An Introductory Workshop on The Social Biography and Paulo Freire for Engaging Education/University of California at Santa Cruz
From Trauma to Transformation: exploring an intersection between empowerment-based trauma therapies and grassroots critical education Associate to Margaret Schilling LPC, Portland, Oregon
My
work in education has focused
on
introducing
young working class and people of color to the social movement, the
development of conscious and competent community leaders, and
advancing the theory and practice of grassroots critical education. I
was inspired and mentored by Paulo Freire and developed my "chops"
alongside longtime US popular educators such as Raul Anorve
(IDEPSCA, Los Angeles), and
Klaudia Rivera (El Barrio Popular Education/Long Island University,
NYC).
I'm honored to be an advisor, mentor, trainer, and ally to The Center for Young Women's Development (San Francisco), DEBUG (San Jose), Youth United for Community Action (East Palo Alto), Engaging Education (UC Santa Cruz), Represent 2 Witness-Critical Faith (Bay Area), IDEPSCA (Los Angeles) and Critical Education for an Engaged Community in Honolulu. All of these folks are co-creators of liberation- centered education.
