Woke Teachers

As educators we have to examine, unpack, and mitigate our own biases & dismantle the policies and structures that hold inequity in place.

@BrianKarem In elementary school when we learned about free speech, we learned there are limits. Every example was “you can’t yell fire in a crowded movie theater to incite panic”. Well the new example should be “you can’t tell an angry mob to go fight for you to incite an insurrection”.

Hmm. What do you call a billionaire who registered a $40 million, 164-foot yacht in the Cayman Islands to avoid $2.4 million in U.S. taxes, while undermining public schools? The worst Education Secretary in the history of America. Bye-bye, Betsy DeVos. You won't be missed.
