"The lessons we teach our students – whether overtly and intentionally or mindlessly and inadvertently --- are what will shape the world… Our goal cannot be to mirror the injustice and inequities of the broader society (and the world) but rather to provide students with the skills, attitudes, and confidence they need in order to actively transform the world."
