Taking a history class can be exhausting for those who don't enjoy the subject. If we can find different ways to connect the material to our lives, it is much easier to digest it. Here are some tips to help you get through! #history #historyclass #college #highered https://bit.ly/3UTg7Pj

A table needs a minimum of three legs for stability. And the fourth component, the table, becomes exactly that through its supporting legs. Check out the three points of our pedagogical triangle. These legs together provide the balance needed for whole-student education. #facinghistory

Brainstorm With Me - Sucessful Examples Wanted! I have spent time with some of our community members in Happy Hills and our South Central Winston-Salem communities, as well as some of our city leaders. In every conversation I sense there is a concept all groups are struggling to name/describe or conceptually understand which is Spatial Justice. Here is what I am hearing from both sides: Community members - Want development! I added the exclamation because these communities are enthusiastic about development. The community doesn’t nessisarily want/need control. The community just wants to help in shaping a just solution that respects and acknowledges the community while recognizing and moving beyond unjust history. To the historically impacted community development should recognize the historic occupation of formerly enslaved peoples, the thriving economic community erased by “urban renewal”, and protecting the memory of the community, which formed and shared current lived memory, of the subsidized housing community that existed in the space. Until replaced by the current dense mid-rise housing community that occupies the space today. The community wants affordable housing but they are anxious, justifiably so, that “affordable” does not include those community members who currently or have historically occupied the space. Civic Leaders - “We need more affordable housing”, when I probe this I hear reasoning like, “we don’t have enough affordable housing for our workforce demands and professionals”, “more people want to live downtown”, or “We need more walkable communities like city X.” I’ve found that often times these leaders come with a private developer solution. The two developers I have met, to the community’s point, disregard any Spatial Justice concepts. They are purely capital motivated and presented under a thinly veiled buzzy economic development guise. The sense that civic leadership seems to convey at times is somewhat lacking a realistic perspective, or the community of impact’s voice is not present. I say this because often times the faces in the conversation look a lot like me. When I ask about the increase in investor owned properties in our community, who are removing capital from our community and in some cases country, while reducing the affordability of single family homes, limiting inventory and affordability aalong with the capacity for single family capital wealth accumulation. The solution, “we need more luxury affordable multi-family condominiums”. This is usually followed by the question “define affordable?” The response usually means a combined family income of $150k , but honestly what is being described currently in the community requires a $175k income. My fear is that this approach perpetuates further injustice and is a poor profit motivated strategy when there are other potential ways of leveraging existing resources and wealth. Do you have any good examples of Spatially Just development you can share?

Couldn't agree more Mark Heywood. The whole piece is worth reading but the end is especially poignant. #HistoryMatters! "We need history! Yet at this moment it seems to me that what we are experiencing is the dea(r)th of history. History features very little in political discussions or media analysis, and certainly not in informed decision-making. That’s not entirely surprising: history has been devalued at all levels of education and media; our archives, the repositories of history, are underfunded, undermaintained and left in wilful disarray. Instead, we are encouraged to be a generation obsessed by everything that is shiny and superficial in the present. All this ignores the fact that understanding the past, through the portal of history, is a life skill that is vital to the practice of democracy and understanding ever-shifting societal patterns."

I found this brief piece by Perry Glanzer on “Internalizing God’s Virtues” to be an interesting glimpse into the place of moral formation in higher education from a Christian perspective. Take a read:
