This is how the world keeps going.” Kimmerer describes how each plant provides a necessary element that allows all three to thrive in abundance: the beans bring needed nitrogen as they climb the corn and the squash offers shade and stability. Planted together, these three plants thrive based on their specific contributions. This emphasis on relationships is echoed in nearly every discussion of social moments that prioritize justice, community and collective action. Social change happens when people work, imagine and create together, depending on collective strengths and shared visions of the world. Writing about our need for collectivity, \u003ca href=\"https://marsal.umich.edu/directory/faculty-staff/carla-shalaby\">Carla Shalaby\u003c/a> notes that “No single one of us has the creativity, the courage or the skill enough to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/59777/want-more-meaningful-classroom-management-here-are-8-questions-teachers-can-ask-themselves\">teach love and learn freedom alone\u003c/a>. This work that requires an imagination developed together, the courage of a community and the combined skills of each member of that community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of intentional commitment to community is not simple, easy or tidy. At its best it is messy, slow, complicated, challenging, hard and sometimes painful. It requires a deep and abiding form of trust between people — a trust that we can sustain our connections through conflict, disagreement and inevitable change. Tending to relationships takes time and intentionality. Kimmerer points to the challenge that we are socialized for a transactional economy. Even in education settings where we rely on relationships to teach and learn together, we are submerged in a social system that still assumes the teacher as the provider of learning, the student as the recipient and the end result as a passing grade. SJAE’s reliance on collaboration means that we must attend specifically to building and nurturing relationships rooted in mutual trust. We must, in the words of activist \u003ca href=\"https://adriennemareebrown.net/\">adrienne maree brown\u003c/a>, “move at the speed of trust.” For educators \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/60686/why-teach-the-arts-large-randomized-test-finds-improved-student-behavior-and-no-harm-to-test-scores\">working within the constraints of bell schedules and funder requests\u003c/a>, this is often a very hard shift in pedagogy. To move at the speed of trust, to truly allow time and breathing room to tend to the complexity of building and sustaining relationships means we may need to readjust the\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/59170/small-steps-to-make-creativity-part-of-your-daily-routine\"> scale of our artworks\u003c/a>. While it may be controversial to state, the priority in SJAE lies with people, not artworks; we must uphold commitments to the people with whom we work above any final artwork.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To focus so intentionally on the relationships we have with others requires us to be both vulnerable and open to change—to allow ourselves to be challenged and transformed by different perspectives and ideas. As Kaba writes, “Being intentionally in relation to one another, a part of a collective, helps to not only imagine new worlds but also to imagine ourselves differently.” \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/63223/listening-to-black-girls-to-cultivate-belonging-in-middle-and-high-school\">Relationship-building\u003c/a> asks us each to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/60096/why-teachers-must-examine-their-own-ideologies-to-create-identity-affirming-classrooms\">confront the powers and positionalities we embody\u003c/a> and to be wide open to the ways in which they intersect with, bounce off of or collide with our colleagues in art-making. This form of vigilant self-reflection can be exhausting as we hold our hearts open to the constant bumping into other people. It also requires us to know ourselves well and to be gentle to our own growth as we deepen our understanding of how we are shaped by those internalized, interpersonal and systemic forms surrounding us. In her discussion of the Three Sisters, Kimmerer reminds us that, like the plants, we must embrace “our unique gift and how to use it in the world.” She continues, highlighting how we must hold both our individual gifts and our collective work simultaneously, “Individuality is cherished and nurtured, because, in order for the whole to flourish, each of us has to be strong in who we are and carry our gifts with conviction, so they can be shared with others.” This kind of “both-and” thinking is at the crux of SJAE. Everything is both-and: we are both individuals and part of communities; we live in a world where there is both painful injustice and liberating possibility; we have both expertise to share and much to learn; we are in need of both urgent solutions and patient community consensus. These generative tensions constantly shape how we relate to each other as we shift and grow in connection to the people around us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To effectively facilitate social justice art education, we must commit to the same kind of attention to our relationships as we might to a garden. Following Kimmerer’s description of the Three Sisters, it serves us well to imagine the task of relationship-building as akin to gardening. We must plan for how we will tend to our relationships, how we will continuously cultivate, how we will pay attention to what is thriving and what is wilting, how we will ensure that nothing is taking more space than needed or that outside forces are not infesting our work and how we will support each other throughout the seasons. Such metaphorical thinking can help us plan for our collective art-making. And, like any garden, nothing is guaranteed. We must be nimble, flexible and improvisational in how we tend our relationships, never forgetting that with patience and care unpredictable growth emerges.

This is how the world keeps going.” Kimmerer describes how each plant provides a necessary element that allows all three to thrive in abundance: the beans bring needed nitrogen as they climb the corn and the squash offers shade and stability. Planted together, these three plants thrive based on their specific contributions. This emphasis on relationships is echoed in nearly every discussion of social moments that prioritize justice, community and collective action. Social change happens when people work, imagine and create together, depending on collective strengths and shared visions of the world. Writing about our need for collectivity, \u003ca href=\"https://marsal.umich.edu/directory/faculty-staff/carla-shalaby\">Carla Shalaby\u003c/a> notes that “No single one of us has the creativity, the courage or the skill enough to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/59777/want-more-meaningful-classroom-management-here-are-8-questions-teachers-can-ask-themselves\">teach love and learn freedom alone\u003c/a>. This work that requires an imagination developed together, the courage of a community and the combined skills of each member of that community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of intentional commitment to community is not simple, easy or tidy. At its best it is messy, slow, complicated, challenging, hard and sometimes painful. It requires a deep and abiding form of trust between people — a trust that we can sustain our connections through conflict, disagreement and inevitable change. Tending to relationships takes time and intentionality. Kimmerer points to the challenge that we are socialized for a transactional economy. Even in education settings where we rely on relationships to teach and learn together, we are submerged in a social system that still assumes the teacher as the provider of learning, the student as the recipient and the end result as a passing grade.

With her teaching options limited by a strict curriculum and students’ learning tied to aggressive benchmarks, it felt like an impossible task. So she started to experiment to find better ways to teach her students. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In her new book “\u003ca href=\"https://www.heinemann.com/products/e12041.aspx\">Textured Teaching: A Framework for Culturally Sustaining Practices\u003c/a>,” Germán shares what she gathered from her ten years of teaching about creating meaningful, justice-centered lessons. Her framework addresses what she calls “educational numbness” in today’s students, which is a result of how testing-centered schooling calls for students to be completely compliant, sit still and do assignments. “They're not supposed to be too sad or too emotional or angry. They're just supposed to receive and consume information and be OK with it,” said Germán. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Educational numbness has been further intensified by pandemic restrictions, according to Germán. Now, as students return to school buildings and readapt to their learning environments, they are at a breaking point.

I want that passion in there because it's OK and it is conducive to learning.” She focuses on engaging the five senses to bring texts to life, incorporating ways for students to see, touch, hear, smell and even taste things that are relevant to what they are reading at the time.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">To make sure experiential learning activities are rooted in academic skill development, Germán targets moments in texts that help students analyze and comprehend six core concepts: \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cb>Characterization\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">.

For example, when Germán was reading “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” with her students, she took them to the Colorado River to help them understand how the characters would have experienced running away on the Mississippi River. She felt this experiential learning opportunity allowed her to better communicate the dangers that the character Jim would have felt as a formerly enslaved runaway. “Students touched the ground, felt the cold water, walked past branches and physically felt what the space was like,” said Germán. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, s\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">ome teachers are familiar with experiential learning because they’ve seen the ways it has gone wrong and turned into a potentially harmful simulation. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Simulations enact\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.learningforjustice.org/magazine/spring-2020/ending-curriculum-violence\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> “curriculum violence\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">” and negatively impact the emotional wellbeing of certain learners. Germán cautions educators to avoid scenarios that recreate oppressive structures or expose marginalized students to harm, such as \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://blavity.com/mother-livid-after-school-uses-her-child-to-reenact-little-rock-nine-abuse?category1=news\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">historical reenactments \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">or performing stereotypes. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“Part of what people are trying to do with these horribly terrible simulations is inspire empathy,” said Germán. “We can do that without asking people to relive war crimes, for example, or slavery,” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">For instance, one year, Germán was teaching “Night,” a memoir by Elie Wiesel about the Holocaust. Her students were having trouble conceptualizing the railroad cars that were used to take Jewish people and others to concentration camps. She started by showing her students pictures, but when they still didn’t grasp the concept, she worked with a small group of students to measure out the dimensions of the train car on the floor with cardboard. Together they wrote details from the book on the board such as the weather in the country at the time and characteristics of the cars. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.heinemann.com/products/e12041.aspx\">\u003cimg class=\"alignright wp-image-58792\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2021/11/textured-teaching-160x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2021/11/textured-teaching-160x200.jpeg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/23/2021/11/textured-teaching.jpeg 230w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\">\u003c/a>She did not require students to get inside the structure or simulate the moments described in the book because that could create harm. Instead, she had students stand around the outside and talk about what they noticed and how having a physical representation of the dimensions strengthened their understanding of the book. “That helps them to both see it, imagine a little bit and have some empathy without me saying, ‘Let's practice being in a war crime.’” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">If teachers do make mistakes that veer off into being a simulation when they’re trying to engage students in an experiential learning activity, Germán advises that they take a beat to reflect on what went wrong moment-by-moment. “Owning your mistake is going to be very important here,” she writes in Textured Teaching. If needed, teachers should get in touch with their administrators, share what went wrong and what their next steps are. Teachers can sit down with their students to apologize and clarify any incorrect information or misconceptions. “You should refrain from doing any other re-creations until you get a better grasp of the difference between re-creations and simulations and how to plan one effectively.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cb>Inviting people into your classroom\u003c/b>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Another way to facilitate an experiential moment is to have someone come to the classroom to talk to students. Germán said this adds “auditory texture” to the class. Teachers can start by asking themselves what voices are missing in their lessons and invite people who can create a more \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">holistic understanding\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> of what students are learning in class. “Often, English classrooms feel restrictive and stiff because they overwhelmingly involve reading and writing while sitting quietly at desks. This is a good opportunity to move out of the desks, get into a community circle and listen.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Germán encourages teachers to consider inviting to the classroom community members who do not speak English as a primary language. “Who you bring in communicates who you value,” she said. Bringing in other voices can also make students more aware of how certain identities have been excluded from U.S. schooling. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before welcoming speakers into the classroom, teachers can get students ready to engage with visitors. “There's got to be this foundation of how to ask questions respectfully,” said Germán. She also wants to make sure students understand how to ask questions that go beyond identity and into the content. “So that they’re not just sitting here asking you about your culture, but about how your culture impacts the thing you're talking about.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Debriefs are essential to bringing experiential activities to a close. She usually gives students three options: independent journal time, talking with a partner or talking together as a whole class. “I always offer a prompt,” she said. “I think sometimes debriefing doesn't work well because teachers just want to say, ‘What did you think?’” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Some of her tried and true prompts are “What came up for you today during this learning experience that you had not considered before?” or “Are you having a new thought about the things that we’ve been talking about?”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Experiential learning activities offer an entry point into potentially challenging subject matter and help students fully engage in ELA. While having kids get out of desks to engage in an activity that asks them to move around the classroom can make educators a bit nervous, it can result in committed learners with a better understanding of what they are learning and opportunities to apply their new knowledge to other subjects.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Lorena Germán’s Textured Teaching framework says ELA educators can engage students' senses as a way to motivate them to learn.","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1638254829,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":21,"wordCount":1546},"headData":{"title":"How to fend off 'educational numbness' with experiential learning - MindShift","description":"Lorena Germán’s Textured Teaching framework says ELA educators can engage students' senses as a way to motivate them to learn.","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":"","schema":{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Article","headline":"How to fend off 'educational numbness' with experiential learning","datePublished":"2021-11-30T06:47:09.000Z","dateModified":"2021-11-30T06:47:09.000Z","image":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/KQED-OG-Image@1x.png"}},"disqusIdentifier":"58698 https://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/?p=58698","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2021/11/29/how-to-fend-off-educational-numbness-with-experiential-learning/","disqusTitle":"How to fend off 'educational numbness' with experiential learning","excludeFromSiteSearch":"Include","path":"/mindshift/58698/how-to-fend-off-educational-numbness-with-experiential-learning","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In her first year as an English language arts (ELA) teacher, Lorena Germán remembers trying to steer her students through reading a district-assigned fiction book while ensuring they understood the text, retained what they learned and passed standardized tests. With her teaching options limited by a strict curriculum and students’ learning tied to aggressive benchmarks, it felt like an impossible task. So she started to experiment to find better ways to teach her students. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">In her new book “\u003ca href=\"https://www.heinemann.com/products/e12041.aspx\">Textured Teaching: A Framework for Culturally Sustaining Practices\u003c/a>,” Germán shares what she gathered from her ten years of teaching about creating meaningful, justice-centered lessons. Her framework addresses what she calls “educational numbness” in today’s students, which is a result of how testing-centered schooling calls for students to be completely compliant, sit still and do assignments. “They're not supposed to be too sad or too emotional or angry. They're just supposed to receive and consume information and be OK with it,” said Germán. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Educational numbness has been further intensified by pandemic restrictions, according to Germán. Now, as students return to school buildings and readapt to their learning environments, they are at a breaking point. Teachers have noticed behavioral issues such as fighting and\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.krgv.com/news/students-destroy-steal-school-property-for-viral-tiktok-challenge/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> “trash your school” challenges.\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> “We’re seeing a very visceral reaction,” said Germán. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://content.gallup.com/origin/gallupinc/GallupSpaces/Production/Cms/TGBCMS/8glunhrdqkypqkxwxqqtog.png\">\u003cimg class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https://content.gallup.com/origin/gallupinc/GallupSpaces/Production/Cms/TGBCMS/8glunhrdqkypqkxwxqqtog.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"699\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Educational numbness is especially common in ELA because it is a high stakes testing subject, said Germán.

I want that passion in there because it's OK and it is conducive to learning.” She focuses on engaging the five senses to bring texts to life, incorporating ways for students to see, touch, hear, smell and even taste things that are relevant to what they are reading at the time.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">To make sure experiential learning activities are rooted in academic skill development, Germán targets moments in texts that help students analyze and comprehend six core concepts: \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cb>Characterization\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">.

For example, when Germán was reading “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” with her students, she took them to the Colorado River to help them understand how the characters would have experienced running away on the Mississippi River. She felt this experiential learning opportunity allowed her to better communicate the dangers that the character Jim would have felt as a formerly enslaved runaway. “Students touched the ground, felt the cold water, walked past branches and physically felt what the space was like,” said Germán. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, s\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">ome teachers are familiar with experiential learning because they’ve seen the ways it has gone wrong and turned into a potentially harmful simulation. \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Simulations enact\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.learningforjustice.org/magazine/spring-2020/ending-curriculum-violence\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> “curriculum violence\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">” and negatively impact the emotional wellbeing of certain learners.

She’ll tell students to go for a walk outside and find something discarded on the ground that draws their attention. Picking up abandoned bits and pieces is part of Poor’s art practice, and when she first started volunteering at San Quentin, she would collect things from the prison’s parking lot. In the book, she describes the lot as her “hunting ground.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In class, she’ll invite students to bring back their found object and share a story they’ve created about it. “It sounds weird at first, but it gets people to connect with their creativity and the associations that they make with objects and experiences. And that’s, to me, where stories start.” She’ll then move into playing clips from Ear Hustle and discussing what people hear in them and how she and Earlonne put episodes together.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">“There’s so much [emphasis] put on the end result,” said Poor about education. “Listening and thinking is actually a valid activity. So I like to talk about that, and I like to talk about ways to pull stories out of people and give people the confidence to talk about themselves.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cb>Using hands-on learning to understand systems\u003c/b>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Danielle Devencenzi, assistant principal at St. Ignatius College Prep high school in San Francisco, begins her criminal justice class by looking at major legislation that shaped the U.S. justice system such as California’s Three Strikes Sentencing Law, the 1994 Crime Bill and landmark US Supreme Court cases. “Twelve years ago, I started to take my students to San Quentin to really understand the social justice issues facing our prison system in California, specifically mass incarceration,” she said.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/MsDevencenzi/status/961419775250350080\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hearing firsthand from incarcerated people and seeing the environment adds more depth to the books and articles they discuss as part of the class, according to Devencenzi. “I’m a firm believer that if you don’t really see what’s happening and really talk to the people who are impacted by our systems, then you can’t really be an informed agent of change.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Devencenzi gives each of her students a notebook that they’ll use to write down their reactions, observations and notes from conversations with the people they meet on their tour of the prison. In a debrief, after visiting the prison, Devencenzi has students circle up their desks to share one thing from their notebook while she takes notes that she’ll later send to San Quentin. “They always talk about the humanity of the guys and how brave they are to tell their story in front of a bunch of complete strangers,” she said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Ear Hustle first came out, her class was able to see the recording studio and meet some of the people featured in the episodes during their visits to San Quentin. “The podcast just became humanized when they met Curtis,” said Devencenzi about connecting with Curtis Roberts, who shared his story in “\u003ca href=\"https://www.earhustlesq.com/episodes/2017/9/27/left-behind\">Left Behind\u003c/a>.” Like Woods, Roberts had his sentence commuted in 2018. “It was just a month later when Curtis actually came to my classroom and visited my students again after they had met him in the prison yard,” said Devencenzi. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n\u003cp lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Curtis Roberts who served a 29 year prison sentence comes to \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/StIgnatius?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@StIgnatius\u003c/a> to speak with criminal justice students who just visited San Quentin.

There’s learning through experiencing. People who don’t necessarily think they’re educators actually can be educators,” said Poor. “I would love for that to be a lesson of ‘This is Ear Hustle’: that voices really matter and that there’s surprising stories everywhere that are worthy of being heard.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>MindShift is part of KQED, a non-profit NPR and PBS member station in San Francisco, CA.

She’ll tell students to go for a walk outside and find something discarded on the ground that draws their attention. Picking up abandoned bits and pieces is part of Poor’s art practice, and when she first started volunteering at San Quentin, she would collect things from the prison’s parking lot. In the book, she describes the lot as her “hunting ground.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In class, she’ll invite students to bring back their found object and share a story they’ve created about it. “It sounds weird at first, but it gets people to connect with their creativity and the associations that they make with objects and experiences. And that’s, to me, where stories start.” She’ll then move into playing clips from Ear Hustle and discussing what people hear in them and how she and Earlonne put episodes together.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">“There’s so much [emphasis] put on the end result,” said Poor about education. “Listening and thinking is actually a valid activity.

In a debrief, after visiting the prison, Devencenzi has students circle up their desks to share one thing from their notebook while she takes notes that she’ll later send to San Quentin. “They always talk about the humanity of the guys and how brave they are to tell their story in front of a bunch of complete strangers,” she said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Ear Hustle first came out, her class was able to see the recording studio and meet some of the people featured in the episodes during their visits to San Quentin. “The podcast just became humanized when they met Curtis,” said Devencenzi about connecting with Curtis Roberts, who shared his story in “\u003ca href=\"https://www.earhustlesq.com/episodes/2017/9/27/left-behind\">Left Behind\u003c/a>.” Like Woods, Roberts had his sentence commuted in 2018. “It was just a month later when Curtis actually came to my classroom and visited my students again after they had met him in the prison yard,” said Devencenzi. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n\u003cp lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Curtis Roberts who served a 29 year prison sentence comes to \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/StIgnatius?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@StIgnatius\u003c/a> to speak with criminal justice students who just visited San Quentin.

There’s learning through experiencing. People who don’t necessarily think they’re educators actually can be educators,” said Poor. “I would love for that to be a lesson of ‘This is Ear Hustle’: that voices really matter and that there’s surprising stories everywhere that are worthy of being heard.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>MindShift is part of KQED, a non-profit NPR and PBS member station in San Francisco, CA.

But she didn't have to leave her school in Brooklyn, N.Y., or even go outdoors to do it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley is one of dozens of students at Brownsville Collaborative Middle School who in the past year built a high-tech, high-yield farm inside a third-floor classroom. They decided what to grow, then planted seeds and harvested dozens of pounds of produce weekly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vegetables never stop coming because the crops are grown hydroponically — indoors, on floor-to-ceiling shelves that hold seedlings and plants sprouting from fiber plugs stuck in trays, each fed by nutrient-enriched water and lit by LED lamps. The students provide weekly produce for their cafeteria's salad bar and other dishes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later that same day, for the first time, Quigley and several of her schoolmates also sold some of their harvest — at a discount from market rates — to community members. It's part of a new weekly \"food box\" service set up in the school's foyer. Each of 34 customers receive an allotment of fresh produce intended to feed two people for a week. Three students, paid as interns, used digital tablets to process orders, while peers handed out free samples of a pasta salad featuring produce from the farm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley's passion for farming stems from \u003ca href=\"http://www.teensforfoodjustice.org/\">Teens for Food Justice\u003c/a>, a 6-year-old nonprofit organization that has worked with community partners to train students at Brownsville Collaborative and two other schools in low-income neighborhoods in New York City to become savvy urban farmers and consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley calls the farm experience fun. But she also credits it with teaching her the term \"food desert,\" improving her community's health — and giving her the opportunity to discover her love of kale. \"We could have been stuck eating chicken nuggets every day,\" she says. Now, thanks to the onsite farm, students have daily access to salad greens, cooking greens, and other fruits and vegetables such as cucumbers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her principal, Gregory Jackson, Jr., in announcing the food box service at a news conference, said that he recently counted more than 20 fast-food restaurants within a few hundred yards of the school. A typical student might eat three fast-food meals daily, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's why I have so many students now who are pre-diabetic already. If you don't have any healthy food options, then how can you blame them?\" he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pattern repeats in communities nationwide: Grocery stores move to wealthier areas and corner fruit stands close under competition with big box grocery stores.

Of course, urban community farms, including those at schools, cannot single-handedly fix the nation's food system — a system characterized by diets that are low in fruits and vegetables and high in sugar and other simple carbs. A shortage of healthy, affordable, accessible and reliable food options particularly affects urban residents who live below or close to the federal poverty line. And decades of discriminatory pay rates, banking practices and real-estate policies, among other factors, have prevented many black and Latino Americans from accumulating wealth, which fuels a correlation between race and income — and thus, food injustice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But local networks of small urban farms, grassroots community organizations and partnerships with nonprofits and for-profit businesses nationwide are growing stronger. That's changing how people in underserved neighborhoods think about their food choices and consolidating their voices and power as they demand better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Progress surrounding urban food justice has been incremental. \"This hasn't been an overnight sensation,\" says Dr.\u003ca href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/k-torian-easterling-48104221/\"> K. Torian Easterling\u003c/a>, an assistant commissioner at the New York City Department of Health. Easterling serves on a food advisory council that works on food and nutrition-related issues in Brownsville and East New York, another community in Brooklyn. \"There's been a lot of organizing and community building that's been happening. In particular, a lot of the community garden farmers and urban agriculturists have been doing a lot of great work,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>School-based urban farms are one part of the food justice solution, Easterling says. A 2015\u003ca href=\"https://farmtoschoolcensus.fns.usda.gov/\"> U.S. Department of Agriculture census\u003c/a> of about 18,000 public, private and charter school districts found 7,101 gardens based in schools. The survey did not ask if gardens were traditional or hydroponic. However, close to half of all the surveyed districts reported participating in some kind of agronomic activities, such as tending campus gardens, promoting locally grown products in schools or taking field trips to local farms. Teachers participate by integrating plant biology, nutrition, cooking and business marketing into the curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schools can then serve as hubs in community efforts to surmount some of the systemic barriers to eating healthy, such as absent or unaffordable produce in neighborhoods, a lack of reliable transportation, and cramped or non-existent kitchens in small apartments. It's a little early for significant impact data from the Brownsville farm, but it has already so transformed the school's culture and conversations surrounding healthy food access that it recently changed its name to the Brownsville Collaborative Middle School of Agriculture and Technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of studies\u003ca href=\"http://www.farmtoschool.org/Resources/BenefitsFactSheet.pdf\"> cited by the National Farm to School Network\u003c/a>, established in 2007 to support such efforts, reveal the public health and educational benefits of exposing children to healthy, appealing food. For instance, in one \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewtrusts.org/-/media/assets/2016/12/school_meal_programs_innovate_to_improve_student_nutrition.pdf\">nationally representative survey\u003c/a>, 42 percent of school nutrition directors reported that students ate more fruits and vegetables after the school added a garden. Similarly, a \u003ca href=\"https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__foodcorps.org_cms_assets_uploads_2016_06_FoodCorps-2DCreating-2DHealthy-2DSchool-2DEnvironments-2DTeachers-2DCollege.pdf&d=DwMFaQ&c=E2nBno7hEddFhl23N5nD1Q&r=csy4yufLKIminpmXiymfLw&m=PqCcYtNDhTBiQ4T-_96MIDaeCn9N2UrYfGB8Gcet0gc&s=AgbQQySXcUEaGbruBHuUVr4Hj-paWed5QRmnB6fLgb8&e=\">2017 evaluation of 24 schools\u003c/a> reported that students in schools with more hands-on learning, including cooking and gardening activities, ate triple the amount of fruits and vegetables as students did in schools with less of this kind of learning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Communities seem to benefit, too. For example, a \u003ca href=\"https://www.uvm.edu/crs/reports/2006/BSFP_Execsumm06.pdf\">2006 study\u003c/a> of efforts to address food insecurity in Burlington, Vt., and integrate more local foods into school meals found that many schools started gardens to help accomplish this goal. Community awareness of food and nutrition issues also increased, the study found: The city school board passed a school food action plan, and the state legislature passed a wellness and nutrition policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hydroponic and aquaponic systems (which receive nutrients derived from the waste of fish living in the water that feeds plants) have cropped up at hundreds of schools in New York City and beyond. \u003ca href=\"https://nysunworks.org/\">NY Sun Works\u003c/a>, a nonprofit that was involved in building Teens for Food Justice's first farm in the Big Apple, has built \u003ca href=\"https://nysunworks.org/\">a total of 96 hydroponic greenhouses\u003c/a> that serve as sustainability science labs for students at schools in New York and New Jersey.

For starters, yields can be 10 times as much as those of a traditional farm, according to\u003ca href=\"https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/12/6/6879\"> a 2015 study\u003c/a>. That study also found that hydroponic greenhouse farms use 10 times less water than conventional ones, but the greenhouses do require significantly more energy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, startup costs for hydroponic farms can be high — especially for school districts. But companies that make and sell equipment for hydroponic farms, such as lighting companies, as well as medical and wellness centers, often help by donating funds or equipment to programs or systems in schools, says\u003ca href=\"https://sha.cornell.edu/faculty-research/faculty/haf3/\"> Heather Kolakowski\u003c/a>. She teaches a food justice and nonprofit social enterprise course at the Hotel School at the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And unlike most traditional farms, which yield little to nothing during the months that school typically is in session, hydroponic farms can operate year-round, giving school kids continuous access to produce. \"Hydroponic farms in schools help to increase children's willingness to try fresh fruits and vegetables because they are learning about it and involved in growing it,\" Kolakowski says. \"It has a more positive impact than saying, 'Here, try this salad.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>School is now out in Brownsville and throughout New York City's public schools, but the farm — and the new weekly food box service — will keep running through the summer, manned by a farm manager, four paid student interns and five student volunteers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rose Quigley, the kid who now loves kale, will be one of the summer volunteers. And the big picture of the impact of her school's hydroponic farm and produce is not lost on her. \"We actually like it to get to take it home,\" she says, \"and maybe even parents get to take it to their friends and spread the word.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Robin Lloyd is a freelance reporter and editor, and a faculty member at New York University's Science, Health and Environmental Reporting Program. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

But she didn't have to leave her school in Brooklyn, N.Y., or even go outdoors to do it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley is one of dozens of students at Brownsville Collaborative Middle School who in the past year built a high-tech, high-yield farm inside a third-floor classroom. They decided what to grow, then planted seeds and harvested dozens of pounds of produce weekly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vegetables never stop coming because the crops are grown hydroponically — indoors, on floor-to-ceiling shelves that hold seedlings and plants sprouting from fiber plugs stuck in trays, each fed by nutrient-enriched water and lit by LED lamps. The students provide weekly produce for their cafeteria's salad bar and other dishes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later that same day, for the first time, Quigley and several of her schoolmates also sold some of their harvest — at a discount from market rates — to community members. It's part of a new weekly \"food box\" service set up in the school's foyer. Each of 34 customers receive an allotment of fresh produce intended to feed two people for a week. Three students, paid as interns, used digital tablets to process orders, while peers handed out free samples of a pasta salad featuring produce from the farm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley's passion for farming stems from \u003ca href=\"http://www.teensforfoodjustice.org/\">Teens for Food Justice\u003c/a>, a 6-year-old nonprofit organization that has worked with community partners to train students at Brownsville Collaborative and two other schools in low-income neighborhoods in New York City to become savvy urban farmers and consumers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quigley calls the farm experience fun. But she also credits it with teaching her the term \"food desert,\" improving her community's health — and giving her the opportunity to discover her love of kale. \"We could have been stuck eating chicken nuggets every day,\" she says. Now, thanks to the onsite farm, students have daily access to salad greens, cooking greens, and other fruits and vegetables such as cucumbers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her principal, Gregory Jackson, Jr., in announcing the food box service at a news conference, said that he recently counted more than 20 fast-food restaurants within a few hundred yards of the school. A typical student might eat three fast-food meals daily, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's why I have so many students now who are pre-diabetic already. If you don't have any healthy food options, then how can you blame them?\" he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pattern repeats in communities nationwide: Grocery stores move to wealthier areas and corner fruit stands close under competition with big box grocery stores.

Of course, urban community farms, including those at schools, cannot single-handedly fix the nation's food system — a system characterized by diets that are low in fruits and vegetables and high in sugar and other simple carbs. A shortage of healthy, affordable, accessible and reliable food options particularly affects urban residents who live below or close to the federal poverty line. And decades of discriminatory pay rates, banking practices and real-estate policies, among other factors, have prevented many black and Latino Americans from accumulating wealth, which fuels a correlation between race and income — and thus, food injustice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But local networks of small urban farms, grassroots community organizations and partnerships with nonprofits and for-profit businesses nationwide are growing stronger. That's changing how people in underserved neighborhoods think about their food choices and consolidating their voices and power as they demand better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Progress surrounding urban food justice has been incremental. \"This hasn't been an overnight sensation,\" says Dr.\u003ca href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/k-torian-easterling-48104221/\"> K. Torian Easterling\u003c/a>, an assistant commissioner at the New York City Department of Health. Easterling serves on a food advisory council that works on food and nutrition-related issues in Brownsville and East New York, another community in Brooklyn. \"There's been a lot of organizing and community building that's been happening. In particular, a lot of the community garden farmers and urban agriculturists have been doing a lot of great work,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>School-based urban farms are one part of the food justice solution, Easterling says. A 2015\u003ca href=\"https://farmtoschoolcensus.fns.usda.gov/\"> U.S. Department of Agriculture census\u003c/a> of about 18,000 public, private and charter school districts found 7,101 gardens based in schools. The survey did not ask if gardens were traditional or hydroponic. However, close to half of all the surveyed districts reported participating in some kind of agronomic activities, such as tending campus gardens, promoting locally grown products in schools or taking field trips to local farms. Teachers participate by integrating plant biology, nutrition, cooking and business marketing into the curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schools can then serve as hubs in community efforts to surmount some of the systemic barriers to eating healthy, such as absent or unaffordable produce in neighborhoods, a lack of reliable transportation, and cramped or non-existent kitchens in small apartments. It's a little early for significant impact data from the Brownsville farm, but it has already so transformed the school's culture and conversations surrounding healthy food access that it recently changed its name to the Brownsville Collaborative Middle School of Agriculture and Technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of studies\u003ca href=\"http://www.farmtoschool.org/Resources/BenefitsFactSheet.pdf\"> cited by the National Farm to School Network\u003c/a>, established in 2007 to support such efforts, reveal the public health and educational benefits of exposing children to healthy, appealing food. For instance, in one \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewtrusts.org/-/media/assets/2016/12/school_meal_programs_innovate_to_improve_student_nutrition.pdf\">nationally representative survey\u003c/a>, 42 percent of school nutrition directors reported that students ate more fruits and vegetables after the school added a garden. Similarly, a \u003ca href=\"https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__foodcorps.org_cms_assets_uploads_2016_06_FoodCorps-2DCreating-2DHealthy-2DSchool-2DEnvironments-2DTeachers-2DCollege.pdf&d=DwMFaQ&c=E2nBno7hEddFhl23N5nD1Q&r=csy4yufLKIminpmXiymfLw&m=PqCcYtNDhTBiQ4T-_96MIDaeCn9N2UrYfGB8Gcet0gc&s=AgbQQySXcUEaGbruBHuUVr4Hj-paWed5QRmnB6fLgb8&e=\">2017 evaluation of 24 schools\u003c/a> reported that students in schools with more hands-on learning, including cooking and gardening activities, ate triple the amount of fruits and vegetables as students did in schools with less of this kind of learning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Communities seem to benefit, too. For example, a \u003ca href=\"https://www.uvm.edu/crs/reports/2006/BSFP_Execsumm06.pdf\">2006 study\u003c/a> of efforts to address food insecurity in Burlington, Vt., and integrate more local foods into school meals found that many schools started gardens to help accomplish this goal. Community awareness of food and nutrition issues also increased, the study found: The city school board passed a school food action plan, and the state legislature passed a wellness and nutrition policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hydroponic and aquaponic systems (which receive nutrients derived from the waste of fish living in the water that feeds plants) have cropped up at hundreds of schools in New York City and beyond. \u003ca href=\"https://nysunworks.org/\">NY Sun Works\u003c/a>, a nonprofit that was involved in building Teens for Food Justice's first farm in the Big Apple, has built \u003ca href=\"https://nysunworks.org/\">a total of 96 hydroponic greenhouses\u003c/a> that serve as sustainability science labs for students at schools in New York and New Jersey. And \u003ca href=\"https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.spark-2Dy.org_about-2Dsparky&d=DwMFaQ&c=E2nBno7hEddFhl23N5nD1Q&r=csy4yufLKIminpmXiymfLw&m=C0qVQordORV5uEL4gozBAZIxaOZKLHBPPBnRN1VCC5E&s=n1X9OY4R5Dvh-Ns3D4wcfXvxcw6vtKqfu3QplBInQCc&e=\">Spark-Y\u003c/a> — a Minneapolis-based nonprofit focused on sustainability and youth entrepreneurship — has built about 30 large-scale aquaponic systems, as well as 100 smaller such systems, in Twin City schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hydroponic farms come with added benefits. For starters, yields can be 10 times as much as those of a traditional farm, according to\u003ca href=\"https://www.mdpi.com/1660-4601/12/6/6879\"> a 2015 study\u003c/a>. That study also found that hydroponic greenhouse farms use 10 times less water than conventional ones, but the greenhouses do require significantly more energy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, startup costs for hydroponic farms can be high — especially for school districts. But companies that make and sell equipment for hydroponic farms, such as lighting companies, as well as medical and wellness centers, often help by donating funds or equipment to programs or systems in schools, says\u003ca href=\"https://sha.cornell.edu/faculty-research/faculty/haf3/\"> Heather Kolakowski\u003c/a>. She teaches a food justice and nonprofit social enterprise course at the Hotel School at the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And unlike most traditional farms, which yield little to nothing during the months that school typically is in session, hydroponic farms can operate year-round, giving school kids continuous access to produce. \"Hydroponic farms in schools help to increase children's willingness to try fresh fruits and vegetables because they are learning about it and involved in growing it,\" Kolakowski says. \"It has a more positive impact than saying, 'Here, try this salad.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>School is now out in Brownsville and throughout New York City's public schools, but the farm — and the new weekly food box service — will keep running through the summer, manned by a farm manager, four paid student interns and five student volunteers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rose Quigley, the kid who now loves kale, will be one of the summer volunteers. And the big picture of the impact of her school's hydroponic farm and produce is not lost on her. \"We actually like it to get to take it home,\" she says, \"and maybe even parents get to take it to their friends and spread the word.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Robin Lloyd is a freelance reporter and editor, and a faculty member at New York University's Science, Health and Environmental Reporting Program. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.
