833
01:06:52,650 --> 01:06:54,524
for, when you have an
accessibility need.

1834
01:06:54,524 --> 01:06:56,324
You know, wanting
to like, ooh,

1835
01:06:56,324 --> 01:06:58,005
like because again,
we're all human.

1836
01:06:58,005 --> 01:06:59,625
I don't know everything.

1837
01:06:59,625 --> 01:07:00,674
I don't have good

1838
01:07:00,674 --> 01:07:02,384
teaching days
every single day.

1839
01:07:02,384 --> 01:07:04,349
But when I don't have
my teaching days,

1840
01:07:04,349 --> 01:07:06,585
I can make that
known to the class.

1841
01:07:06,585 --> 01:07:09,300
And either students, you
know, like OK. Well,

1842
01:07:09,300 --> 01:07:11,910
let's let's let's
pick up where Mr.

1843
01:07:11,910 --> 01:07:15,060
Randy can or let's
identify my key.

1844
01:07:15,060 --> 01:07:17,039
Like, look, you don't
have to do this part

1845
01:07:17,039 --> 01:07:20,475
because I'm mouse
clicking out real quick.

1846
01:07:20,475 --> 01:07:22,514
You know, they're,
they're, it's okay.

1847
01:07:22,514 --> 01:07:23,670
I think it's okay for

1848
01:07:23,670 --> 01:07:25,230
teachers to have
their moments.

1849
01:07:25,230 --> 01:07:27,464
As long as again, we're,

1850
01:07:27,464 --> 01:07:29,804
you know, just
be transparent

1851
01:07:29,804 --> 01:07:31,259
and just being honest.

1852
01:07:31,259 --> 01:07:32,700
And I found two,

1853
01:07:32,700 --> 01:07:34,560
like especially working
with young people.

1854
01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:35,790
Young people know,

1855
01:07:35,790 --> 01:07:37,440
especially when
an adult does it.

1856
01:07:37,440 --> 01:07:39,240
No one.

1857
01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:41,100
What's going on doesn't

1858
01:07:41,100 --> 01:07:42,300
have a hand on the class,

1859
01:07:42,300 --> 01:07:43,934
doesn't know what
they're teaching,

1860
01:07:43,934 --> 01:07:45,810
doesn't know what
they're teaching.

1861
01:07:45,810 --> 01:07:47,174
You know, does it?

1862
01:07:47,174 --> 01:07:48,914
You know, your students
will sense it.

1863
01:07:48,914 --> 01:07:50,444
They know they
smell the sweat,

1864
01:07:50,444 --> 01:07:52,664
is smell the fear.
They smell everything.

1865
01:07:52,664 --> 01:07:54,194
Rahm issue, they know it.

1866
01:07:54,194 --> 01:07:55,560
But if you can just be

1867
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:57,524
Eisenberg yet, like
I'll have it today.

1868
01:07:57,524 --> 01:07:59,820
I didn't prepare
because I was

1869
01:07:59,820 --> 01:08:01,650
kicking it first day

1870
01:08:01,650 --> 01:08:02,760
at appointee and
I don't know,

1871
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:04,469
like, you can
have that we can

1872
01:08:04,469 --> 01:08:06,899
talk real with are
in our classrooms.

1873
01:08:06,899 --> 01:08:08,985
You know, I don't want
to be a teacher where

1874
01:08:08,985 --> 01:08:11,759
my students can only
come to me, you know,

1875
01:08:11,759 --> 01:08:12,929
when things are going good

1876
01:08:12,929 --> 01:08:14,010
for them, you know,

1877
01:08:14,010 --> 01:08:15,240
or when they're
doing, you know,

1878
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:18,194
those academic like
I got a good grade.

1879
01:08:18,194 --> 01:08:20,369
I mean, like I went
I want is I want to

1880
01:08:20,369 --> 01:08:21,419
be engaged with

1881
01:08:21,419 --> 01:08:22,739
my students on
their worst day.

1882
01:08:22,739 --> 01:08:23,819
Some of them are
getting me on

1883
01:08:23,819 --> 01:08:25,979
my worst days because
again, it's real.

1884
01:08:25,979 --> 01:08:27,870
We tend to go through

1885
01:08:27,870 --> 01:08:29,865
life and try to
be emotionless.

1886
01:08:29,865 --> 01:08:31,620
Like don't bring
your emotions

1887
01:08:31,620 --> 01:08:32,669
at work is too much.

1888
01:08:32,669 --> 01:08:34,319
Don't bring your emotions.
Schools too much

1889
01:08:34,319 --> 01:08:36,105
don't bring your needs,
and this is too much.

1890
01:08:36,105 --> 01:08:38,369
I'm sure all of us have
been told that right.

1891
01:08:38,369 --> 01:08:40,229
But what if we
made it a point?

1892
01:08:40,229 --> 01:08:41,909
Acknowledge our knee and

1893
01:08:41,909 --> 01:08:44,715
center them and
honor them in.

1894
01:08:44,715 --> 01:08:47,145
And again, cultivate
that culture.

1895
01:08:47,145 --> 01:08:48,390
I have a little bit of time

1896
01:08:48,390 --> 01:08:49,350
before we go
into Q and a. I

1897
01:08:49,350 --> 01:08:50,370
promise there'll
be questions

1898
01:08:50,370 --> 01:08:51,854
when you leave
plenty of time.

1899
01:08:51,854 --> 01:08:54,240
I just got my five-minute
mark and there

1900
01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:56,490
should be maybe 15
minutes for questions.

1901
01:08:56,490 --> 01:08:57,960
We're going to pick
all the questions.

1902
01:08:57,960 --> 01:08:59,940
And I have a few
slides left.

1903
01:08:59,940 --> 01:09:06,015
So for you, when it
comes to educators,

1904
01:09:06,015 --> 01:09:07,260
wanted to do this work,

1905
01:09:07,260 --> 01:09:10,064
wanted to cultivate
a gender inclusive,

1906
01:09:10,064 --> 01:09:12,510
all inclusive
learning environment.

1907
01:09:12,510 --> 01:09:14,310
Here's some
things to avoid,

1908
01:09:14,310 --> 01:09:16,049
some things to embrace.

1909
01:09:16,049 --> 01:09:18,345
I want you to avoid
centering yourself,

1910
01:09:18,345 --> 01:09:19,950
especially if you do not

1911
01:09:19,950 --> 01:09:21,209
identify with
the communities

1912
01:09:21,209 --> 01:09:23,204
that you're engaging with.

1913
01:09:23,204 --> 01:09:25,814
I don't know the makeup of

1914
01:09:25,814 --> 01:09:29,789
the total, you know,

1915
01:09:29,789 --> 01:09:32,069
Department of innovative

1916
01:09:32,069 --> 01:09:35,354
academic academic
innovation

1917
01:09:35,354 --> 01:09:37,724
back into so maybe

1918
01:09:37,724 --> 01:09:40,049
that most of you
may be right in.

1919
01:09:40,049 --> 01:09:42,300
So I hope that you're
not sending yourself,

1920
01:09:42,300 --> 01:09:43,830
especially when
you're working with

1921
01:09:43,830 --> 01:09:46,380
majority black and
brown communities,

1922
01:09:46,380 --> 01:09:49,814
working with majority
queer POC communities.

1923
01:09:49,814 --> 01:09:52,860
Avoid gendered language.

1924
01:09:52,860 --> 01:09:55,049
Avoid addressing
everyone as guys.

1925
01:09:55,049 --> 01:09:56,879
Do. Avoid saying man after

1926
01:09:56,879 --> 01:10:00,195
every freaking sentence.
Avoid saying bro.

1927
01:10:00,195 --> 01:10:03,329
And I like to address
people as students.

1928
01:10:03,329 --> 01:10:06,434
Folks, Beautiful
People, Hello dancers.

1929
01:10:06,434 --> 01:10:10,409
Hello. Hello Students,
Hello everyone.

1930
01:10:10,409 --> 01:10:13,769
Hello. If you want to
say, ladies gentlemen,

1931
01:10:13,769 --> 01:10:15,480
everyone in between
or outside,

1932
01:10:15,480 --> 01:10:16,979
get creative, be fun.

1933
01:10:16,979 --> 01:10:19,320
But let's avoid
gendered language.

1934
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:20,519
If you, you know,

1935
01:10:20,519 --> 01:10:21,629
people who identifies

1936
01:10:21,629 --> 01:10:22,890
an agenda is
notice that shit.

1937
01:10:22,890 --> 01:10:24,600
And they're like, well,
this person's either

1938
01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:26,819
insensitive or
not woke, right?

1939
01:10:26,819 --> 01:10:28,830
So don't do it

1940
01:10:28,830 --> 01:10:31,455
and stop dividing
groups by gender.

1941
01:10:31,455 --> 01:10:35,490
We can divide people
in small groups and

1942
01:10:35,490 --> 01:10:39,690
so many other ways
besides Fucking gender.

1943
01:10:39,690 --> 01:10:42,150
You can pick region,

1944
01:10:42,150 --> 01:10:44,024
you can pick age,

1945
01:10:44,024 --> 01:10:47,839
you can pick clo
favorite color.

1946
01:10:47,839 --> 01:10:49,939
You can yeah, but stop

1947
01:10:49,939 --> 01:10:52,820
doing boys versus girls,

1948
01:10:52,820 --> 01:10:54,724
guys over here like that.

1949
01:10:54,724 --> 01:10:55,609
You know, it's actually

1950
01:10:55,609 --> 01:10:57,410
proven that, you know,

1951
01:10:57,410 --> 01:11:01,099
gender-based violence
increases when the do

1952
01:11:01,099 --> 01:11:02,959
anything that's guys versus

1953
01:11:02,959 --> 01:11:04,039
girls and boys versus

1954
01:11:04,039 --> 01:11:05,149
girls or men versus women,

1955
01:11:05,149 --> 01:11:09,199
you actually increase
the gender violence

1956
01:11:09,199 --> 01:11:10,894
that goes on in the
world when you do that.

1957
01:11:10,894 --> 01:11:13,400
So let's just stop doing
that as much as I'm

1958
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:15,379
for the culture and

1959
01:11:15,379 --> 01:11:16,804
I'm all about pussy power.

1960
01:11:16,804 --> 01:11:19,610
I'm not going to divide
or set up a moment

1961
01:11:19,610 --> 01:11:20,839
for there to be any type

1962
01:11:20,839 --> 01:11:22,520
of heightened
violence between,

1963
01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:24,259
you know, a defined,

1964
01:11:24,259 --> 01:11:26,254
you know, what I
defined right.

1965
01:11:26,254 --> 01:11:28,314
As men and women, right?

1966
01:11:28,314 --> 01:11:30,224
Let's just stop doing that.

1967
01:11:30,224 --> 01:11:32,280
Let's avoid relying solely

1968
01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:34,049
on representation
for information

1969
01:11:34,049 --> 01:11:35,565
that stop relying solely

1970
01:11:35,565 --> 01:11:37,469
on pose that stop relying

1971
01:11:37,469 --> 01:11:41,624
solely on that one queer
black trans friend,

1972
01:11:41,624 --> 01:11:43,140
friend that we have.

1973
01:11:43,140 --> 01:11:45,975
This where I said Google
is your best friend.

1974
01:11:45,975 --> 01:11:48,464
Like Google, all of
your information.

1975
01:11:48,464 --> 01:11:51,150
You know, we Google
things for so many things

1976
01:11:51,150 --> 01:11:54,734
except trans phobia,
queer phobia.

1977
01:11:54,734 --> 01:11:57,149
Other thing than we
know how to cite

1978
01:11:57,149 --> 01:11:59,909
sources where in an
academic setting,

1979
01:11:59,909 --> 01:12:01,020
you know, when there's

1980
01:12:01,020 --> 01:12:02,399
an article that's clearly

1981
01:12:02,399 --> 01:12:05,535
a blog or that's clearly
not rooted in truth.

1982
01:12:05,535 --> 01:12:07,830
Thank you. So just

1983
01:12:07,830 --> 01:12:11,100
just go go google

1984
01:12:11,100 --> 01:12:12,599
before you go
to your friend.

1985
01:12:12,599 --> 01:12:14,430
Google before you
go to your friend,

1986
01:12:14,430 --> 01:12:17,579
I promise you that
friend will love you so

1987
01:12:17,579 --> 01:12:18,960
much more when you're not

1988
01:12:18,960 --> 01:12:21,030
always going to them
are going like,

1989
01:12:21,030 --> 01:12:22,559
hey, give me the answers to

1990
01:12:22,559 --> 01:12:23,369
your oppression that I'm

1991
01:12:23,369 --> 01:12:25,470
causing you how
backwards that is.

1992
01:12:25,470 --> 01:12:27,750
And then stop assuming
what you know what a,

1993
01:12:27,750 --> 01:12:29,220
what a queer person

1994
01:12:29,220 --> 01:12:31,019
or trans person looks like.

1995
01:12:31,019 --> 01:12:33,479
Just get used
to finding out

1996
01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:35,999
who people are every
day in that moment.

1997
01:12:35,999 --> 01:12:38,459
Ask them, get to
know that person,

1998
01:12:38,459 --> 01:12:39,449
whether it's the
same person or

1999
01:12:39,449 --> 01:12:40,545
routine present you see,

2000
01:12:40,545 --> 01:12:41,880
get to know them
every day, see

2001
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:43,544
what's new about
their life, right?

2002
01:12:43,544 --> 01:12:45,104
So embrace being wrong

2003
01:12:45,104 --> 01:12:46,980
in sitting through
discomfort.

2004
01:12:46,980 --> 01:12:50,954
Embrace. You know,
different types of,

2005
01:12:50,954 --> 01:12:53,069
you know,
generalizing people.

2006
01:12:53,069 --> 01:12:55,499
Extend beyond yourself
to learn about

2007
01:12:55,499 --> 01:12:56,609
the many people around that

2008
01:12:56,609 --> 01:12:57,899
don't make up
your classroom,

2009
01:12:57,899 --> 01:12:59,114
that don't make up
your neighborhoods,

2010
01:12:59,114 --> 01:13:01,379
that don't make up
your living situation.

2011
01:13:01,379 --> 01:13:04,170
And ask everyone
you meet how

2012
01:13:04,170 --> 01:13:05,639
they want to be
called an identified

2013
01:13:05,639 --> 01:13:06,870
as I've embraced
being like,

2014
01:13:06,870 --> 01:13:07,919
Oh yeah, what are
your pronouns again,

2015
01:13:07,919 --> 01:13:09,000
I'm I forgot.

2016
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:11,039
Or do you still
go by this name?

2017
01:13:11,039 --> 01:13:13,110
You know, a lot of a
lot of times we have

2018
01:13:13,110 --> 01:13:15,329
dead names that we
don't want to hear.

2019
01:13:15,329 --> 01:13:17,099
Don't want to venture

2020
01:13:17,099 --> 01:13:18,164
back to unique and be like,

2021
01:13:18,164 --> 01:13:19,575
hey, I'm not sure,

2022
01:13:19,575 --> 01:13:20,219
I don't wanna assume,

2023
01:13:20,219 --> 01:13:21,690
but you still go
by this name.

2024
01:13:21,690 --> 01:13:23,130
Or I don't wanna assume,

2025
01:13:23,130 --> 01:13:24,419
but do you happen
to be transgender?

2026
01:13:24,419 --> 01:13:25,559
I'm asking because
I want to make

2027
01:13:25,559 --> 01:13:26,685
sure that you are safe.

2028
01:13:26,685 --> 01:13:27,629
I'm not asking you
because I just

2029
01:13:27,629 --> 01:13:29,220
want to know your trans.

2030
01:13:29,220 --> 01:13:32,715
I mean, like do you
want to know for wet,

2031
01:13:32,715 --> 01:13:34,260
like maybe give
them reasons

2032
01:13:34,260 --> 01:13:36,674
why you want to know
certain information.

2033
01:13:36,674 --> 01:13:40,079
Remember it's called
identity for a reason.

2034
01:13:40,079 --> 01:13:41,340
One of my favorite
professors

2035
01:13:41,340 --> 01:13:42,435
from the University
of Washington,

2036
01:13:42,435 --> 01:13:43,949
Mrs. ANOVA Harrington said

2037
01:13:43,949 --> 01:13:45,855
that and it changed
my fucking life.

2038
01:13:45,855 --> 01:13:48,209
We are not it's not
caught you density it's

2039
01:13:48,209 --> 01:13:50,700
not called weak entity
is called identity.

2040
01:13:50,700 --> 01:13:52,230
And the only i is

2041
01:13:52,230 --> 01:13:53,940
random but the fucking
forward identify

2042
01:13:53,940 --> 01:13:55,680
that she heard
goddess in so

2043
01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:56,730
respect her the way

2044
01:13:56,730 --> 01:13:57,974
she wants to be respected.

2045
01:13:57,974 --> 01:14:00,209
She heard that is Janie

2046
01:14:00,209 --> 01:14:01,349
was another person who was

2047
01:14:01,349 --> 01:14:02,565
different call Jamie.

2048
01:14:02,565 --> 01:14:04,004
Jamie wants to be called,

2049
01:14:04,004 --> 01:14:05,699
you know, like it's
caught identity.

2050
01:14:05,699 --> 01:14:08,715
Like we don't, we don't
need to generalize

2051
01:14:08,715 --> 01:14:11,430
people just because
we have maybe

2052
01:14:11,430 --> 01:14:14,040
similar stories are
similar experiences.

2053
01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:15,749
Everyone identifies
did really well just

2054
01:14:15,749 --> 01:14:17,864
beyond the agendas
that we know.

2055
01:14:17,864 --> 01:14:20,189
I came across a lot of

2056
01:14:20,189 --> 01:14:22,680
the terminology that
describes myself as,

2057
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:26,040
you know, non-binary
queer fan.

2058
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:27,660
I found a lot of
my language and

2059
01:14:27,660 --> 01:14:29,759
terminology that
affirmed me in

2060
01:14:29,759 --> 01:14:31,740
this book called trans
portraits voices

2061
01:14:31,740 --> 01:14:33,390
from transgender
communities by Jackson,

2062
01:14:33,390 --> 01:14:33,600
right?

2063
01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:35,579
Schultz. I'm
leaving in here.

2064
01:14:35,579 --> 01:14:37,980
And it just let

2065
01:14:37,980 --> 01:14:40,319
people again identify
themselves for you

2066
01:14:40,319 --> 01:14:42,225
and you'd be surprised
at what you find

2067
01:14:42,225 --> 01:14:43,350
out versus what you

2068
01:14:43,350 --> 01:14:45,044
might have assumed, right.

2069
01:14:45,044 --> 01:14:48,660
So yeah, I think that's
the last question to

2070
01:14:48,660 --> 01:14:52,409
anyone and that Randy.

2071
01:14:52,409 --> 01:14:53,550
Thank you so much.

2072
01:14:53,550 --> 01:14:55,275
First of all, I just
want to give you

2073
01:14:55,275 --> 01:14:57,885
a minute to take a
drink and a breath.

2074
01:14:57,885 --> 01:14:59,354
That was so fantastic.

2075
01:14:59,354 --> 01:15:01,034
Thank you so, so much.

2076
01:15:01,034 --> 01:15:02,460
We do have lots of

2077
01:15:02,460 --> 01:15:04,019
questions and we
also have lots

2078
01:15:04,019 --> 01:15:07,590
of great comments
in the chat.

2079
01:15:07,590 --> 01:15:08,609
So feel free to look at

2080
01:15:08,609 --> 01:15:09,675
all the praise
and the chat.

2081
01:15:09,675 --> 01:15:11,639
That'll, that'll feel
nice eyes while I'm

2082
01:15:11,639 --> 01:15:15,390
here pulling up some
comments as well.

2083
01:15:15,390 --> 01:15:22,184
Snack, you see my five.

2084
01:15:22,184 --> 01:15:24,479
I also want to let
everyone know.

2085
01:15:24,479 --> 01:15:27,149
I don't know if you have
this on your slide.

2086
01:15:27,149 --> 01:15:29,744
I don't think you
do. Randy's website

2087
01:15:29,744 --> 01:15:32,399
is the randy for.com.

2088
01:15:32,399 --> 01:15:36,929
And so many
beautiful videos of

2089
01:15:36,929 --> 01:15:39,539
Randy's dance in
her choreography

2090
01:15:39,539 --> 01:15:41,715
and just like all the
things that she does.

2091
01:15:41,715 --> 01:15:43,409
So I would highly

2092
01:15:43,409 --> 01:15:45,554
recommend checking
that out.

2093
01:15:45,554 --> 01:15:49,229
Okay. So we're going

2094
01:15:49,229 --> 01:15:52,320
to transition
into Q and a now.

2095
01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:54,600
And I would love for us,

2096
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:56,429
if you don't mind

2097
01:15:56,429 --> 01:15:58,709
stopping to ship,
sharing your screen.

2098
01:15:58,709 --> 01:16:01,394
I don't know how to
conjugate those verbs.

2099
01:16:01,394 --> 01:16:02,759
Health.

2100
01:16:02,759 --> 01:16:04,695
Nope, you're here
despite that's perfect.

2101
01:16:04,695 --> 01:16:06,990
I just wanted to make

2102
01:16:06,990 --> 01:16:07,529
it so we can see

2103
01:16:07,529 --> 01:16:08,730
your face a little
bit bigger.

2104
01:16:08,730 --> 01:16:11,490
And so we're just

2105
01:16:11,490 --> 01:16:14,130
focused on you while
we're doing this.

2106
01:16:14,130 --> 01:16:16,320
So I'm just going
to pull out the

2107
01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:18,645
first, the first question.

2108
01:16:18,645 --> 01:16:20,549
Someone is interested
in knowing if you

2109
01:16:20,549 --> 01:16:22,245
have an example
of a contract.

2110
01:16:22,245 --> 01:16:23,339
I wanted these
contracts that

2111
01:16:23,339 --> 01:16:24,555
you've developed
for teaching.

2112
01:16:24,555 --> 01:16:27,450
And they'd say,
I'm trying to

2113
01:16:27,450 --> 01:16:28,499
see what this would
look like for

2114
01:16:28,499 --> 01:16:30,450
a class that's being
taught remotely.

2115
01:16:30,450 --> 01:16:32,370
And if you didn't
have any language,

2116
01:16:32,370 --> 01:16:33,420
maybe you could share
that with me and

2117
01:16:33,420 --> 01:16:34,814
I could share that
out with people.

2118
01:16:34,814 --> 01:16:38,849
Yeah. I can definitely
give images.

2119
01:16:38,849 --> 01:16:42,179
Community agreement
contracts for sure.

2120
01:16:42,179 --> 01:16:44,370
Yeah. It's colorful because

2121
01:16:44,370 --> 01:16:46,140
I were elementary
and middle

2122
01:16:46,140 --> 01:16:47,730
school and and when
you make things

2123
01:16:47,730 --> 01:16:50,324
colorful and less like us,

2124
01:16:50,324 --> 01:16:53,099
like people engage
with all degrees.

2125
01:16:53,099 --> 01:16:55,050
But yes, I have so many

2126
01:16:55,050 --> 01:16:57,359
examples for you
that can definitely

2127
01:16:57,359 --> 01:16:59,670
paste into like an
email for Jamie

2128
01:16:59,670 --> 01:17:00,689
that can attach to

2129
01:17:00,689 --> 01:17:02,579
the slides. But absolutely.

2130
01:17:02,579 --> 01:17:04,919
But yes, save is
always a great one.

2131
01:17:04,919 --> 01:17:06,434
I've heard, you know,

2132
01:17:06,434 --> 01:17:08,069
kiss or, you know,

2133
01:17:08,069 --> 01:17:12,075
or rice or ice or you
can make any type.

2134
01:17:12,075 --> 01:17:13,560
Again, it doesn't
have to make

2135
01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:15,179
sense is up add
up to a word.

2136
01:17:15,179 --> 01:17:16,605
You can say love,
I don't know.

2137
01:17:16,605 --> 01:17:18,720
You can LGBTQ IA,

2138
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:20,399
if you want to make
sure it's specific

2139
01:17:20,399 --> 01:17:22,440
and you can find little
ways to make it.

2140
01:17:22,440 --> 01:17:24,119
And you also where
I lived to that.

2141
01:17:24,119 --> 01:17:25,980
And you can ask
everyone, hey,

2142
01:17:25,980 --> 01:17:29,370
what should our next
big category B?

2143
01:17:29,370 --> 01:17:30,930
And then let's
see from that.

2144
01:17:30,930 --> 01:17:32,730
So, yeah, great.

2145
01:17:32,730 --> 01:17:35,310
Okay. Someone wants to

2146
01:17:35,310 --> 01:17:36,809
know if you can talk
about grading and

2147
01:17:36,809 --> 01:17:38,280
I'm not sure if

2148
01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:40,019
you're teaching that's
a thing that you do

2149
01:17:40,019 --> 01:17:40,860
or if you'd like to

2150
01:17:40,860 --> 01:17:41,879
talk about that in terms of

2151
01:17:41,879 --> 01:17:43,350
accessibility and

2152
01:17:43,350 --> 01:17:44,955
equity and those
kinds of things.

2153
01:17:44,955 --> 01:17:48,330
Yeah, grading, it
really all depends on

2154
01:17:48,330 --> 01:17:50,369
really the school
institution that

2155
01:17:50,369 --> 01:17:51,239
you're teaching at because

2156
01:17:51,239 --> 01:17:52,934
everyone graves
differently.

2157
01:17:52,934 --> 01:17:54,824
Here in Washington.

2158
01:17:54,824 --> 01:17:55,889
There was even
a school that

2159
01:17:55,889 --> 01:17:57,060
didn't give out grades.

2160
01:17:57,060 --> 01:18:00,660
I taught at a private
school that, you know,

2161
01:18:00,660 --> 01:18:04,965
and so I wouldn't they
oh, my, you know,

2162
01:18:04,965 --> 01:18:07,844
pass fail based
off of, you know,

2163
01:18:07,844 --> 01:18:09,299
throughout the
course, have I

2164
01:18:09,299 --> 01:18:11,069
seen any improvement,
you know,

2165
01:18:11,069 --> 01:18:12,750
like in really anything,

2166
01:18:12,750 --> 01:18:14,729
whether like maybe
I is for dance,

2167
01:18:14,729 --> 01:18:15,509
like maybe I've got

2168
01:18:15,509 --> 01:18:17,234
a really good
column treeness.

2169
01:18:17,234 --> 01:18:19,560
The ballerinas dance.
If there were two,

2170
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:21,540
maybe I got a
Trina who knows,

2171
01:18:21,540 --> 01:18:23,910
it's like all about
her leg extensions.

2172
01:18:23,910 --> 01:18:25,499
But if I said if she's
dancing the same by

2173
01:18:25,499 --> 01:18:28,335
the end of the course
issue or anything or,

2174
01:18:28,335 --> 01:18:30,719
you know, does she
maintain her strength?

2175
01:18:30,719 --> 01:18:33,704
So it can go either way.

2176
01:18:33,704 --> 01:18:36,270
I like to say just

2177
01:18:36,270 --> 01:18:39,810
for me when it
comes to migrating.

2178
01:18:39,810 --> 01:18:41,519
I've done, you know,

2179
01:18:41,519 --> 01:18:43,770
week-long dance
workshops or, you know,

2180
01:18:43,770 --> 01:18:46,350
season long Dance Series

2181
01:18:46,350 --> 01:18:48,659
and migrating is always
just yeah, like it.

2182
01:18:48,659 --> 01:18:50,250
This person get
along with others.

2183
01:18:50,250 --> 01:18:51,735
Did this person
get on with me?

2184
01:18:51,735 --> 01:18:53,264
Has this person made

2185
01:18:53,264 --> 01:18:54,629
effort to come to

2186
01:18:54,629 --> 01:18:56,250
me whether they have
a good, great bag.

2187
01:18:56,250 --> 01:18:58,694
Great question Is this
person participating?

2188
01:18:58,694 --> 01:19:00,900
You know, is this
person interacting with

2189
01:19:00,900 --> 01:19:02,684
everyone equally
as this person

2190
01:19:02,684 --> 01:19:04,439
only shaded what
some people,

2191
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:06,510
How does this person
handle conflict?

2192
01:19:06,510 --> 01:19:08,849
You know what I mean?
How to sell their soul?

2193
01:19:08,849 --> 01:19:11,219
All of those are
real grades that we

2194
01:19:11,219 --> 01:19:13,650
need to be graded on in
life versus oh, okay.

2195
01:19:13,650 --> 01:19:15,825
You know how to do
this formula for it.

2196
01:19:15,825 --> 01:19:17,549
300 thousand questions.

2197
01:19:17,549 --> 01:19:19,229
And I say, yeah, upcoming,

2198
01:19:19,229 --> 01:19:21,315
giving people feedback and

2199
01:19:21,315 --> 01:19:23,054
something that will
help them grow.

2200
01:19:23,054 --> 01:19:25,454
Okay, so I want to,
I want to actually

2201
01:19:25,454 --> 01:19:27,900
take a pause and read

2202
01:19:27,900 --> 01:19:29,640
a couple of comments

2203
01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:31,530
that were collected that I

2204
01:19:31,530 --> 01:19:33,525
think are

2205
01:19:33,525 --> 01:19:35,159
relevant that you might

2206
01:19:35,159 --> 01:19:35,999
be interested to hear.

2207
01:19:35,999 --> 01:19:37,559
I'm, I've been looking
into research on

2208
01:19:37,559 --> 01:19:38,714
highly sensitive people who

2209
01:19:38,714 --> 01:19:40,770
process things more
deeply than other people.

2210
01:19:40,770 --> 01:19:42,720
This might fit into some
of the perspectives

2211
01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:44,775
mentioned in this slide
on accessibility.

2212
01:19:44,775 --> 01:19:47,924
And my daughter are
highly sensitive people.

2213
01:19:47,924 --> 01:19:50,595
Another comments.

2214
01:19:50,595 --> 01:19:52,950
Asking about needs
on a daily basis

2215
01:19:52,950 --> 01:19:54,449
makes so much sense,

2216
01:19:54,449 --> 01:19:56,370
yet I have never done
this will start today

2217
01:19:56,370 --> 01:19:57,479
at home with my kids as

2218
01:19:57,479 --> 01:19:58,514
well as with my students.

2219
01:19:58,514 --> 01:20:01,320
Thank you. Yes.
Take it home.

2220
01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:03,689
Home. Oh, my god.

2221
01:20:03,689 --> 01:20:06,820
Let's see. There's
another, okay.

2222
01:20:07,220 --> 01:20:10,574
I found a lot of research

2223
01:20:10,574 --> 01:20:13,199
referenced in
student affairs and

2224
01:20:13,199 --> 01:20:15,209
higher education is
divided by gender,

2225
01:20:15,209 --> 01:20:16,830
both in the past
and the present.

2226
01:20:16,830 --> 01:20:18,870
I'm wondering how to
grapple with this and

2227
01:20:18,870 --> 01:20:21,000
discuss this in a way
that is meaningful.

2228
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,819
It still honors non-binary
folks in classes,

2229
01:20:23,819 --> 01:20:25,139
but point out the gaps

2230
01:20:25,139 --> 01:20:26,789
in knowledge that we have.

2231
01:20:26,789 --> 01:20:28,349
Oh, my gosh.

2232
01:20:28,349 --> 01:20:29,999
Thank you.
Anonymous attendee.

2233
01:20:29,999 --> 01:20:33,090
Guess I have very
strong feelings about

2234
01:20:33,090 --> 01:20:36,885
a lot of things that
we deem as research.

2235
01:20:36,885 --> 01:20:38,190
Especially like
when it comes

2236
01:20:38,190 --> 01:20:40,514
to violence against women,

2237
01:20:40,514 --> 01:20:42,869
has put a very
fine example,

2238
01:20:42,869 --> 01:20:44,100
Violence Against Women US

2239
01:20:44,100 --> 01:20:45,840
always certain numbers that

2240
01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:47,114
are attached to
that, right?

2241
01:20:47,114 --> 01:20:48,780
But when we think
about everyone

2242
01:20:48,780 --> 01:20:51,000
who identifies as Fen,

2243
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:53,219
You know, one,

2244
01:20:53,219 --> 01:20:54,854
are these numbers
reflective of that?

2245
01:20:54,854 --> 01:20:58,484
Or are we
generalizing women?

2246
01:20:58,484 --> 01:21:01,140
All women and
femme as the same?

2247
01:21:01,140 --> 01:21:02,939
And so I think, yeah,

2248
01:21:02,939 --> 01:21:04,575
a lot of the research
that we have

2249
01:21:04,575 --> 01:21:06,389
has been divided
amongst two

2250
01:21:06,389 --> 01:21:07,830
and is seen as

2251
01:21:07,830 --> 01:21:12,269
a no binary, this
heteronormative standard.

2252
01:21:12,269 --> 01:21:13,724
And it's very,
it's frustrating

2253
01:21:13,724 --> 01:21:16,124
because I tend to be
the only one saying,

2254
01:21:16,124 --> 01:21:17,610
I wonder how many
non-binary people

2255
01:21:17,610 --> 01:21:18,900
were in that statistic.

2256
01:21:18,900 --> 01:21:21,839
I wonder how many queer
femmes or how many,

2257
01:21:21,839 --> 01:21:24,329
you know, femmes
who? I don't know.

2258
01:21:24,329 --> 01:21:26,249
I don't have internet
or, you know,

2259
01:21:26,249 --> 01:21:27,930
like because getting left

2260
01:21:27,930 --> 01:21:29,010
out right now there's

2261
01:21:29,010 --> 01:21:30,419
so many things in
our research that

2262
01:21:30,419 --> 01:21:32,160
is left out that again,

2263
01:21:32,160 --> 01:21:34,500
eliminates all the
nuances that make

2264
01:21:34,500 --> 01:21:37,290
us s. And so yeah, yeah.

2265
01:21:37,290 --> 01:21:38,819
Okay. So I have
two questions

2266
01:21:38,819 --> 01:21:40,290
that are kind of asking
the same question,

2267
01:21:40,290 --> 01:21:41,955
so I'm going to
read the bus.

2268
01:21:41,955 --> 01:21:43,739
Do you have any advice

2269
01:21:43,739 --> 01:21:45,029
for introducing discussions

2270
01:21:45,029 --> 01:21:46,289
around gender and safety to

2271
01:21:46,289 --> 01:21:48,089
classes with students
you predominant,

2272
01:21:48,089 --> 01:21:49,724
predominantly might
not engaged or

2273
01:21:49,724 --> 01:21:51,839
engaged in these
conversations before.

2274
01:21:51,839 --> 01:21:54,554
And the second
question is, someone,

2275
01:21:54,554 --> 01:21:56,235
especially in
international students,

2276
01:21:56,235 --> 01:21:58,170
may honestly react
differently without

2277
01:21:58,170 --> 01:22:00,450
knowing how do you
treat that situation?

2278
01:22:00,450 --> 01:22:04,934
Yeah. Yes. So
again, you know,

2279
01:22:04,934 --> 01:22:06,330
I worked in the
Seattle Public

2280
01:22:06,330 --> 01:22:08,114
School system where I was

2281
01:22:08,114 --> 01:22:11,850
a lot of young
people's first,

2282
01:22:11,850 --> 01:22:13,470
very first interaction with

2283
01:22:13,470 --> 01:22:14,790
a black trans woman and

2284
01:22:14,790 --> 01:22:15,809
very first interaction with

2285
01:22:15,809 --> 01:22:16,680
a black trans women have

2286
01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:19,634
a teacher has also
put that in mind.

2287
01:22:19,634 --> 01:22:22,290
And so any advice

2288
01:22:22,290 --> 01:22:24,629
for any of you
introducing gender and

2289
01:22:24,629 --> 01:22:27,570
saving the importance
of gender to class

2290
01:22:27,570 --> 01:22:31,215
a community where it's
not on their radar.

2291
01:22:31,215 --> 01:22:32,849
Be very gracious with

2292
01:22:32,849 --> 01:22:35,734
yourselves at, you know,

2293
01:22:35,734 --> 01:22:38,099
as you see people
getting either

2294
01:22:38,099 --> 01:22:40,634
comfortable or
getting pushback,

2295
01:22:40,634 --> 01:22:43,470
you're gonna get push
back the first day,

2296
01:22:43,470 --> 01:22:45,254
the first week,
the first month,

2297
01:22:45,254 --> 01:22:46,784
maybe even the first year.

2298
01:22:46,784 --> 01:22:48,390
It also depends on
how much support

2299
01:22:48,390 --> 01:22:49,979
you have in your
school system.

2300
01:22:49,979 --> 01:22:51,975
That's, you know,
does your school

2301
01:22:51,975 --> 01:22:54,510
have anything
around gender in

2302
01:22:54,510 --> 01:22:56,459
their mission
statement or gender

2303
01:22:56,459 --> 01:22:58,515
inclusive or ending
gender-based violence

2304
01:22:58,515 --> 01:22:59,730
in their mission statement.

2305
01:22:59,730 --> 01:23:03,195
You know? So advice
would be like, you know,

2306
01:23:03,195 --> 01:23:04,289
if you're finding
that you're

2307
01:23:04,289 --> 01:23:05,400
teaching somewhere
and it's been

2308
01:23:05,400 --> 01:23:06,885
a while since you've
gotten support

2309
01:23:06,885 --> 01:23:08,910
around the gender
inclusivity in your school,

2310
01:23:08,910 --> 01:23:11,219
your classroom, ticket
to your higher-ups.

2311
01:23:11,219 --> 01:23:12,929
Like, hey, I made a, you

2312
01:23:12,929 --> 01:23:15,509
know, a claim, you know,

2313
01:23:15,509 --> 01:23:16,995
I mentioned that, you know,

2314
01:23:16,995 --> 01:23:18,704
it's I'm not getting
any support,

2315
01:23:18,704 --> 01:23:20,834
you know, when it
comes to this.

2316
01:23:20,834 --> 01:23:23,519
And I've, I've left
institutions that did

2317
01:23:23,519 --> 01:23:25,019
not serve me as

2318
01:23:25,019 --> 01:23:26,385
a black trans person
working there.

2319
01:23:26,385 --> 01:23:27,975
I've definitely worked
in institutions

2320
01:23:27,975 --> 01:23:29,280
that, you know,

2321
01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:30,960
they said, well, we
support, you know,

2322
01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:33,390
we've got your back but
when it came to me,

2323
01:23:33,390 --> 01:23:34,844
get in, you know,

2324
01:23:34,844 --> 01:23:37,005
followed home by a mob,

2325
01:23:37,005 --> 01:23:38,820
you know, use, you know,

2326
01:23:38,820 --> 01:23:40,080
the epic community-centered
I worked

2327
01:23:40,080 --> 01:23:41,400
at and get any
support, right.

2328
01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:42,330
And so sometimes
you have to

2329
01:23:42,330 --> 01:23:43,950
leave and be like,
You know what,

2330
01:23:43,950 --> 01:23:46,125
this institution,
this entity,

2331
01:23:46,125 --> 01:23:47,475
you're not gonna
do it for me.

2332
01:23:47,475 --> 01:23:48,810
You know, I can't
be the only

2333
01:23:48,810 --> 01:23:50,610
one making, you know,

2334
01:23:50,610 --> 01:23:53,790
be making this
important, right?

2335
01:23:53,790 --> 01:23:55,980
You have to have
your community,

2336
01:23:55,980 --> 01:23:56,999
you have to have
your teachers,

2337
01:23:56,999 --> 01:23:58,380
you have to have
your students

2338
01:23:58,380 --> 01:23:59,940
sometimes even you know,

2339
01:23:59,940 --> 01:24:02,489
to be part of that
cause that labor

2340
01:24:02,489 --> 01:24:04,890
can't be your shoulders.

2341
01:24:04,890 --> 01:24:05,925
Yeah, it can't be door.

2342
01:24:05,925 --> 01:24:07,635
So that's definitely
my big advice.

2343
01:24:07,635 --> 01:24:10,679
If you find that the
laborers all yours leaf,

2344
01:24:10,679 --> 01:24:12,539
you're not gonna
get anywhere.

2345
01:24:12,539 --> 01:24:14,534
As far as people

2346
01:24:14,534 --> 01:24:16,469
who come from
different areas.

2347
01:24:16,469 --> 01:24:18,149
As far as like
international students,

2348
01:24:18,149 --> 01:24:19,739
have different ideas around

2349
01:24:19,739 --> 01:24:22,874
westernize gender
and all that stuff.

2350
01:24:22,874 --> 01:24:24,885
Again, you know,
you're gonna get

2351
01:24:24,885 --> 01:24:26,580
a lot of confusion
and you're

2352
01:24:26,580 --> 01:24:27,840
gonna get a lot of
times where you're

2353
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:30,629
like we mentioned
this before.

2354
01:24:30,629 --> 01:24:32,730
Miss Randy goes
by Miss Randy.

2355
01:24:32,730 --> 01:24:34,439
Miss Randy does like you're

2356
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:36,350
good. Is going to happen.

2357
01:24:36,350 --> 01:24:37,925
Especially language
is a barrier.

2358
01:24:37,925 --> 01:24:39,469
You know, a lot
of the words we

2359
01:24:39,469 --> 01:24:42,200
use were made up
by white people.

2360
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:46,399
You know, like oh,

2361
01:24:46,399 --> 01:24:48,634
I think I forgot to
mention that as well too.

2362
01:24:48,634 --> 01:24:50,719
But yeah, a lot of
the words that we

2363
01:24:50,719 --> 01:24:53,210
have around gender art,

2364
01:24:53,210 --> 01:24:55,340
you know, the end-all

2365
01:24:55,340 --> 01:24:56,975
be-all around
gender identity.

2366
01:24:56,975 --> 01:24:57,829
That makes any sense.

2367
01:24:57,829 --> 01:24:58,789
And I think I mentioned it

2368
01:24:58,789 --> 01:24:59,750
in another slide
where, you know,

2369
01:24:59,750 --> 01:24:59,899
there are

2370
01:24:59,899 --> 01:25:01,715
different communities
that recognize

2371
01:25:01,715 --> 01:25:02,569
their agendas and have

2372
01:25:02,569 --> 01:25:04,909
different words
like different.

2373
01:25:04,909 --> 01:25:08,059
I know someone who's from

2374
01:25:08,059 --> 01:25:12,260
Guam and their
pronouns are wheats,

2375
01:25:12,260 --> 01:25:14,450
insult, yea, that's an
indigenous language

2376
01:25:14,450 --> 01:25:16,340
and interpretive maybe
can that spell that.

2377
01:25:16,340 --> 01:25:20,100
So sorry. But, you know,

2378
01:25:20,100 --> 01:25:22,110
it takes it takes you

2379
01:25:22,110 --> 01:25:23,610
one thing and it
takes that person

2380
01:25:23,610 --> 01:25:25,244
12e again to expand.

2381
01:25:25,244 --> 01:25:26,970
And as long as you're
encouraging folks

2382
01:25:26,970 --> 01:25:28,725
to be flexible when
it comes to this,

2383
01:25:28,725 --> 01:25:31,260
you're gonna
get a lot more.

2384
01:25:31,260 --> 01:25:32,699
You might, you might, you

2385
01:25:32,699 --> 01:25:34,125
might get a lot
more, you might not.

2386
01:25:34,125 --> 01:25:35,670
But you have every
right to leave

2387
01:25:35,670 --> 01:25:36,719
an institution or to

2388
01:25:36,719 --> 01:25:38,039
leave a situation
that's not safe,

2389
01:25:38,039 --> 01:25:38,879
especially if you are queer

2390
01:25:38,879 --> 01:25:40,380
identified doing this work.

2391
01:25:40,380 --> 01:25:42,434
And a person of
color or black,

2392
01:25:42,434 --> 01:25:43,679
you have every right

2393
01:25:43,679 --> 01:25:44,864
to be like, you know what,

2394
01:25:44,864 --> 01:25:46,665
that school that whatever

2395
01:25:46,665 --> 01:25:47,609
is causing the tuition,

2396
01:25:47,609 --> 01:25:48,900
whatever when it

2397
01:25:48,900 --> 01:25:50,369
I'm going to take
them somewhere else.

2398
01:25:50,369 --> 01:25:52,799
And that's
absolutely right.

2399
01:25:52,799 --> 01:25:53,850
You can't have all of

2400
01:25:53,850 --> 01:25:55,155
that weight on
your shoulders.

2401
01:25:55,155 --> 01:25:56,430
So this is o,
this question.

2402
01:25:56,430 --> 01:25:57,420
There's a long
question and it

2403
01:25:57,420 --> 01:25:58,530
might be to be
our last one.

2404
01:25:58,530 --> 01:26:00,570
We'll see how much time I'm

2405
01:26:00,570 --> 01:26:01,829
going to share
one last comment

2406
01:26:01,829 --> 01:26:02,879
with you as well.

2407
01:26:02,879 --> 01:26:03,929
So I'm going to read this.

2408
01:26:03,929 --> 01:26:05,220
It's, it's relatively long.

2409
01:26:05,220 --> 01:26:06,329
Thank you for showing us

2410
01:26:06,329 --> 01:26:07,380
how important it is to have

2411
01:26:07,380 --> 01:26:08,730
understanding for
a wide variety

2412
01:26:08,730 --> 01:26:10,245
of needs our students have,

2413
01:26:10,245 --> 01:26:11,565
this has been so helpful.

2414
01:26:11,565 --> 01:26:13,530
I wonder how you
recommend balancing

2415
01:26:13,530 --> 01:26:15,840
the idea of building
capacity for resilience,

2416
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:17,194
both for our
learners and for

2417
01:26:17,194 --> 01:26:18,869
ourselves with
the goal to me,

2418
01:26:18,869 --> 01:26:20,715
everyone's distinct
individual needs.

2419
01:26:20,715 --> 01:26:22,530
For example, a
student might be late

2420
01:26:22,530 --> 01:26:23,069
to class were

2421
01:26:23,069 --> 01:26:24,584
very important
personal reasons,

2422
01:26:24,584 --> 01:26:26,370
but might also
need to hear that

2423
01:26:26,370 --> 01:26:28,469
being on time is important
if it's possible,

2424
01:26:28,469 --> 01:26:29,250
and may need to be

2425
01:26:29,250 --> 01:26:30,765
encouraged to do
that if they can't.

2426
01:26:30,765 --> 01:26:31,950
How do we balance the goals

2427
01:26:31,950 --> 01:26:33,060
of learning resilience and

2428
01:26:33,060 --> 01:26:34,289
appreciating slash

2429
01:26:34,289 --> 01:26:35,954
accommodating
special needs.

2430
01:26:35,954 --> 01:26:38,219
Oh, absolutely.

2431
01:26:38,219 --> 01:26:40,560
Absolutely.

2432
01:26:40,560 --> 01:26:43,410
And honestly. I'm
gonna give you

2433
01:26:43,410 --> 01:26:46,050
my honest answer right now.

2434
01:26:46,050 --> 01:26:47,295
So I'm still
learning about this.

2435
01:26:47,295 --> 01:26:48,404
I really am.

2436
01:26:48,404 --> 01:26:52,215
I'm, I'm learning the
difference between,

2437
01:26:52,215 --> 01:26:53,730
you know, being able

2438
01:26:53,730 --> 01:26:56,055
lists and having a
standard, right?

2439
01:26:56,055 --> 01:26:58,589
I don't believe that.

2440
01:26:58,589 --> 01:27:00,719
And again, this might
be controversial,

2441
01:27:00,719 --> 01:27:03,885
but this is my findings
as in my experience.

2442
01:27:03,885 --> 01:27:07,739
But I feel that
disability or not,

2443
01:27:07,739 --> 01:27:09,475
we must still
have standards.

2444
01:27:09,475 --> 01:27:10,920
He knows disability or not.

2445
01:27:10,920 --> 01:27:14,609
We must still have some
level of challenging,

2446
01:27:14,609 --> 01:27:17,520
you know, otherwise
we're being complicit.

2447
01:27:17,520 --> 01:27:20,820
Otherwise where, you know.

2448
01:27:20,820 --> 01:27:23,775
Yeah. Otherwise
we're again,

2449
01:27:23,775 --> 01:27:26,130
just lowering lowering
standards for

2450
01:27:26,130 --> 01:27:28,634
people and selling
them short.

2451
01:27:28,634 --> 01:27:30,555
You know, like, you
know, you're not giving

2452
01:27:30,555 --> 01:27:32,819
anyone any type of,

2453
01:27:32,819 --> 01:27:36,044
you know, advantage by
lowering a standard.

2454
01:27:36,044 --> 01:27:37,289
So yes, although I

2455
01:27:37,289 --> 01:27:38,580
do want to
acknowledge that,

2456
01:27:38,580 --> 01:27:40,080
you know, maybe one
of my students,

2457
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:42,479
you know, can't catch

2458
01:27:42,479 --> 01:27:43,620
a certain bus that gets

2459
01:27:43,620 --> 01:27:45,150
them to my
classroom on time.

2460
01:27:45,150 --> 01:27:47,595
But how I
alleviate that is,

2461
01:27:47,595 --> 01:27:49,019
is this person
communicating

2462
01:27:49,019 --> 01:27:50,340
with me, you know,

2463
01:27:50,340 --> 01:27:52,259
or versus just assuming
that, oh, well,

2464
01:27:52,259 --> 01:27:53,280
this teacher
that invited me

2465
01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:54,645
because I took
that because I,

2466
01:27:54,645 --> 01:27:56,159
especially as an educator.

2467
01:27:56,159 --> 01:27:57,779
And back to my experience,

2468
01:27:57,779 --> 01:27:58,949
I dropped out of college

2469
01:27:58,949 --> 01:28:00,210
due to this because I had

2470
01:28:00,210 --> 01:28:01,890
so many things going on
in my life that I was

2471
01:28:01,890 --> 01:28:04,184
not letting my
professors know about.

2472
01:28:04,184 --> 01:28:05,549
Yes, they didn't
understanding.

2473
01:28:05,549 --> 01:28:07,094
Yes, I felt all
the things like,

2474
01:28:07,094 --> 01:28:08,910
oh, they didn't listen
to any of my needs.

2475
01:28:08,910 --> 01:28:10,320
And I was I had so much

2476
01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:12,074
going on in dah
dah dah dah dot.

2477
01:28:12,074 --> 01:28:13,260
But they're like this.

2478
01:28:13,260 --> 01:28:14,369
You didn't tell
us any of that.

2479
01:28:14,369 --> 01:28:15,374
So what are we
going to say?

2480
01:28:15,374 --> 01:28:16,695
United me like
you didn't say

2481
01:28:16,695 --> 01:28:19,919
anything like a anything.

2482
01:28:19,919 --> 01:28:21,150
But that kind
of goes back to

2483
01:28:21,150 --> 01:28:22,230
that relationship of where

2484
01:28:22,230 --> 01:28:24,614
we need to set up a
safe spaces educators.

2485

2486
01:28:25,469 --> 01:28:26,640
have the responsibility to

2487
01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:28,634
enter that safe space
and communicate.

2488
01:28:28,634 --> 01:28:31,020
That's okay. And
