Part III: Tired But Inspired
<p>Like all of us, young people in our schools and communities absorb powerful cultural narratives that influence their beliefs about themselves and each other. Unfortunately, in recent years, many of these narratives have been coopted by bigoted groups that seek to divide our communities and weaken our democratic institutions. In this final episode of our limited series, we speak to four experts to learn how narrative shifts occur and how we can empower ourselves to influence them…</p><ul><li>At the social and cultural level,</li><li>At the community level, and </li><li>At the home and family level. </li></ul><br/><p>We also break down the stages of a moral panic, and point to examples of how we can help melt the snowball of the current anti-trans panic before it causes even more harm.

Part I: Blackboard Battleground
<p>How did our education system become a high-stakes cultural battleground? Why would any group or organization want to target a school? In this episode, Western States Center Fellows Adrienne van der Valk and Rae Page explore these questions by investigating three stories about schools experiencing anti-democracy organizing or bigotry. </p><ul><li>An educator is targeted for teaching about bias—a topic her state’s academic standards require her to address. </li><li>A student comes to school glorifying weapons and bragging about his association with a local militia group. </li><li>Teachers grapple with a new state law requiring them to teach “both sides” of controversial issues—including the Holocaust. </li></ul><br/><p>Learn what these scenarios have in common and how we got here in Part I of this limited series from Western States Center. </p><p>Be sure to subscribe so you won't miss Parts II and II, in which we'll look at the many ways educators, families, community members, and students are fighting back and defending democracy in schools. </p><p><strong>Related Resources</strong></p><ul><li><a href="westernstatescenter.org/schools" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Confronting White Nationalism in Schools: A Toolkit </a></li><li><a href="westernstatescenter.org/caregivers" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Confronting Conspiracy Theories and Organized Bigotry at Home</a></li><li><a href="edweek.org/leadership/the-evolution-of-the-anti-crt-movement-a-timeline/2022/12" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Evolution of the Anti-CRT Movement: A Timeline</a></li><li><a href="learningforjustice.org/magazine/publications/after-election-day-the-trump-effect" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">After Election Day: The Trump Effect</a></li><li><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f0Sb-D7hmZ1W65MB2HHfQJoYP8KtLmyh/view?usp=sharing" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Episode Transcript</a></li></ul><br/>
