East Anchorage Book Club with Andrew Gray

Danyelle Kimp & Rozlyn Grady Wyche, Alaska Coalition of BIPOC Educators

Andrew Gray Season 1 Episode 13

Here in the Anchorage School District our student body is over 60% students of color while less than 15% of our teachers identify as non-white. Today we sit down with Danyelle Kimp and Rozlyn Grady Wyche, founders of the Alaska Coalition of Black, Indigenous and People of Color Educators (ACBE) who advocate for better hiring practices that address this racial disparity. But beyond that, their organization strives to improve the health and safety of our students of color, while supporting a more inclusive curriculum that honestly portrays their people’s history.
