What does it take to move from "harmful jokes" to a culture of genuine kindness? In this episode, we sit down with three middle school students who are proving that creating a safe, inclusive environment isn't just a goal for teachers—it's a mission led by the students themselves. They discuss their proactive work in addressing identity-based harm and the specific initiatives they’ve launched to empower their peers. Joining the conversation is Nick Haisman-Smith, who provides expert context on the social-emotional frameworks that support these student-led efforts and the importance of fostering psychological safety in schools.
In this episode: Luca (Grade 8), Diya (Grade 7), Eliza (Grade 6), Grade 8 Humanities teacher Dee Willey, and Nick Haisman-Smith (Institute For Social and Emotional Learning)
