Adult Religious Education: Saturday, September 10, 11:00 am to 12:30 pm
KUUF Adult Education is starting the new school year with Critical Erase Theory: What Restraints Are Being Put on K-12 Teachers?, a presentation and discussion concerning the movement in many states to control what students in public schools are allowed to hear in the classroom regarding things such as “critical race theory,” social inequality, and issues related to gender and sexual orientation. Finger food will be included and this event ends in time for those who want to also attend the KUUF Summer Musical Barbecue at Beth and Paul Wilson’s home!

Our presenters are faculty members in American Ethnic & Gender Studies at Olympic College. Dr. Erin Douglas is a mother of a toddler and is committed to raising her daughter Maya in environments that empower young girls and disrupt patterns of racism. Dr. James Estrella is a former middle school teacher and is dedicated to the “Guncle” role for his nephews, nieces, and niblings who often ask questions about race, gender, and sexuality. Dr. Douglas and Dr. Estrella collaborate on curriculum development at Olympic College with students, faculty, staff, and community.
