The Quarantine Tapes

The Quarantine Tapes 188: Tracy K Smith

Episode Summary

“I am someone who has been eager to bring the vocabulary of justice and anti-racism into the different contexts that I inhabit, and one of them is the campus where I teach and where I feel fortunate to serve students who have a lot of wishes and needs. I think it’s been a year of working together with others to see how far we’re willing to go with this goal. But, as you may know, we’re not all on the same page, and it’s been painful to be reminded of that.”
