  • Summary

  • I am going to venture and bet that there are many of us who went through the public education system, and perhaps throughout college and grad school, did not have many, if any, Black men as educators. I would venture and add that for those individuals that attended private schools, there were not many Black men educators in their classrooms either. The lack of Black men in the classroom, direct correlation or not, seems to have impact on many youth in schools today. The impact seems to hit harder when it comes to young, Black boys.

    Why are there so few Black men in education at every level of education? On this episode of The Offshoot Podcast, posed that question to two Black men who had professions in education, but chose to leave for different reasons. Their decision was despite the acknowledgement that Black men are needed in the classroom. The education profession, to hear my guests talk, had become unsafe, high demand, and low in compensation. But they offer solutions. Take a listen to this episode of The Offshoot Podcast.
