Appreciate this latest area of focus. Appropriate to teacher appreciation week!
Tammie Visintainer
01:20:04
Love this exploration of the EMBODIMENT of ethnic studies!! Because ethnic studies isn’t just a class it is lived! 👏🏻
Marcos Pizarro
01:20:10
So powerful!
Walt Jacobs
01:20:21
Thank you for sharing your research with us multiple times, Tiffani!
Angela Espinosa

Really fascinating work. Thank you for taking into consideration the well-being of faculty!
Jahmal Williams
01:21:24
Dope! Great stuff Tiffani
Tammie Visintainer
01:21:35
The focus on teachers and teacher practices and well being is so important!! What practices have you started to see emerge as central to thriving?
Marcos Pizarro
01:21:48
This feels like a question for the whole group: What does your focus on the Embodiment of Ethnic Studies mean for our work in training teachers to do Ethnic Studies? Many teachers come at our communities with a savior mentality and embodying E.S. is way outside their comfort zone.

That is fascinating! Thank you so much Dr. Marie!!

Powerful presentation, Saugher!
Marcos Pizarro
01:44:08
Such powerful work! This might be beyond your scope but wondering: What examples of horizontal interest convergence are most inspiring and instructive to you and how might they support our work in building BIPOC solidarity in local communities?
Marcos Pizarro
01:44:23
Feels like you just started to answer that in this answer.
Tammie Visintainer
01:44:38
Love that, the positivity comes from community collective action!
Jason Aleksander
01:45:55
What are your thoughts about the use of the term "Levant" to refer to the area and cultures of Western Asia?
Marcos Pizarro

Appreciate that answer. Fascinating and so important. Thank you!!!

We can only get positive community work to the state level if we push back against the on-going imperialist forces that use division to maintain the dominant power structure. I love that Dr. Nojan is directly calling out and recognizing the power dynamics. Wondering how our students respond when presented with this?
Barbara Sasso
01:47:32
All communities need to stand up and call it out when we are moving towards repeating past mistakes
Tammie Visintainer
01:48:19
I feel shocked (and angered) so often about how much is not taught in the whitewashed version of history peddled in K-12 schools. Thank you for this important talk and work!

Really important work. Thank you Dr. Nojan!
Jahmal Williams

fa sho...thanks Saugher for your answer and your work. The discussion about how oppression from the West continues and we need to make space for what's happening currently in our literature, language, and definitions.
Saugher Nojan

Thanks everyone for all of your comments and questions!
Saugher Nojan

THis is really interesting - I'm wondering if Luis has chatted with faculty in Language Development and Linguistics in the College of Humanities & the Arts for collaboration or just to chat? David Malinowski would be a terrific contact.

I'm curious about your thoughts on the two-way bi-lingual programs and if you've had any interactions with the local versions of these programs?
Katherine D. Harris
01:55:50
@Luis -- that's what I'm here for! I can help anyone connect to H&A faculty 🙂
Tammie Visintainer
01:55:55
I love thinking about the overlap between dignity affirming practices and the embodiment of ethnic studies….thank you for this important work Dr. Poza!
Reiko Kataoka
01:56:52
On Katherine's comment: I had the exact same thoughts! Dr. Poza, please reach out to LLD!
Mark Felton
01:57:21
Impressive work, Luis. Tying into Tiffani's recent work, I'd love to think about this notion of dignity more broadly can be applied to teachers.
Walt Jacobs
01:57:35
Thank you for sharing your work, Professor Poza!
Marcos Pizarro
01:57:57
Love this framing Luis. Wondering what has been most compelling to you personally from applications of this work to Ethnic Studies teaching in our partnership at Overfelt right here in ESUHSD.
Rebeca Burciaga (she/her/ella)
02:00:33
So excited about the implications of your work, Luis, especially with the preparation of school leaders to sustain this
Susana Gallardo
02:00:46
Wow, shock of recognition. My daughter has been in SJUSD bilingual immersion TWBI for 9 yrs and it's very much this segregated dynamic you mention. Also clear that the kids recognize the prestige of the higher status English....
Heather Lattimer (she/her)
02:01:23
Thank you Luis! So appreciate your work leading our ES Residency Program with ESUHSD!
Marcos Pizarro
02:02:49
That is THE question our Ethnic Studies students are always being asked!
Marcos Pizarro
02:05:45
So inspiring that our students get to do this capstone work with a grounded scholar like Professor West! The approach that you map out demonstrates the dynamic complexity and necessity of Chicanx Studies.

Katherine D. Harris
02:10:30
Thank you! Can you say more about the Community Cultural Wealth in Action group at SJSU? (H&A has a lot of community engagement public humanities programming and we're are working to make connections across our college boundaries to collaborate. Would enjoy chatting with you more about your community engagement and ethics ideas)
Rebeca Burciaga (she/her/ella)
02:10:30
YES - so many implications for improving connections to the work our alumni are engaged in
Julia Halprin Jackson (she/her)
02:10:41
Amazing work. Forgive me if you've already shared this, but have you connected with the SJSU Alumni Association and/or the Career Center? This is super relevant to both those audiences
Katherine D. Harris

Really novel pedagogical approach! I hope this can become a bigger part of the CCS1 class, maybe with summer workshops so all CCS1 instructors can learn from your example.
Marcos Pizarro

@Katherine - I can share more about the Community Cultural Wealth In Action group as well - let's connect - rebeca.burciaga@sjsu.edu

What an incredible project! Sara West and Ryan Skinnell work in this area of mis/disinformation in social media and I bet would be super interested in your research. And we'd really enjoy having you in our Deep Humanities & Arts initiative: https://www.sjsu.edu/ha-in-action/engage/public-programming-opportunities/Deep_HnA.php (right now, it's a google group, which I'd be happy to add you to)

this is such a good idea for an assignment
Katherine D. Harris
02:25:18
Also, I wonder if you might want to add your syllabus to our nascent listing of Digital Humanities faculty research and pedagogy projects? This is perfect as a representation of explicitly what our teaching-intensive university offers in digitally-inflected projects: https://library.sjsu.edu/digitalhumanities#tab-333-3 (even if it’s a link to a syllabus, adding your work helps us all connect with each other). Would really enjoy seeing your pedagogy represented in that listing. Super important
Angela Espinosa
02:27:33
Great for practicing argumentative writing/critical thinking!
Marcos Pizarro
02:27:41
Awesome work Dr. Boyce! It's inspiring to see you engaging in African American Studies knowledge production with SJSU student scholars. I'm interested in the impacts you saw for our students who got to engage in this process with you.
Heather Lattimer (she/her)
02:27:47
Love this work!
Walt Jacobs

Can you discuss how the students felt about being Americans or being in America before and after this assignment?
Denise Dawkins (she/her)

One of my nursing students took your class and loved it.
Johnny Ramirez
02:28:51
Powerful work Travis! Amazing pedagogical approaches!
Shannon Miller

Great assignment. Did you have them respond to the social media post itself, or did the response go to you. I understand why you wouldn’t, but I was just curious.
Julia Halprin Jackson (she/her)
02:30:09
Did you observe your students changing their minds about how they themselves interpret or respond to social media?

Can you comment on your creation of “Sacred Space" and how it relates to existing religious life that youth have?
Christal West
02:44:23
Yes! The NCN!!
Christal West
02:44:38
Thats who my student connected with. Beautiful community!
Marcos Pizarro
02:45:43
Such strong and necessary work! Appreciate the return to toxic stress experienced by our young people (bridge back to Tiffani's work) and the move toward transformational resistance, healing and restoration grounded in indigenous epistemologies, sacred spaces and long-term relationships. Wondering how this changes conventional practices in our Ethnic Studies classrooms and the embodiment of E.S. that Tiffani started us thinking about.
Marcos Pizarro
02:48:07
Appreciate that analysis. These indigenous epistemologies are centered in ways of being where the sacred is not religious but how we live in the world all day everyday.

02:57:59
Thanks for sharing this important work that you are doing in our classrooms Dr. Espinosa! Wondering how we use Nepantla as a tool for the creation of vibrant 3rd spaces in our classrooms, where we engage in Freedom Dreaming with our students that they can apply in their lives? Seeing deep connections to the work of Professors West and Ramirez.
Katherine D. Harris
02:58:03
...and hoping you teach this again!

I really appreciate this work Dr. Hampton. It’s so needed, especially given all the racial bias that is rampant in medical care. I know most states/programs have a very long way to go, but wondering if there are nursing programs that are including some form of racial literacy in their admissions. This seems critical in fields like medicine, teaching, the law…
Julia Halprin Jackson (she/her)
03:14:18
is there any prep high schools or secondary schools can do to address this issue?
Julia Gaudinski
03:14:22
Many universities dropped test scores for admission criteria for this year do to COVID-19. Did nursing schools do that at all? If they did is that an opportunity to study the result?
Vincent Del Casino
03:14:43
Such a great suite of talks! Thank you everyone.
Denise Dawkins (she/her)
03:15:36
Because nursing is considered a "caring professional" the people in power do not see an issue.
Katherine D. Harris
03:17:18
What a really interesting talk about the medical community.
