What happens when we stop trying to “beat the odds” and start rewriting the whole system?
In this special guest feature on KPFT’s Growing Up in America, Jacob Newsome—founder of Power of the Narrative and Sinclair Scholars—sits down with hosts Bob Sanborn and Carolyn Roberts to unpack how trauma shows up in public education, why most school systems fail to address it, and how narrative healing can change the game.
Topics include:
Why “trauma-informed” education is rare—and necessary
How poverty and identity shape student outcomes
What it really means to “rewrite your story”
Equity, resilience, and systemic transformation
This isn’t just a segment. It’s a call to build a new kind of education—one rooted in honesty, care, and healing.
Recorded at KPFT 90.1 FM Houston Interview originally aired June 11, 2025
