Episode104-RunningHorse Livingston, "Belonging: Teaching Culture vs. Teaching Culturally"

In this episode, hosts Karen Riley Jeffers and Abel Maestas welcome RunningHorse Livingston, to the second episode of our Belonging Series. RunningHorse Livingston has always loved mathematics and works to ensure others experience the joy and beauty of mathematics the way he knows it to be. He is the founder and CEO of Mathematize Inc., whose mission is to promote education and educationally related opportunities for Indigenous People. RunningHorse, a nationally recognized educator and consultant, has spent 13 years helping teachers across the country make sense of their roles in the age of Common Core standards and making schools more constructive places for Indigenous children. Tune in to hear how RunningHorse connects the cultural values of Indigenous People to belonging in the mathematics classroom and his explanation as to why that 60 minute time allotment for math class is the most important time of the day for our children. #NCSMBold
