The methodology of the late Paulo Freire has helped to empower countless impoverished and illiterate people throughout the world.

- Teaching While White Podcast
Over 80% of teachers in the U.S. are white. But most don’t know that their whiteness matters. TWW seeks to move the conversation forward on how to be consciously, intentionally, anti-racist in the classroom. Because "white" does not mean a blank slate. It is a set of assumptions that is the baseline from which everything is judged; it is what passes for normal. This means if you are not white or don’t adhere to those assumptions, you are abnormal or less than. TWW wants to have conversations about those assumptions: what they are, how they impact our students, and how we can confront our assumptions to promote racial literacy - What Anti-racist Teachers Do DifferentlyThey view the success of black students as central to the success of their own teaching.
