Cathead Conversations
by Charles SnyderA series of conversations between myself and former students and colleagues of mine at City Arts and Tech HS in San Francisco. The conversations take on a variety of topics, from being an empath to artistic conventions to race, identity and social media. If nothing else, they showcase the amazing network of talent that flourished in that community and the struggles that define us.

E11: Matt is CAT
1h 24m · PublishedMatt is so CAT that I made him the cover photo for the podcast. These interviews just keep getting better but I don't know how anyone can top this. Matt is a polished speaker and he talks about art, teaching and the art of creating controversy to drive engagement.
E10: Alyssa on going from CAT to Xavier (an HBCU)
1h 1m · PublishedAlyssa talks about CAT and how it prepared her for college. She has valuable insight about the transition from high school to college and interesting reflections on differences between SF and New Orleans.
E9: Shari B talks about CAT, whiteness and teaching history
1h 26m · PublishedShari talks about the history and evolution of CAT and how she earns the trust of her students. It is also very much a history lesson and a dialogue about the impact that CAT had on our careers.
E8: Ben talks about social media and social justice
58m · PublishedBen talks about his journey through education and experiences at CAT. We talk a bit about cell phones and the challenges they present in the classroom and about history and the future.
E7: Daniel Allen talks about education and entrepreneurship
1h 4m · PublishedDaniel was one of the best leaders I've worked for in all my years. He is as much of a deep thinker, skilled communicator and active doer as anyone I've known, so I was really lucky to get him to come on and share his reflections on CAT and his views on education in general.
E6: Tee talks about her problack podcast
52m · PublishedTee and I talk about her experiences at CAT and about race from our different perspectives. She brings an interesting lens as a student with a powerful voice that didn't feel like that voice necessarily came out at school.

58m · PublishedTim talks about life, wisdom, his children's book and rides 8 miles with 2 children in tow while I sit on my chair. We talk about education and he points out how people of all different backgrounds relate through struggles and trauma.
E4: Cresencio Tano shares valuable criticism
1h 0m · PublishedCres talks to me about his experiences at CAT and UCLA and since graduating college. He has valuable things to say about social media and what he shares about the transition from CAT to college is incredibly important. Not to place blame on CAT, but, at least imo, to draw attention to a major challenge in addressing systemic racism within our academic institutions.
E3: Thai on the word ethnic
35m · PublishedThai was nice enough to chat with me about a recent facebook post where he cautioned people about using the word ethnic to refer to anything that's not white. It was a very interesting conversation about identity and humanizing people who've been dehumanized.
