  Symposium is a philosophical text written by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, believed to have been composed in the late 4th century BCE. The book is a dialogue between a group of distinguished Athenians, who have gathered together to discuss the nature of love and beauty. 
  The dialogue takes place during a symposium, or dinner party, hosted by the tragedian Agathon. The guests, including Socrates, Aristophanes, and Alcibiades, take turns giving speeches in praise of love, each offering their own unique perspective on the subject. 
  Throughout the text, Plato explores the nature of love and its role in human life, examining the ways in which it can inspire us to reach for greater heights of knowledge and understanding, while also causing us great pain and suffering. The speeches given by the various characters in the text are rich with symbolism and metaphor, and offer a wide range of interpretations and insights into the nature of love. 
  At its core, Symposium is a meditation on the human condition, and the ways in which we grapple with our own mortality and the limitations of our existence. Through its exploration of love and beauty, the book offers a profound reflection on the nature of human experience, and the search for meaning and purpose in our lives.

  Fugitive Pedagogy - Carter G...

  A fresh portrayal of one of the architects of the African American intellectual tradition, whose faith in the subversive power of education will inspire teachers and learners today. 
   
   
   
  Black education was a subversive act from its inception. African Americans pursued education through clandestine means, often in defiance of law and custom, even under threat of violence. They developed what Jarvis Givens calls a tradition of "fugitive pedagogy"—a theory and practice of Black education in America. The enslaved learned to read in spite of widespread prohibitions; newly emancipated people braved the dangers of integrating all-White schools and the hardships of building Black schools. Teachers developed covert instructional strategies, creative responses to the persistence of White opposition. From slavery through the Jim Crow era, Black people passed down this educational heritage. 
   
   
   
  There is perhaps no better exemplar of this heritage than Carter G. Woodson—groundbreaking historian, founder of Black History Month, and legendary educator under Jim Crow. Givens shows that Woodson succeeded because of the world of Black teachers to which he belonged: Woodson's first teachers were his formerly enslaved uncles; he himself taught for nearly thirty years; and he spent his life partnering with educators to transform the lives of Black students.
