The TODOS: Mathematics for ALL Podcast explores the intersection of mathematics education, social justice, and identity. Season 4 brings in new hosts, Theodore Chao and Shari Kaku, to amplify the voices of educators, activists, and community leaders who challenge traditional norms and reimagining math education as an inclusive and humanizing practice. Season 4 focuses Invisibility & Hypervisibility in Mathematics Education: An Exploration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Mathematics Identities. Hosts Theodore Chao and Shari Kaku, both Asian American mathematics educators, engage with guests in deep, narrative-driven conversations that challenge conventional narratives and stereotypes, like the model minority myth. These discussions uncover racial and cultural dynamics, drawing connections between Asian American and Latinx/e students’ experiences, shared struggles, and pathways to self-determination. Whether you're an educator, advocate, or simply curious about how math intersects with identity and justice, the TODOS Podcast invites you to join these conversations and explore the transformative power of mathematics to uncover hidden narratives, foster solidarity, and reimagine equitable education.Thanks to Dr. Maria Zavala, founder and previous hosts of the TODOS: Mathematics for ALL podcast.

Episode 7: S4E7 (Dis)Ability Justice in Mathematics with Paulo Tan
In this episode, Dr. Paulo Tan shares his powerful journey as a critical special education math educator navigating Asian American identity, assimilation, and advocacy for disability justice. Together with hosts Theodore Chao and Shari Kaku, Paulo reflects on the systemic inequities of mathematics education, the isolation of marginalized students, and the need for a revolutionary shift toward truly inclusive and humanizing classrooms. From personal stories of his immigrant experiences to reimagining "math of all students," this episode challenges listeners to rethink ableism, stereotypes, and what it means to agitate for justice in math education.Transcript for the main session is here.Transcript for the reflection is here.
