Sitting with elders creating a land-based curriculum from an indigenous perspective. It is fascinating and humbling to sit with the knowledge keepers and story tellers. This week, I am a student.
@LeaneRachell What?? You mean you didnโt just wake up one day and decide to be gay in a homophobic community because you thought it would be fun? ๐๐
I just missed half of my sonโs hockey game to drive 20 km to the next town over to buy $85 worth of books (with my own money) for my classroom library because I know my students will love them. I am not a villain, @AdrianaLaGrange#IAmTheATA#IStandWithABTeachers#abed#ableg
Green Party Leader @AnnamiePaul "I dont believe Mr Trudeau is a real feminist. A feminist doesn't continue to push strong women out of his party when they are just seeking to serve. I will say their names. Thank you @Puglaas Thank you @janephilpott Thank you @iamcelinacc" #Elxn44
Morning Poem
What if curiosity
is the gateway drug
to beauty?
What if doubt is not a dead end
but a dark, brambly path
deeper into our faith?
What if we donโt have
to be afraid?
What if the slippery slope
leads right into the open arms
of God?

The stress survivors experience when they see their perpetrator's name can be immense. I want survivors to be able to come to church or enter a book store with a sense of safety & wellbeing. Church & ministry should be a haven for the abused not of a vehicle for abuse (3/3).
Removing @RaviZacharias' books isn't cancel culture. It's about making sure that the bruised reeds and smouldering wicks are neither broken nor snuffed out. (2/3)
I want churches, book stores & my home to be places where survivors of sexual abuse don't need to worry whether or not they'll see the name of their predator held up as an authority on origin, meaning, morality & destiny. I encourage everyone to remove @RaviZacharias' books (1/3)
