Is equity in education real—or just a talking point?

On this live episode of Two Mics Up, we sit down with the powerful voices behind Educators Rise: Voices of Change Anthology Vol. III to confront the biggest truths, tensions, and unanswered questions in today’s education system.

Led by Dr. Heather A. Robinson, this panel dives into:

1. The hidden realities inside today’s classrooms
2. Why educators are being asked to do more with less
3. Whether equity is being practiced—or just promoted
