The Talk<\/h2>\n

Young people have woken up many adults in the country by their work on the streets this year. They command attention. However, strategies for developing youth power for radical Black, Latinx, and Indigenous adolescents have only begun to surface in public schools. Current strategies focus mostly on culturally relevant pedagogy and restorative justice\/anti-carceral initiatives–which are certainly important. We can go further. This talk will center on sustaining youth insurgencies through employment, organizing, and educational strategies used in the Baltimore Algebra Project and rooted in the Black Freedom Struggle.
\nThis talk will follow the Education Studies faculty meeting<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

About\u00a0Jay<\/span>\u00a0Gillen<\/span><\/h2>\n

Jay<\/span>\u00a0Gillen<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0has taught and organized in and around Baltimore City Public Schools since 1987. In 1994, after a 2-year organizing campaign, he became teacher-director of the\u00a0new\u00a0Stadium Middle School, the first community-controlled public school in Baltimore in many years. Working with graduates of the Stadium School,\u00a0Gillen<\/span>\u00a0developed the peer-tutoring Baltimore Algebra Project (BAP). He is currently helping to design youth-led math research centers and to develop a peer-to-peer youth enterprise incubator.\u00a0Gillen<\/span>\u00a0is the author of\u00a0Educating for Insurgency: The Roles of Young People in Schools of Poverty<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0The Power in the Room: Radical Education through Youth Organizing and Employment.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
