“Lessons from the Literature” sessions begin with a short overview of key research on a pedagogical framework followed by a roundtable discussion that connects these findings to classroom applications. In this session, we will explore Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy, a framework that “support[s] young people in sustaining the cultural and linguistic competence of their communities while simultaneously offering access to dominant cultural competence.” (Paris 2012, 95)
