Clint Smith discusses how education can empower individuals to understand that the world is a social construction, and that it can be reconstructed and deconstructed. He emphasizes the importance of realizing that the reality we live in is not an inevitability, but rather the result of decisions made by those in power. Smith shares his personal journey of discovering the language and historical context to push back against harmful narratives about his community, and how he strives to bring that same empowerment to his students.In this clip
