Whose Education Labor Matters?
On Thursday, October 1, 2026 from 12:00–1:00 p.m. ET join the Educational Experiences Qualitative Research Hub (EEQR) at the Everyone Graduates Center at Johns Hopkins University for a conversation with Dr. Bianca J. Baldridge, associate professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and author of Laboring in the Shadows: Precarity and Promise in Black Youth Work.
Dr. Baldridge will explore the essential yet often underrecognized role of youth workers and community-based educators, the challenges they face, and how Black youth workers use innovative practices, “freedom dreaming” and joy to create opportunities for young people.
