Available:
I would be pleased to develop a workshop, series, or presentation personalized to your group, organization or school, building from the following themes:

• Reframing "trauma" in its historical and systemic contexts
• Culturally relevant pedagogy
• Understanding white supremacy, racial identity, and racial consciousness-raising
• Exploring the ways that white supremacy and racial capitalism are operating in and around us as individuals and organizations
• Challenging deficit thinking about students, families, and communities
• Ethics and politics of educational research

​I am also available for individual or small group consultation with educators at all levels on topics such as syllabus design, constructivist/active learning pedagogies, and more.

"We bring our current experiences to the table, and Dr. Mason brings understanding and knowledge that allows us to think of equitable next steps. Rather than providing us with the resources that are dated and out of touch, she asked questions that help us form our own opinions and stand up for students’ rights." -Former group participant, elementary teacher

​“If teachers are serious about educating all children, we need to challenge our own implicit biases that impact our classrooms. This presentation challenged me to change my narrative about how to deal with students who struggle in school.”
