  • Nathaniel Rouse, Director of Equity, Race & Cultural Diversity at Barrington 220 School District, focuses on the positive impact that diversity, equity and inclusion can have in schools and educational communities. Nathaniel L. Rouse is an educational visionary that strategically leverages a rare combination of scholarship and unprecedented, fire-tested experiences addressing systemic inhibitors to achievement. After serving as Principal at Oak Park and River Forest High School from 2008-2019, he is currently serving as the first ever Director of Equity, Race, & Cultural Diversity Initiatives at Barrington Community School District 220. Nate has a proven track record of challenging the status quo to successfully lead and transform educational systems to attain equitable outcomes for all. OPRF was the high school featured on the 2018 Starz Docuseries America to Me; which focused on the achievement disparities of students of color in an affluent suburban school district. In his 26th year in education, he is dedicated to transformational leadership, service, and action that eradicates the systemic inhibitors in schools that create uneven outcomes for students based upon race and ability. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

      I was fired in a reduction in force in 1991 by a high tech Fortune 50 company after 10 years of service and 2 major promotions. My boss said that I should not take it personally because I was selected by Legal because I am a white-male under age 40 (at the time). I thought that gender and race discrimination was illegal! Silly me.

    I think the one thing you can do is look into his past which schools he's gone to which neighborhoods he's lived in. Has any gone to any school that have utilized Bei standards probably a hundred percent that he will say no. His very position in life let you know that the lack of DEI standards won't keep you from achieving your goals and he has.

    He is a good speaker, I think he is proposing segregation policies. No a good example mention why DEI should be implemented in public schools. Why school staff have to be "look like me", and this will make the students feel better? Students come to school for education, not for segregations.

    Why are you not fighting for woman to build roads... Why is it not merit but colour of your skin that must be granted a position. It's not colour or diverse religion that makes, creates and builds - it's skill (and there is nothing preventing anyone in the "West" from attaining such positions, no matter how they look if they have skill). DEI activists just want a hand out and not demonstrate what is actually required - the skill, knowledge and capabilities.

      ​@@aarondj81 You said you didn't like two sentences, how about a few more. ​ From the video at 11:05 the presenter states that the purpose of public education is not about what parents want their children to learn... the goal is for them to fulfill their diverse potentials OBEYING legal and SOCIAL rules and DEI is the way forward...... uh...FAIL And you don't see the commenter's point and double down by responding rudely??? People like you need to be called out when you run from and condescend to valid stakeholders in issues that offer relevant and coherent points. I see a lot of DEI/woke theory/leftist ideology proponents run from debate, when relevant points such as that made by interested stakeholders (here) The Remnant regarding parental rights. I would expect someone with (or without) a terminal degree (look it up if needed) would be able to directly infer from The Remnants point that *parents* exist as ultimate stakeholders during child's adolescence - certainly well above educators and education systems. Public schools didn't exist in most communities but were created AND FUNDED *by parents* who now constitute the major block of taxpayer voters that hold the string that holds your beloved public education system/indoctrination camp .... they also hold a pair of scissors, so you might want to be careful there with the attitude. Education systems were chartered to *assist* with the parental responsibility of educating children. Beyond education, parents are the primary parties also bearing financial, culturalization responsibility/accountability for child rearing to adulthood. Those children *may* also incidentally be public school students. Over time, public schools start to get into a toxic feedback loop that has them imagining the students that they have been entrusted with are "their" students and incidentally children of biological parents...and they begin to try to crowd in, uninvited, into parental territory. That educators do not recognize the structural fact of parents as "above" them from an authority standpoint demonstrates arrogance, as well as structural and historical ignorance. Recognizing these issues are bundled in to the comment your responded to and coming off as you did is "emblematic" of the tired, pathetic strategy that the left so often employs to hide behind a pose of not lowering yourself to condescend to defending your woke ideology ideas and arguing from authority (look it up). *You are aware, are you not* that others reading, listening and watching content can discern baseless, ill-formed or irrelevant statements that do not warrant response from statements like the one you responded to that did, in fact, contain relevant points that should deserve significant respect, consideration and response - as was the case of the comment your replied to - .. right?? You do understand that we can see through condescension and see that it is coming from some combination of haughtiness, lack of serious concern for human outcomes of all interested parties, cowardice and an inability to articulate a coherent and well-integrated defense for the "just so" stated claims of the person in this video? Your statement of "Your response is emblematic of this country's issues" fails to engage and is utterly meaningless, vague ....also "You haven't listened to...absorbed what he said" is similarly a vague and meaningless statement in addition to being obnoxiously presumptive .... you have no idea what that commenter paid attention to or understood from the video, and ignore that The Remnant is under no obligation to gulp down the unsupported claims and assumptions this presenter made as you seem to imply. Frankly, based on your comment above, I doubt you have the ability or character to "breakdown" (BTW that would be "break down" for a verb "Dr." LOL) much of anything.

Second, your "lived experience" is yours, own it, and keep it to yourself. I have my "lived experience" you have yours, and never the twain shall meet. Clearly, you have not learned a dang thing in all of those years of "lived experience."
