Join us for the final Social Justice Educators Community Gathering of the year, now on Wednesday, April 16, for an Educator Talk Story session featuring a group of speakers who will provide thoughts, updates, and clarification on teaching for justice in this particular moment. The panel includes Hawaiʻi State House Representative and former social studies teacher Amy Perruso, Professor of Law and Director of Experiential Learning at the UH Mānoa William S. Richardson School of Law Professor Eduardo Capulong, and Waynele Yu, an instructor with the School for Teacher Education at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa and a member of Hawaiʻi Scholars for Education, Justice and Diversity. In addition to information and resource sharing, there will be a Q&A session with the speakers focusing on justice-minded education in uncertain times.

This series of online gatherings is focused on social justice education in Hawaiʻi for those who are:

  • in a role supporting diversity, equity, inclusion, or belonging at school

  • on a committee exploring such issues

  • teaching social justice content in classes

  • engaged in advocacy or activism around social justice education

  • or are interested in learning more about the work others are doing toward these ends.

A component of the Social Justice Education in Hawaiʻi Project offered by Hanahauʻoli School and the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa College of Education, these informal gatherings are offered at no cost thanks to the generosity of Jana and Howard Wolff.
