Summary
We’re wrapping up Season 8 with this episode, and it’s got me thinking all about our evolution over the years. From beginning as a tiny Instagram account to starting the podcast, from working with families to working with schools, First Name Basis has grown in ways that is a dream come true!
I consult with schools across the country to implement anti-racist education. But as some of you have said, you’re not sure what that would look like, so in this episode, I’m giving all the details of what it looks like for me to work with your school!
It’s one thing to know that anti-racism is important but it’s another thing altogether to get it started. So many schools have diversity statements for prioritizing anti-bias and anti-racist learning, and getting those good intentions to be practical action is what I’m here for!
In this episode, I talk all about:
• Why it’s important to have anti-racism in schools
• What a partnership with me looks like
• How to get a partnership started
• What you can do to get the ball rolling at your school
Invite Jasmine to work with your school!

| 0:41.6 | episode of the season. I can't believe it. I always say this when we get to the end of the season, |
