✊🏽 ✊🏾✊🏼STRIKE ANNOUNCEMENT: After a weekend of marathon bargaining, it is clear that OUSD still isn’t ready to get serious about reaching an agreement that will keep educators in Oakland and meet the needs of our students with increased mental health supports… (1/3)
I didn't know who Andrew Tate was but my 12yo son did.
Parents, they're coming for your boys. They market misogyny and racism to cishet white boys, in a package that seems appealing. Talk to your kids, have hard conversations. It's important.
Just want to take a moment to give @marciaxthree and @greta_callahan their flowers. They beautifully called out right wing media recent efforts to drum up imaginary hype about lay off protections for educators of color. I’m so grateful for @MFT59 and these two amazing leaders.
More police in schools is not the answer. It harms students as shown in this 2021 article. Children and educators should not be locked in patrolled institutions while assault weapons are allowed on the street by politicians who refuse to act. https://t.co/vKWQWbdSeh
Minneapolis Public School students are amazing and I am beyond proud to be one of their teachers. Our students are tearing the school board a new one. Our district better LISTEN! @MPS_News
I have never seen anything like this in my 31 years in criminal court. This is a person accused of murdering two people leaning over the judge’s shoulder, with no security in sight. What judges do and say in court matters to juries.
@GovStitt Oklahoma cannot execute an innocent man. Please save Julius Jones’ life and take the recommendation of your Pardon and Parole Board and commute his sentence to life with the possibility of parole. #JusticeforJulius
As lawmakers across the country continue to restrict the rights of trans people—particularly trans students—educators can take this moment to start a conversation about transgender identity, justice and ways to take action. https://t.co/yX8TRfPGwu
BREAKING—CDC reverses course—CDC is expected to recommend on Tuesday that people vaccinated for the coronavirus resume wearing masks indoors. The change follows reports of rising breakthrough infections with the #Deltavariant. ➡️ ABOUT DAMN TIME! #COVID19 https://t.co/VQeWOVviP3
”In second and third grade, he had 19 interactions with police or armed security officers.” Students like Kal-El want supports to help them de-escalate during mental health crises. It's clear that these traumatic interactions aren't the answer.

Humbled and excited to part of this amazing event. Please share widely with folks you know that are committed to engaging the conversation about community responsive education.
In response to the recent legislative action in my state of Texas: I’m not pro-murdering babies.
I'm pro-Juanita who found out at her 20 week anatomy scan that the infant she had been so excited to bring into this world had developed without life sustaining organs.
Traumatic connections: Caron Nazario’s wife Raquel was also a cousin to Eric Garner, who died on a Staten Island sidewalk in 2014 after an officer wrapped him in a chokehold. https://t.co/37toIv0uk5
Reminder: you are extra tired and deeply exhausted because you are living thru a pandemic, race war and civil war and capitalism is an engine and white supremacy is demonic.
This is exhausting.
