Note sull'episodio
In this episode of the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, Dr. Renee Jordan continues the Embracing Digital Literacies (D2.1) lesson by walking listeners through two powerful forms of digital interaction: streaming and teaching.
We explore how going live, sharing video, hosting workshops, and teaching online can be more than content creation—they can be acts of visibility, community care, and professional empowerment. Drawing from reflective prompts and real-world examples, this episode invites listeners to think critically about how they use streaming platforms and digital teaching tools to engage others, share knowledge, and build meaningful impact.
Centering the work of Latinas, Afro-Latinas, and Black women across media, business, tech, and education, this conversation highlights how culturally grounded storytelling, community building, and ethical use of digital tools can transform audiences into learners—and learners into collaborators.
This episode is for educators, creators, students, professionals, and anyone curious about how to show up online with intention—whether you’re teaching one person or streaming to many.
