"Not Another White Man in Charge"

Podcast co-host and co-editor of the book ⁠From White Folks Who Teach in the Hood⁠, sam seidel speak speaks with Adam Weinstock. Adam is a lifelong educator committed to the unrealized potential of public education and is passionate about helping teachers be as impactful as possible. Raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts, he has taught, coached teachers, and helped lead schools in New York City, and he now continues the pursuit of his calling from just north of NYC. He is also the author of an essay in From White Folks Who Teach in the Hood. In the essay, titled “Not Another White Man in Charge,” Adam walks readers through the evolution of his approaches to classroom discipline with his students. In this episode, he shares a story of an interaction with a student that has haunted him for ten years and talks with sam about the conundrum of stepping into leadership positions to interrupt unjust systems of privilege/oppression and thus becoming “another white man in charge.”
