George Floyd and I were both arrested for allegedly spending a counterfeit $20 bill. For George Floyd, a man my age, with two kids, it was a death sentence. For me, it is a story I sometimes tell at parties. That, my friends, is White privilege.
If you’re unbothered or mildly bothered by the 1st knee, but outraged by the 2nd, then, in my father’s words, you’re “more devoted to order than to justice.” And more passionate about an anthem that supposedly symbolizes freedom than you are about a Black man’s freedom to live.
🔈Educators: Please help my sister who’s in the process of completing her master’s in Ed. She’d be extremely grateful if you’d take ~10 min to participate and/or share. Survey is open until end of day 6/1 Thanks!❤️#nctevillage#teachershelpingteachers

A much delayed post, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t shoutout my 8th graders and some of the poetry they wrote during the month of April. Their words, their creativity, their drive during these difficult times never cease to amaze ❤️
Below are a few of their Ekphrasis poems📝(1/2)
Ss wrote responses to classic poems. Such a reminder that student voices are powerful and they need to be given opportunities to tell their stories and speak their truth.✏️🗣
Sometimes these kids give me all the feels😭😱☺️👏❤️
