Happy Memorial Day, New EDU-ers! We are so excited to have one of our very good friends on the podcast this episode, Brandon Fleming. He has a brand new book coming out, TODAY! Miseducated, A Memoir is the story of Brandon's transformation from a "drug dealing dropout to an award winning Harvard educator" all before the age of 27. We have a great conversation about the lifelong effect of education on every single child and how the world relies on teachers, showing up, despite the conditions. We want you to realize how much power you have as an educator, and the impact that you have on those around you. -- Get Your Teach On returns this summer!
