I have been a NYC public school teacher for 7 years and have taught at both the middle school and high school levels.  I have a BA in History from Pennsylvania State University and a MA in Social Studies Education from Teachers College, Columbia University, as well as a New York State professional teaching certification.  I've completed the Level 3 certification from the Center For Racial Justice in Education and have led professional developments on discussing race in the classroom through the New York City Mastery Collaborative.  I have a strong passion for music and have taught multiple music history classes, including History of the Blues, Rock n' Roll & Teenage Rebellion, and Hip-Hop History.

The Bikini Kill song contains moderate use of profanity.  While not excessive, parents/guardians should note that this class is best suited for mature students.  I have chosen to include this song due to the value I think it holds as a primary source for learning about the ideals of the movement.
