Philly Education Stories uses storytelling and theater as a cultural strategy to deepen relationships between educators, students and organizers in Philly; explore experiences with schooling and the criminal punishment system, and amplify collective visions for a transformed education and world.
Listen to the podcast on any of the following platforms:
In Season One, a group of Philadelphia public school students and educators share stories of confronting policing both inside and outside our schools, as well as creative and collective interventions toward abolition and healing.
The storytellers featured are Black youth and a multiracial group of educators, who far too often are vilified, stereotyped or dismissed by mainstream media. With their experiences at the center, they take listeners on the journey from what is to what should be, pushing back against the daily and structural violences that Philadelphians have been forced to normalize and numb ourselves to, and instead, share a joyful blueprint for the world and life that we deserve.
For our second season, we are hosting roundtable discussions with students about pressing topics in their lives.
