In this episode, we sit down with musician, author, educator, and all-around incredible human Ashley Shabankareh. Ashley shares about her life and work and how she collaborated on our latest release with longtime friend Mia Ibrahim.
Mia tragically lost their life in December 2023 and “Embracing Arabic Popular Music” is a resource that honors and celebrates their work in music education. Learn more about how this project developed and how Ashley and others are continuing to find ways to encourage culturally responsive teaching that honors and elevates all cultures, not just a select few.
You can learn more about Mia and Ashley’s book on the F-flat Books website.
