AP Teacher Diversity: The Unspoken Issue in our Schools | Alex Sharpe | TEDxYouth@UrsulineAcademy

Across America, African-American and Latino students are sitting alone in Advanced Placement (AP) classes with no one who looks like them. The lack of student diversity can be contributed to to a nearly all-white AP teacher body. If more effort was placed on integrating the teacher population, the demographics of AP students would begin to diversify. Alex is a junior at Appoquinimink High School, a member of TeenSHARP, and a member of the Youth Advocacy Council. Alex is currently enrolled in AP courses, and it was his experience being one of the only students of color in these classes that inspired his TEDx talk. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
