This is an important read about the economic impacts the Residential School system had (and still has) on Indigenous people – on those who were forced to attend, as well as on the generations that followed. This needs to be talked about more. 1/2

Love Nish Nation, but remember neither six nations nor new credit... S. Ontario treaty Partners are NOT repped by this Organization. Always more to learn.

“Recent edits to the curriculum undermine our collective efforts to make mathematics learning responsive to students’ lived experiences, support critical thinking, & eliminate oppressive practices that prohibit the effective implementation of a destreamed mathematics curriculum.”

[Anjali Joshi @Anjali_Joshi_]

Growing up, my parents would name-drop accomplished Indian mathematicians and scientists with so much pride. I rolled my eyes every time. I recall thinking to myself that if these scientists were in fact so accomplished, I would have heard about them in school. [1/8]

We’ve seen this circulating on social media. To @LincolnAlexPS students, it’s okay if you don’t bring these on the first day of school. We understand. We will get there together and in time.

How I interpret racial disparity perpetuates racial disparities. We must dig deeper into ourselves as educators with humility and discomfort. @pgorski @ddsbequity #igniteunlearning
