In this episode of the Lives That Speak podcast, Bryan spoke to Liz Kleinrock ’05, an anti-bias, anti-racist educator and founder of Teach and Transform. We discuss curriculum development, how teachers can approach uncomfortable topics with their students, and the importance of calling in rather than calling out.
A transracial adoptee, Liz was born in South Korea and grew up in DC before attending Washington University in St. Louis. When not in the classroom, Liz works as a facilitator for schools, organizations, and companies across the country, developing anti-racist curricula. In 2018, Liz received Teaching Tolerance's 2018 Award for Excellence in Teaching, and her 2019 TED Talk from "Education Everywhere" has been viewed more than 2 and a half million times. You can also see her on the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center’s “We Are Not a Stereotype” series about breaking down bias against Asian Americans.
