Code + @Coldplay = #codeplay! We're teaming up with Coldplay to inspire students to code & dance. Create a dance to "Higher Power" — the band might spotlight yours on social media, and you could get to see the band live! Let's see what you create! Visit code.org/coldplay

Dear friends - many of you reached out with words of solidarity and a question "what can I do?". Here are some (rather simple and straightforward) ways you might want to #StandWithUkraine: 1/4

1. SPREAD INFORMATION. Follow reliable sources on social media and do not be shy/embarrassed to post and repost. You'd be amazed how many people have no clue or don't care or "can't tell anymore" - so help them understand.

2. CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES and demand response. Your city, you MP, your MEP, your political party... Sign petitions. Whatever works.

3. DONATE TO UKRAINE: You can donate to Ukrainian army or, if you are uncomfortable with that, to a long list of Ukrainian charities working with IDPs, families of the killed, ... I will a list post separately below.

4. JOIN PROTESTS: Ukrainian communities across the world are initiating protests outside Russian embassies/missions/representation and/or main governmental buildings of respective countries. Every capital/large city in Europe/USA will have these regularly. Check out and join in.

TY to those reaching out and checking in. Like many, we too feel helpless. Here are a few things you can do to #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦 👇🏼

Please note that we will be doing live streaming at the rally tomorrow ! So bring all of your amazing posters and banners ! We will also have materials available at request ! Все Буде Україна ! Слава Україні ! Героям Слава ! #Ukraine #StandWithUkraine #UkrainiansWillResist

Happy Monday! Representation (or a lack thereof) affects children's views of what jobs men and women can do. This campaign in London brings those questions to a more public stage. I'm a strong believer in visual campaigns like this and I Am A Scientist Project: bit.ly/3CncPOX
