He has written in Eidolon about his experience trying to get hired as a Black Latin teacher and why students of color don’t take Latin. He leads workshops for teachers around the US on language teaching. He has an MA in Classics from Boston College and in 2016 he was named Latin Teacher of the Year by the Massachusetts Foreign Language Association. John Bracey, aka on Twitter, is a Latin teacher in Massachusetts teaching Latin using the Comprehensible Input technique. Today, we’re pleased to bring you this interview with John Bracey. To push back against this, and to help elevate Black voices in Classics, we put out a Twitter call for Black classicists to use our platform to share their stories. Classics itself is a predominately white whose area of research is co-opted for white supremacist causes. The Black Lives Matter movement has been gaining renewed momentum, and hashtags like #shutdownacademia and #blackintheivory are highlighting the experiences of Black people in academia. We’re giving this episode over to talk about race in classics. Welcome to a special episode of MythTake! Rather than bring you our usual format of myth analysis, we’re doing something a little different.
