Politicians go with the quick tech fix rather than deal with real, gnarly, hard infrastructure -- and look where that leaves us... e.g. Toronto
"We're using words that don't track to our reality, to our infrastructure; e.g. housing is a human right" @biancawylie uwaterloo.ca/planning/news/… so much this... our narratives versus what's actually happening. I'd add 'equity' to this vocab list.

Thank you to @gritlitfestival for inviting me to talk about community, belonging, art and how a Black boy from Scarborough figured a way to fit inside and outside of all of it. This is a reminder to dream hard, please… 💭🕊️🤞🏾#BBLM #BlackBoysLikeMe
Excited to have written a chapter with @sarah_driessens @TheKyleCharron and @DenyseHorning in this upcoming volume. Excellent support from the editorial team and folks with @CEL_Elon.
The one thing that social media has made crystal clear is that there are a lot of incredibly talented and smart people in the world, who largely lack opportunity and resources...in other words, there's nothing inherently special about the people who have "made it."
Dear @Miss_Mojo, This librarian accepts your apology! Thank you ☺️ Always strive for kindness. Mister Rogers taught me it’s the best sort of magic ✨ “There are 3 ways to ultimate success: The first way is to be kind. The second way is to be kind. The third way is to be kind.”
So thankful for the opportunity to speak to the students of Thomas Street MS during their Black History Month celebration. Shared some stories about what goes on around and inside ourselves and how that shapes our outsides. They got it. Grateful. @PeelSchools #BlackBoysLikeMe
This is my mom & dad! They raised me as a library kid. My mom homeschooled me, raising me & educating me at the library. My dad’s always emphasized the importance of literacy (I’ve been reading at least 1 hour a day for a loooong time 😂) I love the library because of them 💜
@michaelharriot Looking completely moisturized, at peace and unbothered.
Thank you to @morningshowca for having me on to talk about my new book and the experiences of Blackness, identity, and belonging in Canada. Matthew R. Morris on his debut novel ‘Black Boys Like Me’ globalnews.ca/video/10268660…
omg the story of how colman domingo met his husband is just so incredible and precious ♥️
Today I saw the Rothko exhibition in Paris and I am not ashamed to say that there were moments when I cried and others where I felt in the presence of a god that I do not believe in. It was beautiful.
A message for all the teachers in the room…
A book is a book. Audiobook? Book. Graphic novel? Book. Picture book? Book. Read what you need, how you need. #amreading
This is the book you need to pick up today. Brilliant, powerful, necessary. Morris is a force of nature.
GRATEFUL.
Woohoo!! 🎉@callmemrmorris's BLACK BOYS LIKE ME is an instant @TorontoStar bestseller—congratulations, Matthew! thestar.com/entertainment/…
Two people can present the exact same content or activity, yet one will put people to sleep, while the other has a highly engaged audience. HOW we say things is sometimes more impactful than WHAT we say. Humility, charisma, & stage presence will elevate your presentations 👍🏽
