During this ExpandEd Conversations episode, we hear from Jessica Jones, a non-binary educator and activist specializing in contemporary literacies and LGBTQ+ justice. They have served as an educator in various capacities for ten years, with most of their career spent as a high school Language Arts teacher. Early in their teaching career, Jessica observed the numerous barriers that queer and transgender students face within our education system and was inspired to challenge these inequities through both student advocacy.and youth empowerment. It is Jessica's strongly held belief that our work toward a socially just education system must include unconditional support and inclusion of our LGBTQ+ youth.
