In our second episode, Literacy Mic producer David Christensen talks with Nick Lacy. Their conversation spans different kinds of barriers to learning, from dyslexia to racism and class in the United States. They thread a narrative that connects support from parents, teachers, and mentors to the achievement gap seen between the haves and the have-nots.
Nick is the giving manager at Washtenaw Literacy.
