    Rural Education in America with Geoff and Sky Marietta

    Geoff and Sky Marietta join Mike to discuss their book, Rural Education in America. We hear the Mariettas’ story from rural roots to meeting at Teach For America in the Navajo Nation, to Harvard Yard, and then finally to Harlan County, Kentucky, where Sky and family have deep roots. We look at how rural America is perceived both from the outside in and also from the inside in as we learn the critical role education plays in knitting together rural communities.

    It’s an eye-opening conversation that will help broaden your understanding of the problems, opportunities, and perspectives that drive rural students, teachers, families, and communities. In a time of polarization and risks of stereotyping rural America, this is a timely conversation that you won’t want to miss!
