We often fulfill dual roles as experts and students although not always in formal positions

Making decisions based on practicality is a reality for undocumented folks who are pursuing higher ed

We all have different circumstances. You deserve to be in academia. Yes!

Fantastic immigration news for doctors and nurses. The Senate version of the Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act added 10 new co-sponsors just now and there are 12 Republican and 12 Democratic co-sponsors which means it is filibuster-proof. This one is ready to move!

When teachers say that leaving teaching is “the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do”— believe them, because it is.

Why? Because when a teacher quits or resigns— you may see it as someone leaving a job, but we see it as letting down our students and their families.

@readmoreyall We have allowed students to select a paper, creative medium (e.g. video, social media post series, song), teach-in, advocacy effort… We teach educators to work with and for undocumented communities — our methods have to be creative.

@caitteach Take some time to learn how to better support undocumented students and students from mixed immigration status households - the burden shouldn’t fall only on teachers to engage in PD
