A2 - again Teaching for Change has a great set of resources that are both teacher and student facing. teachingforchange.org/educator-resou… #sschat

A2: and I would always put in a plug for watching the news for current events that can tie in as example of either bias or anti bias work. #sschat

A2 - This resource - while a little dated, has some nice lenses and approaches to the work that I think can be incredibly useful learningforjustice.org/sites/default/… #sschat

A3 - I am not in the classroom, but this question still occupies my mind as I see my former students grappling with the struggle on the socials. Hate is so pervasive and destructive. #sschat

A4: There are no shortcuts, it isn't a stand alone lesson, it is a way of being in the world. That takes time, commitment, follow through and follow up. Helping kids to see each other through a lens of respect as complex, diverse, varied humans is tough. #sschat

A4: There's a scene in Whale Rider, which I taught forever ago to MS's, that nearly shocked the room into silence. They could feel the injustice and pain of it all. That is both tough to put them in front of and to use as a teachable moment that is more than just pain. #sschat

A5: I ran across this resource for elem students/teachers in my work today - from Erin Shadowens and edutopia edutopia.org/article/critic…

A7 - The Creator was a ride. #sschat

This is the work. And it is work at all levels of this process... For the student, the advisor, the admin, the mentors, the parents. But this is definitely the work worth doing.

This moment was a decade in the making! So good!!!

I'm in! #eauclaire #harriswalz

What a day! I've seen many political rallies over the years, there was a huge turnout and a ton of energy at the #harriswalz2024 event in #eauclaire.

The WI teacher Governor... Hyping fellow teacher Walz. Making Wisconsin jokes... Harris and Walz go together like custard and curds. #eauclaire #HarrisWalz2024

I am so excited to announce the book tour for BY THE FIRE WE CARRY! I am so happy I am well enough to travel. I am still dealing with photophobia, so the events will have low "mood" lighting, lol, but I can't wait to connect irl again! I’ll also have virtual events!

Shared with me through Audrey Watters - Second Breakfast post - theconvivialsociety.substack.com/p/if-your-worl… - I've read it three times in the past week. I think we are going to need more reminders about attention, disenchantment as the days go on.

"9 Ways Schools Can Improve Life for Teachers and Students" is a NEW Education Week post with Diana Laufenberg edweek.org/leadership/opi…

I've left this pinned to the top of my Twitter profile for 4 years. Looking forward to updating it soon. #deepbreath
