The Ramblings of an Anti-racist Teacher

I tweet the experience of educators of color from around the world. DM me to share your story. Our voice is part of our humanity. No more silence. (they/them)

Worried parents started a petition because there's a widespread atmosphere of fear and silence. Even though they've tried reaching out through official channels, the Board has repeatedly overlooked their worries. Please help spread the word by retweeting! https://t.co/nQhW5KDO8m

One of the main ways I support the work is by avoiding answering questions that can be easily found on Google.

People shouldn't spend their lives being taught to fit into systems only to be discarded when they discover who they truly are.

Watching Dr. Muhammad and Dr. Love Keynote made my year! My school ain't ready for what's coming this Fall. I'm loaded with knowledge and arguments on why antiracist education is JUST good teaching. 😎

When we hold on to colour-blind ideologies we center our own comfort … young children are not too young to talk about race. #earlyyears #anti-biaseducation #EJB #DEIJ https://t.co/iIjNcWbuVL

Over 600 signatures is just the beginning. The students haven’t even begun to dig deep in their demands the @iborganization take action.

I’ve signed, have you?

Let’s keep this movement going & collectively demonstrate what it means to fight for justice.

It’s sad to see words that were created out of deep meaning become watered down, weaponized, and overused yet misunderstood. Working toward equity is not to be played with. Be steadfast and clear on what that means. Take it serious or don’t take it up at all.
