The Fallout: Anti-CRT in Texas
Over the last year school districts have been the target of state laws that regulate curriculum, books, and conversations in schools. This podcast reports on the fallout of this law in Texas. Seven undergraduate students conducted a total of 41 interviews with students, teachers, and community members throughout the state, to understand how people made sense of this legislation. This class was a part of an undergraduate research class called Story Lab at Trinity University in San Antonio, TX. Story lab centers on producing narrative work grounded in social science and humanities research. Questions about this work should be directed to: hnoor@trinity.edu Dr. Habiba Noor, Visiting Assistant Professor Department of Education, Trinity University

In this podcast, we hear from Trinity University student Izabella Serbantes who spoke to three different generations: an elder from the Tap Pilam Coahuiltecan nation, a member of the Tap Pilam Coahuiltecan nation, and a Black woman who currently attends University of Texas. These three interviewees reflect on the way schools told them who they were - but not in the most rewarding ways. Bela discusses how the wounds of racism are visceral. While students have received more civil rights in schools, how has the experience of schooling framed identities for students of color in white dominant classrooms?
