This episode of the Making After-school Cool podcast is the first installation in the two-part series focusing on the impact of Texas’ rapidly changing demographic. Within the last twenty years Texas has shifted to a majority-minority state. With the recent attention on social justice and equity, there has been a greater need for emphasis on racial and cultural sensitivity and awareness. This episode, Roberto German will join us to discuss embracing multiculturalism in an evolving community.
During this podcast you will learn about:
- Tips youth serving intuitions can use to create a welcoming space for students from a variety of backgrounds
- Training after-school staff to address social justice, diversity, and multiculturalism
