Change is uncomfortable and hard as hell. When leaders expect others to change without participating + holding themselves accountable - it’s almost impossible. When leaders show up and model the vulnerability required for transformation change - it’s often unstoppable.
Happy New Year Teachers! To kick off 2021, I'm giving away two signed CLASS SETS of an I Survived Book of your choice, plus a Zoom with your class. Follow me and RT if you want to enter. I'll notify winners this Thursday, 1/7.

Thank you also to those who are taking the first steps to getting our populations vaccinated. We need this to stop the destruction. Ignore the nonsense: get vaccinated when it's your turn.
I appreciate and am so thankful for everyone working hard to identify, contain, and stop the spread of this disease. Thanks to the workers for testing me, the hospital staff who care for the sick, the citizens who do their jobs as safely as they can not for self but for others.
@LouisatheLast ISO: actual, serious ways that we can all plan and support one another. No matter which way the election goes, we need a pathway to civility and holding space for each other's feelings that will come up. I work with kids. They will be watching the adults for this.
@MariaMotunrayo @AnnabelCrescib1 @KaylaAncrum@AgentThao Also brings to mind Nnedi Okorafor and the concept of her term "AfricanFuturism"... books like her Binti and Akata Witch that kids of all colors just DEVOUR
@TLT16 Also -- WAY more prevalent now for an ebook to have a limited term, so you would have to renew or lose the ebooks after a year or two regardless of how many circulations it gets. Which would be fine (usage patterns change over time) except that the prices are same or higher.
