Even before COVID-19, education experts were sounding the alarm about the future of racialized children in our schools. And the COVID-19 pandemic has only underscored – even deepened – the divide. Carl James, professor of education at York University and Kulsoom Anwer, a high school teacher who works out of one of Toronto's most marginalized neighborhoods, Jane and Finch, join us to discuss the injustices and inequalities in the education system – and the way forward. This episode is part of our Summer Flashback: it originally aired in February 2021. This flashback was recommended by Vinita Srivastava, the Host + Producer and Senior Editor of The Conversation Canada.
