PBS Ready to Learn:
Race and Education
is a PBS internal web-based series that focuses on upending racism and bias in education. The series is hosted by Dr. Rosemarie Allen, an expert in early childhood education and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the classroom. The series includes documentary-style interviews and animation.
As the Creative Director, I oversee the creative direction, research, and writing of the 8-episode series.
SAMPLES
James Baldwin
The animation of James Baldwin is part of a longer hybrid and video production. The quote comes from Raul Peck’s documentary, I Am Not Your Negro. In this project, Baldwin’s words are integrated in a longer learning module about the Black presence and expression of Black humanity in the face of racism.
John Lewis
In the project, we centralize African American leaders and thinkers as we pose questions about our shared humanity, race, and equity. This animation is homage to John Lewis’s journey of “getting into good trouble.” We invite participants to take the journey of getting “uncomfortable” to upend racism in education.
