APA welcomes singular “they” ~ "Writers should use singular “they”: (a) when referring to a generic person whose gender is unknown or irrelevant to the context and (b) when referring to a specific, known person who uses “they” as their pronoun." apastyle.apa.org/blog/singular-…

As these universities close across the country, I'm thinking of the students who rely on school meal plans to eat, the students who don't have wifi back home, the students going back to environments where they don't feel safe. Our most vulnerable students will be most impacted.

Toni Morrison taught us to ask the question “what can i do from where i am?” everyone can carve out something to contribute. everyone can scrutinize the seat in which they sit + use it as a source for further action.

“The Southern oligarchy, which has so much power in Washington ... was created by my labor and my sweat, and the violation of my women and the murder of my children. This, in the land of the free and the home of the brave.“ Happy birthday, James Baldwin

currently reflecting on what kind of headspace caused me to include that I’m lactose intolerant in my introduction to students video

I asked: When the time comes, what would you like to be remembered for? "Someone who used whatever talent she had to do her work to the very best of her ability. And to help repair tears in her society, to make things a little better through the use of whatever ability she has."

In order to decompress from my school day stress, I am watching the debate so I can experience a whole new kind of stress

A major goal for me is to foster a love for literature in my students which requires space in class for choice reading and reading for pleasure. The far majority of my students will not be English majors, but I hope they will be life long readers. #MondayMotivation
