@JasonReynolds83@DrIbram I'm touched by the outpouring of support for my wife! It's beautiful to see so many people speak up for what's right and simply be empathetic, caring humans. Thank you all!!!! And thank you Jason Reynolds for your work and support!!! @JasonReynolds83
After dedicating her career to her students, my wife had to resign tonight after relentless harassment, defamation, and blatant racism due to teaching the board approved book Stamped by J. Reynolds. This book needs to be read. She is broken-hearted @JasonReynolds83@DrIbram#BLM
She is a brilliant educator with administrative experience in South Jersey. I've been inspired watching her fight through this with incredible grace, but it's been awful seeing her spirit broken. I am deeply thankful you took the time to reply and for the remarkable work you do!
@integralcath@JasonReynolds83@KGrynch Yet it is absolutely believable. To do the work, we have to risk our careers. We never know when someone will flex their privilege, but an awful lot of us know that when we're challenged, there will be no support from those who could intervene.
Thank you so incredibly much! I tweeted without my wife's knowledge, but she was moved to tears when I shared your reply with her. My wife wants nothing more than to continue this work in an authentically supportive environment.
