This week a student sent me an email sharing a link to a TEDtalk she thought I would enjoy. In the message, she said, “I think what he is saying in the video is something you made a huge effort to do in class.”
YES, YES, YES! I can’t describe how happy I was to hear a student not only understand some of what I was trying to accomplish, but also recognize it as part of my teaching philosophy!
Here is the TEDtalk “Can art amend history?” by Titus Kaphar.
Learn more about his work at the Jack Shainman Gallery.
