Reframing Resistance: Reimaging Higher Education with Johnnie Campbell - EP 21

Care Work with Alida Miranda-Wolff

How can educators create unifying classroom spaces where resistance skills can be safely practiced and cultivated?

This is the “freedom dreaming” Johnnie Campbell and Alida Miranda-Wolff do together in this episode of Care Work. As a resistance scholar, educator, and PhD candidate, Johnnie Campbell is putting in the work to build danger-free, liberatory spaces and explore the way Black young adults experience college. He doesn’t strive to merely observe and record them; rather, he plans to use these learnings to tear down damaging higher education structures and policies and rebuild them. In his vision, higher education institutions will go on to center the experiences of young Black people and remove the arbitrary barriers that cause them to be left out.
Discover groundbreaking strategies that could reshape the college experience:

• Creating danger-free education spaces where students can show up fully
• The impact of power dynamics on collaborative learning
• The potential future of a higher education system that centers equality in the discussion
• How to prioritize self-care while you’re building communities of resistance
