Black father kills a man who tried to rape his daughter & media posts his solo mug shot.
White father murders his own infant children & media posts his smiling picture with family.
Make no mistake, this is how media normalizes white supremacy & extremism. We must reject it.
Thread: We need to get a few things straight, people.
Those advocating for the return of the SAT in admissions because "other things seem to favor wealthy students" seem to be missing something.
Something kind of big.
Welp. I just attended a webinar on supporting students with disabilities. There wasn’t a single mention of family inclusion. But the moment a panelist said, “How can we help students overcome their disability?” I knew this was no place for me. Do better. #whyweadvocate
Born deaf. Docs and audiologists gave me hearing aids and cochlear implants. As a "high performer," people assumed I was communicating on a high level. So my communication deficits were overlooked (hearing ≠ communication). I tell patients that tech will provide access to sound.
#MentalHealth tip: Be kind to yourself. Often we criticise ourselves and doubt ourselves in ways that we would never do to a good friend. Notice how you talk to yourself. Would you say that to someone you liked? Be a friend to yourself. #impostersyndrome@theawkwardyeti
Glad to see the "equity in online learning" articles. Let's remember, too, equity is an institutional, ideological commitment. Not a strategy/tool we pull out of the drawer and apply to online learning when we haven't invested the labor necessary to apply it to everything else.
