In this episode, Dr. Berry discusses the critical role of literacy in creating equity and freedom. She emphasizes the importance of teaching children to read and makes a connection between reading and freedom. She shares the story of one community’s fight for literacy in and her speaker's own journey in coming to teach marginalized learners with a focus on literacy. Dr. Berry, a consultant, argues that poor teaching practices that conflict with the science of teaching reading are to blame for the high referral rate to special education. She shares success stories of effective reading implementations for students with cognitive impairments. The episode concludes by encouraging listeners to join the fight for literacy and equity in their communities.
