In our 9th episode of What the Family Studies? we meet Sharon Gordon.  After working as family studies for 15 years, Sharon began a new position as a K-12 Equity Consultant at the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board in January of 2021. In this role, Sharon works with a team of 6 others to support the implementation of the board's Equity Action Plan.   During this episode we discuss how we as Family Studies teachers can engage in decolonizing anti-racist, anti-oppressive frameworks within our classrooms and schools.  Sharon will also share her experiences working with youth in our schools in the decolonization of education.   We will also be given a sneak peak into the work that OFSHEEA has been doing in this area.
