Status: coping with mounting anxiety about our political situation through list making. I created this “Decolonize Your Mind” Starter Pack with my undergrads in mind, but I’m sharing here in the hopes that it will prove useful to others. The general idea is to provide easy ways for students to start to think about race/class/gender/sexuality/other identity categories in their regular lives, not just when they’re in my classroom. An educator can dream.
I created this Spotify list with my emotional needs in mind. So far it’s doing its job (making me laugh/dance/remember how good it is that Peaches and Sun Ra make/made music).
