Micah Heumann is an academic advisor at the University of Illinois. The document discusses their experience being an ally and what allyship means. It notes that being an ally is messy and involves dating in high school/college, supporting a chief in college, working with a deaf student, learning from touching a student's hair, and talking with a student about engineering. The document questions if one training makes a person an ally and what truly makes someone an ally. It defines allyship as a lifelong process of building trust-based relationships with marginalized groups, as recognized by those groups, not a self-defined identity.

It suggests ways to help bullied students build self-esteem and strategies teachers can use to prevent bullying.White Privilege Conference Privilege and Allyship
All day Institute delivered at White Privilege Conference 2012. As we progress in our understanding of privilege, power, and oppression, one of the toughest transitions is not only acknowledging our identities of marginalization but also our identities of power and privilege. Traditional equity and justice approaches concentrate on the deficit model – oppressed people must empower themselves to create positive change. How do we shift to a model in which those in power become allies to change systems from the inside out? Take part in an interactive workshop where we will examine the intersections of all our identities, own the power and privilege that we do have, and gain practical tools to become allies.

Hian Kehoe Powerpoint
The document discusses the personal and collective transformation of teachers to become more effective multicultural educators. It outlines six components of transformation: confronting one's identity; becoming learners of students; identifying with students; becoming multicultural; challenging racism and biases; and developing communities of critical friends. Teachers must examine their own privileges and biases, learn about their students' lives and cultures, and build respectful relationships in order to meet students' needs and promote equity and social justice.

EDUFEST 2015 at IIT MADRAS - Presentation on Middle school years by Madhav Rao
Presentation given by Mr. Madhav Rao on Middlr school years at IIT MADRAS during EduFest 2015 - 2nd International conference for school leaders.
CREATING A KIND AND CARING CLASSROOM
The document discusses strategies for improving character education and school climate. It outlines three main strategies: 1) Increasing staff involvement through professional development on topics like cooperative learning. 2) Engaging students through activities like class meetings and giving them leadership roles to address issues like bullying. 3) Building partnerships with parents by communicating the character education program and providing ways for parents to participate and support lessons at home. The overall message is that a comprehensive, whole-school approach to character education that involves and coordinates efforts of staff, students, and parents can help address issues like empathy decline, bullying, and improve academic and social outcomes for students.
Building equity by validating childhood
Raising social equity is central to professional purpose, and the language used by childcare practitioners to discuss it is pivotal in creating inclusive environments in which children can flourish. The development of respectful language can be a powerful tool for change when it validates other people’s experience. In dialogue with others, childcare practitioners can find new ways of understanding and debating inequality. In turn, the new ideas generated in dialogue may help children secure greater participation and deeper belonging. Care workers in children’s services may become more effective by being able to talk with greater courage, or ‘heart’, about equality issues. Without meaningful engagement (in other words, the true validation of others’ experience) and driven solely by professional expertise, practice is likely to continue to be seen as an add-on, dependent on goodwill and benevolence. On the one hand, tweaking the system to accommodate an increasing number of individuals with different experience may comply with imposed laws and policies. On the other, it does little to address the community’s need for a commitment to changing the core purpose of organisations. This paper explores how we might arrive at more respectful ways of working together by challenging the way people talk together about their experiences.
