The Dialectic: Virginia- What is love, banning books, and can you be a moderate in America?

The Dialectic: Elmer- Why teach foreign languages, censorship in school, and should schools be addressing gun violence?

*Disclaimer: The topics of gun violence in school is discussed, and viewer discretion is advised*  Welcome to another installment of the dialectic series! A show that aims at investigating a topic personal to someone in hopes of growing in the idea together.  In today's episode, we will be conversing with Elmer! He is a Spanish teacher in the public school system and today we discuss teaching! Specifically, why foreign language studies can be important, the threat native languages face due to lingua francas dominating society, and the role censorship may be playing in education. This idea takes us to the role of teachers in teaching on topics dealing with political and religious sentiments, like transgenderism, religion, and death. We end our discussion on gun violence in public schools. We really dig deep on everything so I hope you leave our convo with something to think about! Whether that’s about language, teaching, or teaching conditions. If you’re interested in listening to the song Elmer mentions I’ll link it in the comments below. I hope you enjoy today's show!
