Please send The RE Podcast a Text Message!This week, I speak with Alexandra Brown, RE Teacher, speaker, poet, and researcher.Her unique intersection between race, gender, neurodiversity, and sexuality has caused many people to put up barriers as she attempts to put her research into practice. At great personal cost, she has had to navigate these barriers.Alex speaks to us with humility and passion, from a place of pain and triumph about her journey.And wait till the end for something deeply profound.https://alybrown.com/https://blackfeministcollective.com/contributor-alexandra-brown/Support the showFind out more;Twitter: @TheREPodcast1Insta: @TheREPodcastWebiste: www.therepodcast.co.uk

S15 E9: The One About My Barriers To Research
Please send The RE Podcast a Text Message!If you are like me and really struggle to engage in and with REsearch, or know someone who does, then listen to this episode. I have left in parts I usually edit out to give you a sense at how vulnerable I was making this episode, and you will here at the end my leg bouncing with nerves. I have ADHD, so I really struggle to read things, remember things and organise new information. Listen to how Culham St Gabriel have helped me overcome my barriers to research and create some research on those barriers. I really hope it inspires you.It might also give you an insight into the ADHD minds of your students and explain how the poor behaviour they present is masking an internal struggle they can't articuate.If you want to find out more about the Culham St Gabriel Scholarship Leadership programme, then click on the link below.https://www.cstg.org.uk/scholarship-programmes/leadership/Support the showFind out more;Twitter: @TheREPodcast1Insta: @TheREPodcastWebiste: www.therepodcast.co.uk
