In our last TFA PopClass, sociologist, Harvard professor of education, and published author of the award-winning book “The Privileged Poor,” Dr. Anthony Jack. Dr. Jack shared his insight on the struggles marginalized students face at elite colleges and what institutions can do to help students thrive, especially in these challenging times.

Change agents just like you were inspired by his story. To keep the momentum and conversation going, join us for our next PopClass with teacher, TED-Talk speaker, and Teaching Tolerance 2018 Award Winner Liz Kleinrock! She’ll share insight on how teaching tolerance and allyship can transform the false narratives and ignorance targeted towards minority groups.
