Less Seen/Less Heard: Upending Effects of Systemic Racism in Education

Less Seen/Less Heard: Stories from the Margins is a podcast hosted by the Activist Lab at the School of Public Health, in which experts discuss a range of pressing public health topics.

In the most recent episode, host Craig Andrade, associate dean for practice and director of the Activist Lab, and Adaeze Okorie and Grace Landry, co-founders of New Hampshire for Antiracist Education (NHARE), discuss their work advocating for ending White-washed curricula in schools, implementing training opportunities that prepare educators to teach about systemic racism, and listening to and uplifting student voices calling for change in their local districts.

As Okorie and Landry continue to navigate their work with NHARE two years after the organization’s founding, one thing remains clear: The true nature of this work is that it’s a marathon, not a sprint.

In addition to being social activists and advocates for racial justice, Okorie is a first-year MPH student at SPH, and Landry is finishing her undergraduate degree at Drexel University.
