What if we told you that the complexities of identity and experience play a far more significant role in the world of education than you may think? Join us as we unpack this intriguing subject with none other than Hannah Wilson, the co-founder of Diverse Educators. Through her lens as a seasoned leadership development consultant, coach, and trainer, Hannah provides us with a fresh perspective on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the school system. Together, we dissect the origins of Diverse Educators, a grassroots community born on Twitter and blossomed into a reputable training provider, reaching far beyond just one platform.

Our candid discussion navigates through the realm of intersectionality in education, and the surprising ways in which it intersects with data analysis. With Hannah's expertise, we uncover the power and limitations of identity labels and the generational differences that come into play in diversity work. We don't shy away from discussing the fear and consequences of getting things wrong in the school system, and how these fears can be addressed effectively.

Get ready to challenge your perceptions and gain a deeper understanding of diversity in education.
