The events of 9/11 were a tragedy. Many lives were forever changed because of the attack, especially the lives of many Muslims and Muslim-Americans. Islamophobia is still a very significant issue and must continuously be challenged. How were you impacted by 9/11?

Educators, consider the impact on Indigenous students and the many others from around the world who have, and continue to experience colonial violence. They may choose to not be part of any “honouring” conversations

The TRC says up to 30,000 just in Canada, there are thousands of more graves yet to be unearthed. Let’s not just “get over it.” Let’s mourn, let’s acknowledge & reflect. let’s honour. The survivors are still here. Was only one generation ago when it ended.

We remember the victims & learn the lessons. We cannot be silent in thd face of hate

Early intentional acts of inclusion help you prevent future unintentional acts of exclusion.

We need to advocate to change the label of “Special Education” in the MoEd, boards, schools, classrooms & community. Our students don’t have special needs, they have human needs. They require supports 2 help them live their best lives. What are some ideas for renaming this label?

@TawnyaCSmith Congratulations Tawnya! You will be a fantastic VP!

I don’t have special needs.
I am not special needs.
I am a disabled person.
My needs are human.
