I earned a degree in developmental psychology and worked with a child development center at my university and I only remember Dr. Clark being referred to as the wife who assisted her husband Dr. Clark! I also went further with Montessori education methods and still no mention of this amazing woman☹️ History truly is a big ole bag o' dicks!!!! Thanks Nathan for sharing this groundbreaking, progressive, and badass Queen ! 🥂🥂🥂
I got my teaching degree and actually two further teaching degrees and Dr. Clark’s name and studies were never brought up. It was all Piaget, Maslow, etc. we studied the court case, but I wish her name had been brought up. Nathan, thank you for this important Queen and sharing her legacy with us.
