A former 8th grade student and athlete texted me today as she entered her sophomore year of college and reminded my of my Why. Why I’m a teacher. Why I do what I do. Blessed beyond belief to be reminded.

Macklemore’s new single is straight 🔥. It’s an entire vibe, he crushes it every time. Check out Chant!

Favorite quote from the new novel that I’m reading, Lovely War: “It’s more common than you think. The most mortal bodies are housed by spectacular souls” (236). 💯

The same SCOTUS that said yesterday that states don’t have the ability to regulate guns today gave states the power to regulate women’s bodies.

Today, I listened to parents, siblings, and best friends of the Oxford victims speak up about the need for gun reform. Absolutely heartbreaking. I marched and talked to my students who were there. We need more than thoughts and prayers. Policy and change.

Can’t believe this has to be said: if you’re defending or downplaying the actions of Vladimir Putin, you have chosen the wrong side of history.

The price of gas is a small price to pay when it comes to 800,000 refugees forced to flee their home. Anything to halt Putan and help Ukraine. We are people first. Help your fellow human, help the refugees, help Ukraine.

In the face of injustice, you rise 🇺🇦

In a live video address, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called for the EU to “prove” that it's with Ukraine it resists Russia's invasion.

“Without you, Ukraine is going to be alone," he says. "… so do prove you are with us."

[Ali Kranz @AliKranz]

When you walk into Auschwitz, there is a sign that reads: “Those that don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it”. That applies to what’s happening at this very moment. That’s why it’s taught and that’s why people are taking a stance.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

People kept saying that Volodymyr Zelensky is in over his head but all I see is a courageous man who is willing to risk his life for his people.

[Ryan Reynolds @VancityReynolds]

In 48 hours, countless Ukrainians were forced to flee their homes to neighboring countries. They need protection. When you donate, we’ll match it up to $1,000,000, creating double the support.⬇️ https://t.co/xCFL1Lptuw
