This week on the Huskie Conversation Cafe, your host J Pappas (they/them) is joined by the director of the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning, Professor of History at Grand View University, and author of Radical Hope: A Teaching Manifesto, Kevin Gannon (he/him).

In part one of this episode series, J and Kevin discuss the process of writing from blog to book, what it was like to write this book during this current sociopolitical climate, and the importance of diversity and inclusion in higher education.

On Radical Hope:

“From the publisher: Higher education has seen better days. Harsh budget cuts, the precarious nature of employment in college teaching, and political hostility to the entire enterprise of education have made for an increasingly fraught landscape. Radical Hope is an ambitious response to this state of affairs, at once political and practical—the work of an activist, teacher, and public intellectual grappling with some of the most pressing topics at the intersection of higher education and social justice.” -West Virginia University Press
