<h2>On this episode from @ewbpod, Mahlon (@SuperMahrio) and Adrian (<a href="https://twitter.com/adrian_rollins" target="_blank">@adrian_rollins</a> - twitter // <a href="https://www.instagram.com/adrian.rollins/" target="_blank">@adrian.rollins</a> - instagram) reflect on Adrian's dual-career life; first as a professional cricketer and then as a highly regarded leader in education.</h2> <p>Adrian's familial links to both sports and education give a good window into understanding how he entered both professions and how he has used his identity to push the narrative about expectations and realities wider than sometimes considered. This is further interrogated when looking the relationship between representations (and perceptions) of professional sports, as often given to young Black students, and the importance of the value of education to a successful career.<br> <br> We explore our experiences of workplace policies that deal with racism by denying its claims in the first place (typically before attempting to removing the complainants as punishment).</p> <p>Throughout the conversation we delve into moments where community and self determination have been instrumental as supports for Adrian. These highlight moments of his own growth in character and stature, but also give good insight into how to ensure that one's next steps build upon previous experience.</p>

<p>On this episode from @<strong>ewbpod</strong>, Mahlon (@<strong>SuperMahrio</strong>) and Matthew<strong> (@callmemrmorris </strong>-<strong> </strong>twitter<strong> // @matthewrmorris </strong>-<strong> </strong>instagram<strong>)</strong> have an illuminating and reflective conversation about how identity intersects with and shapes experiences - particularly of Black men within the educational landscape.<br> <br> During the conversation, Matthew provides countless examples of being intentional and contemplative in making decisions, as well as working with the effects of them - In particular, thinking about how those decisions would impact the representation he would be providing for others. Similarly, we trade stories of receiving blatant racial disrespect and the cognitive and emotional taxation involved in having to hold the whole experience together for both parties (and others who bear witness).<br> <br> The conversation takes us to critiquing the systemic and institutional narratives promoted about those who are appointed to, and serving in roles that influence systems beyond individual classrooms or schools. Our mutual observations serve to show how similar our experience of 'progressive' education has been over the last decade, despite having experiences in two geographically different educational systems.<br> <br> Throughout, we wrestle with and critique navigating the narrow and often oppositional expectations given to Black people about who they should aspire to be. We consider the role Black educators have in the representation as well as protection of identities, through modelling vulnerability and authenticity as acts of rebellion and freedom from these binaries.</p>

<p>On this episode from @ewbpod, Mahlon (@SuperMahrio) and Jason Bradshaw (<a href="https://twitter.com/JBradshaw01" target="_blank">@JBradshaw01</a>) have a brilliant conversation about how the spectrum of Blackness expands far beyond the extremities its often given by both Black and non-Black people alike.<br> <br> Right from the start, we talk about Jason's love for both science and science fiction in particular. We talk about how these interests led him to study science for his undergrad degree, but that same passion for science fiction has at points been presented as a 'non-stereotypical' thing for Black men to be involved in. <br> <br> We talk about how reflecting on this is in part what formed his decision to teach in the area that he himself was educated and the demographic changes he's seen from his own time as a student to now. We also talk about how limiting and dangerous stereotypes are, with both Jason and Mahlon sharing stories of students either being streamed out of academic qualifications, with their parents being presented with partial or no information about the direction that would take their child going forward.<br> <br> In parting, Jason speaks powerfully about how stereotypes damage on both sides...<strong>something that cannot be said enough.</strong><br> <br> 🎧 Listen on Spotify, Apple, Anchor and Google Podcasts.<br> ⠀<br> <br> #ewbpod #blackpodcast #streotypes #blackboyjoy #blackinstem #blackinstemed #blackstudents #blacktober #blackteachersofinstagram #blackontario #blackinscience</p>
