The Invisible Tax is a theory by Former US Secretary of Education John King that states teachers of color have a higher workload than other teachers. They must meet the pedagogical needs of their students like all teachers, but also deal with cultural duties such as leading DEI work and protecting students from racism, classism, and xenophobia. This leads to a higher rate of teacher burnout and causes them to leave the profession at a higher rate than other teachers. Rodney will challenge the audience to audit their support for teachers of color and Equity work by providing key guiding questions for educators. Educators will leave with a plan to support their colleagues and students and improve their learning environment in their school.
