THE CHAIR (S1/Ep69) — BPS RED FLAGS
Hello Beautiful People,
I’m Your Host Dreme.
I’m a Black woman, an educator turned tech entrepreneur but still an educator. Building a platform called THE CHAIR is a Black and Brown centered tech platform dedicated to supporting people on their hair journey. You can design hairboards, connect to hair stylists, and share hair care tips all in one space for a more joyous and streamlined experience. I built THE CHAIR Podcast to highlight hair journeys. A reminder to keep creating magic. As people sit in THE CHAIR you will get more than just hair stories. You will be immersed into experiences surrounding education, entrepreneurship, and identity. I hope you enjoy listening to my stories and the stories of my guests as we sit in THE CHAIR.
THE CHAIR (S1/Ep69) — BPS RED FLAGS
In this episode, I share a story about a short stint working directly in a Boston Public High School in partnership with a Community College. I highlight the significant moments that are referenced as flags, signals, and challenges when it comes to working in a school that does not center students or hold them accountable with a created culture of low expectations. Come learn from my experience to better your craft and make change in your educational spaces. Enjoy!
