The Smog - is all of the things that we hear and say about schools, often without realizing the ways those things are racialized.  “I don’t want to sacrifice my kid on the altar of social justice“ is just one of many.  The podcast will occasionally feature smog-conversations; the only way the smog changes is if we engage with these ideas directly.  
We're joined today by Denise from Santa Fe, who has been a key contributor to this podcast already, and who you'll be hearing more from in future episodes.
