About 30 high school students at the 6th Annual Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Summit hosted by MIAA/MSAA created their own podcasts during a one-hour breakout session. This episode showcases their voices.

Unified Sports Programs 

“True Intentions” 

Misconceptions of Teenagers

Gendered Issues at School (and Student Activism)

Racism at School 

“Accepting” Others (with a focus on LGBTQ athletes)

Lack of Representation in School 


Note: These topics are in order of how they appear in this podcast episode.

To help you bring podcasting to your students, I’m sharing my slide deck from the conference breakout session with you for free. And, if you’re looking for more details on the ideas in this blog post, listen to episode 107 of the Time for Teachership podcast. If you’re unable to listen or you prefer to read the full episode, you can find the transcript here. 


Quotes: 
  • “If you’re not going to let us [say the word ‘period’]…We’re going to hang up the posters anyways…at the end of the day, you know whether something is appropriate or not and saying the words ‘period’ and ‘menstruation’ aren’t inappropriate words.” 
  • “The only way to understand a certain topic fully is by understanding different perspectives on that topic.” 
  • “I think the issue is that you can tolerate so much of this hatred that is going to these students who aren’t white, but the second that it comes to students who are white, it’s a huge deal…You’re so afraid to make this one specific group of people uncomfortable, that you make everyone else uncomfortable.” 
  • “I am the only brown student in my…class…It is uncomfortable because then when you feel when you want to say something you can’t because it’s this fear that everyone’s going to see you as a bad person or you’re sensitive or you can’t take a joke…”
