This week on Season 4, episode 6 of That's SO EDVOLUTIONARY, we begin a mini-series on how play-based learning can help us start to alleviate many of the challenges we face in education today.
And to kick it off, we're starting with a big one: white supremacy culture.
If you haven't listened to last week's episode about the impact of the social environment on human behavior, you'll want to start there. Because not only is it interesting... but this episode builds on top of it.
Often, our lens on 'how the world works' is just "culture masquerading as nature," as anthropologist James Suzman says.
If we truly want our institutions to work for all the humans they are meant to serve, we need to better understand the culture driving our social environments that we take for granted as how the world works. Only then can we fully see the barriers to our vision and make impactful shifts.
