Members of Congress recently introduced legislation that would help ensure all public school teachers earn a livable and competitive wage that is at least $60,000 a year and increases over the course of their career. Our nation's teachers deserve a livable wage!

"I have a vivid memory of sitting in my AP U.S. History class. When the topic of slavery came up, I would hold my head down and pray that my white teacher would not ask me ... to offer expert opinion on the topic." How many of us had this experience?edweek.org/leadership/opi…

Condolences to the Baker family. Blessed to have known "Cissy" and call her Big Sister and soror. She did indeed personify Grace and Grit. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

The sorrow we feel today is comforted by the legacy of joy she brought to our family and community throughout her entire life. We are so blessed to have had so much time with her on earth. We will continue our fight to #ENDALZ, #EndRacism and make this world better in her honor.

“But I also get to decide what battles I continue to fight. And I have decided that instead of fighting to prove I belong ...I am instead going to work in the legacy of a university not built by the enslaved but for those who once were." @nhannahjones said that. Did that.

On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."
