Men of Math (M2) Fellowship
The Institute for Racial Justice's M2 Fellowship: Teaching Culturally-Informed Mathematics
Loyola University Chicago’s Institute for Racial Justice, in partnership with My Brother’s Keeper Chicago, has a current cohort of eight self-identifying Black and Hispanic/Latino male mathematics instructors for the Men of Math (M2) Fellowship.
Men of Math fellow D’Juan James shows his culturally-relevant mathematics teaching approach in the classroom with students at Butler College Prep in Chicago.
The Men of Math fellowship is an initiative sponsored by the Institute for Racial Justice at Loyola University Chicago. The fellowship aims to build a nurturing community of practice and increase the level of culturally-informed teaching among 6-12 grade math instructors.
Statistically, Black and Latino men are largely underrepresented in teaching, with mathematics teaching positions especially difficult to recruit and retain. This fellowship seeks to aid schools and districts by establishing additional systems of support in the form of a close-knit cohort. The fellowship is open to all, with Black and Latino men who teach 6-12 grade students strongly encouraged to apply.
