Anthony Downer is an Equity Coordinator for the City Schools of Decatur. In his work, Downer advocates for a curriculum beyond the standards that encourages antiracist, culturally responsive, courageous teaching in the school system that can uplift black students. Recognizing students lack of contact with multicultural narratives and bureaucratic pushback against Critical Race Theory reinforces inequitable educational outcomes, he calls on teachers to not simply wait for systemic change but in an exercise of ingenuity to be and build what they are demanding. In the process, the podcast helps listeners learn how teachers can service black students today while they fight for something better tomorrow.
