Episode 261 - The Education Suite Vol. 4: L'Heureux Dumi Lewis-McCoy

AirGo is excited to present The Education Suite, a collection of episodes focusing on the liberatory histories and futures of education. This suite is co-curated by AirGo fam and general genius Eve Ewing, a professor and poet whose work is at the forefront of public conversation around the ways our education system has harmed Black and Brown young people, and the ways that our school buildings connect to larger systems of inequity across the country.

On this episode, we get to know Prof. L'Heureux Dumi Lewis-McCoy. He's a professor at NYU, where his work focuses on the racial entanglements, contradictions, and challenges for students of color in suburban schools. He breaks down the myths we hold about the suburbs, the unique violences of catholic schools, where the potential for fugitivity in the cul-de-sacs might be, and who we should be listening to about what young people need.
