Join hosts Quibila Divine and Sylvia Simms as they have a special guest, Dr. Sonya Douglas to discuss her impactful book, "Learning in a Burning House: Educational Inequality, Ideology, and (Dis)Integration." In this heartfelt exchange, Dr. Douglass sheds light on the enduring disparities within the U.S. education system, particularly in the context of race and inequality. She underscores the criticality of understanding the historical narrative of desegregation to fully comprehend the present circumstances of black education. With passion, she stresses the necessity of collective action at the community level to uphold the fight for educational equity and justice. The conversation also offers a sneak peek into host Sylvia Simms' upcoming book, "A Parent's Power," where she shares personal experiences with desegregation and reinforces the urgency for educational reform.
