Well, I have always enjoyed studying and learning about the history of people. I really believe history is such a fascinating and captivating story of us! I became more interested in ethnic and cultural studies during my education at CSUF. I found the history I was being introduced to was so vastly different to the history I was taught as a k-12 student. I learned the stories that were swept under the rug; the stories of minorities, hidden figures, and moments in time that are so crucial and relevant to our current state of affairs. I became consumed with not only learning true and real history, but becoming an ambassador or spokesperson for these accounts. I feel it's vital to relay this information, our history, to subsequent generations so they can not only make sense of the world they are living in, but understand relations, ideals and beliefs, and antecedents leading to a bigger picture.

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. A growing body of research from education scholars shows that an Ethnic Studies pedagogy taught at the K-12 level exposes students to an empowering and academically rigorous curriculum that has proven positive academic and social benefits to students of all races.
