In a new letter, AERA and other education research leaders call on Congress to protect the nation’s education data, research infrastructure, and knowledge base, by safeguarding the IES and broader Education Department staff, leadership, and mission. https://t.co/ZyE5ZOrRWz

An Idaho teacher is refusing to back down after school district officials ordered her to remove classroom signs like, “Everyone is welcome here.”

“There are only two opinions on this sign: Everyone is welcome here, or not everyone is welcome here,” said the sixth-grade history teacher.

She is teaching America a lesson: when a nation abandons inclusion, it invites exclusion.

#AACTE, MACTE, and @NCTResidencies have filed a lawsuit to challenge the termination of 100+ educator preparation grants that were illegally ended by the U.S. Department of Education last month. Read the press release on the AACTE website. https://t.co/pN5VsCNCIa

The first step that repressive movements take is to tell people what they can or cannot read or can or cannot learn. The suppression of literacy has been a staple of U.S. history, going back to the days when enslaved people were prohibited from learning how to read and write.

[Howard University @HowardU]

Please join us in celebrating! Earlier today, the American Council on Education officially conferred Howard with the prestigious Research One (R1) Carnegie Classification, solidifying its place as a powerhouse of innovation and discovery.

This milestone is especially groundbreaking as Howard University is the only HBCU with the R1 designation—known as the highest research activity classification among U.S. colleges and universities.

“As a leader in the evolution of next generation HBCUs, we are dedicated to ensuring that the benefits of discovery and progress reach all communities, including those historically overlooked and underrepresented,” said President Ben Vinson III, Ph.D.

This is more than a simple accomplishment—Howard is redefining research and reimagining innovation. Join us in celebrating this extraordinary moment in Howard’s history as we continue to influence the future of research, innovation, and impact. The Mecca continues to lead the way!

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

From our earliest days, Black history has always been American history – and Black folks have profoundly shaped our American culture through music, art, literature, sports, and beyond. One month a year is not sufficient to celebrate the power of the movements and the people who have fought for the rights we enjoy today. That’s something that we have to do each and every day, as we strive to live up to their example and make sure our children and grandchildren remember their stories.

[Kimberlé Crenshaw @sandylocks]

We know now that what they're coming after is not one form of thinking. It's not Black history, it's not intersectionality, it's not critical race theory. They're coming after the entire infrastructure that has been created from the civil rights movement.

[Meghan L Green, EdD @DrMeghanGreen]

I’m so excited to extend this invitation to participate in a month long series of poetry writing workshops for Black women early childhood educators during February 2025.

He is "dangerously unqualified" to be Attorney General.

Donald Trump announces his 10-point plan to rebuild America's school system:

Among his promises is teach patriotism, bring back 'school prayer, and fire teachers who disagree.

This is how our freedom ends.
