Dr. Silvia Bettez - Radical (Re)imagining S3 E4

Radical (Re)Imagining hosts Tiffany Tovey, & Libby Smith are joined by Dr. Silvia Bettez. Dr. Bettez teaches about issues of social justice in the Educational Leadership and Cultural Foundations Department here with me (Tiffany) at the University of North Carolina Greensboro. Her scholarship centralizes social justice with a focus on fostering critical community building, teaching for social justice, and promoting equity through intercultural communication and engagement.

This year we’ve chosen to focus a little less on how the work gets done and a little more on who we are in the work. That translates to ongoing attention to how we’re showing up and purposeful self-examination. We hope our conversations and guests inspire you to do just that.

Silvia offered the following resources on politicized somatics:

Finding Our Way podcast with Prentis Hemphill

The Embodiment Institute

Strozzi Institute

The Politics of Trauma by Staci K Haines

And her own article on Creating Community Commitments
