Read the new brief on democratic engagement in schools w/ @julieamarsh @EuphaJeanneD! We found racial, socioeconomic, and political divisions driving new patterns of involvement during the pandemic.

How do CA voters feel about local school governance in the wake of 2020’s upheaval? New policy brief uses data from the 2021 PACE/@USCRossier poll to assess voters’ attitudes towards & engagement w/ school boards. https://t.co/0Mgjej7PEi

Submitting my first research grant as a PhD student is so satisfying. Now time to use org theory to figure out how schools can better prepare for a future with climate change, & how districts from rural CA all the way to San Antonio TX can learn from 2020 to prepare for 2050+

[Jacob Alonso @_JacobAlonso_]

Yes.

Good morning! If you only look at one map today, make it this one. This is what red/blue states really look like. Land doesn't vote. People do. #ElectionResults2020 https://t.co/dfpl4N2MLq

Instead of talking about changing White people’s hearts and minds, can we talk about changing the electoral system that gives White voters a disproportionate amount of power (as it was designed to do)?

We have lost a giant in the history of our nation with the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

It is heartbreaking that in her final moments she was, as are many others, preoccupied with what would happen after her passing.

I want to make one thing clear: we can, and must, fight.

A 17 year old white supremacist domestic terrorist drove across state lines, armed with an AR 15.

He shot and killed 2 people who had assembled to affirm the value, dignity, and worth of Black lives.

Fix your damn headlines.

@DrJonathanRosa And its so striking to hear about schools w/therapy animals while I would wait with my students outside my classroom while a K-9 unit searched their backpacks & an officer conducted pat downs. The resources are there to serve kids, but they're used to traumatize instead of heal
