"Nobody's asking how I feel." Students have a lot of thoughts about virtual learning and classrooms re-opening. It's time more people listened to them. bit.ly/2EwiyGd
I posted on FB about my books, someone replied that I shouldn't be able to wear politics at school. #BlackLivesMatter is not politics. Valuing the lives and rights of Black Americans is what is right.
A black person shouldn’t have to be perfect or extraordinary or a college grad or a parent in order to explain why they deserved to not be shot by a police officer. This is a simple concept.
I 💛 this. As designers of online learning experiences, teachers may not have a clear idea of how complex or time-consuming tasks will be for students. Planning Lessons With the Student Experience in Mind edutopia.org/article/planni… #onlinelearning #blendedlearning
I keep thinking about this....and how this can be used/adapted for any level student...#layers @BenWalksAway
Did you know the Chicago Police Department Budget didn't double or triple from 1945 to 1970, it grew by 900%?
Don’t let up on prayers for Jacob Blake and his family. Thank God he survived in the physical, but the mental, emotional and spiritual trauma is multi-layered and multi-generational. He was shot 7 times...in the back...in front of his sons. Police must be held accountable.
We hold Jacob Blake and his family in our hearts as their trauma reverberates across the country. Systemic racism in policing, health-care, education, and our economy is a national emergency. We join our communities in calling for accountability, justice, and policy change.
Hundreds of New Yorkers have gathered in Times Square to protest the cops who shot Jacob Blake. No justice, no peace. #BlackLivesMatter
