The district and Seattle Education Association (SEA) have come to a tentative agreement! Thank you to the hard-working joint bargaining team. Additional details will be provided soon on the district bargaining site: https://t.co/YOG21mOCor

This is a proficient level of performance for student-student interactions in the #danielsonframework. The lack of cultural awareness & attention to racial equity in the tool used by so many district to evaluate teachers is contributing to perpetuating #WhiteSupremacy in schools.

"In Seattle, we decided to stop waiting for an invitation. The NAACP Youth Coalition (N-YC), a coalition of antiracist youth representing 12 high schools and universities in the Seattle area, formed to put a stop to the above realities."

Attending the #ESInstitute19 these past two weeks was inspiring, challenging, and transforming. Looking forward to continuing in this work!

This might be the only picture I post from the last day of #ESInstitute19. This is from a teacher who has attended all two weeks. A quote from inside: "I'm walking away a changed person." This is the work. #SPSConnects #EthnicStudies

“The responsibility for eliminating institutional racism lies with those of us who control the institutions. That is white people.”

On teachers of color being tokenized and spread too thin in their buildings:

“Our white allies need to step up. You need to help your teachers of color. Don’t wait for us to ask for help, come to us and ask how you can help.” -@smiley_shraddha

Post 1 of 2: Teachers identify barriers/concerns for teaching ethnic studies. School leaders - you listening? #SPSConnects #EthnicStudies #ESInstitute19

[Ms. Henderson @MsHenderson13]

@SeattleSupt Thank you for your commitment to this most important work. As an antiracist classroom teacher, it affirms my work and encourages me to continue. I ask that you not only invite, but demand, that the building admins join you on the road to becoming an antiracist institution.

Donald Trump condemning "racism, bigotry and white supremacy" is as painfully hypocritical as a slaveholder saying this is the land of the free.

What if the government weren’t the ones who got to define individuals’ legal race? #ESinstitute19 #ethnicstudies #SPSconnects #latinxstudies
