May 14, 2023 - Central Falls Teacher David Upegui / Critical Race Theory
This episode takes a deep dive into education in the Ocean State. First up, Michelle San Miguel interviews educator David Upegui, who grew up experiencing homelessness, and has now received the nation’s highest honor for STEM teachers. He shares his unique outlook on how he has improved—and even saved—students’ lives. Then, we take a second look at the issue of critical race theory. The term has become a catchall for the debate over what, and if, we teach about race in schools.
