representation absolutely matters.
just 2% of the US teaching cadre is comprised of AAPI individuals.
but in 2022, CT, OR, HI, WI, GU, NMI, VI (& AS) recognized #AAPIteachers in #ntoy22.
we are here. you see us. be ready to hear us.
The weight and immensity of this kuleana feels appropriately heavy and is a privilege to bear.
Mahalo to my ‘ohana (and ‘OHANA BUBBLE), community, and @HIDOE808 for the opportunity to represent Hawai‘i and #AAPI teachers and students across the nation. #PublicSchoolProud#ntoy22
1) I am deliberately making this post public to expose the level of silencing and intimidation that can emerge from a social media posting @LinfieldUniv. I have received this email today at 6:14 pm from the “Director of HR.”

Here is the sum total of @LinfieldUniv’s explanation to @theFIREorg for terminating @pollackpelzner, a tenured professor, without process.
This is all they have to say for themselves.

Here’s the recap: I reported allegations of sexual misconduct against four members of the @LinfieldUniv Board. The Board retaliated against me. I asked them to stop retaliating. They fired me. And now they’re trying to silence anyone who supports me. https://t.co/PZAOQarwVY

<Let me point out layers of issues in this lack of data driven report by a local chapter of Salem-Keizer NAACP says Linfield president treated unfairly due to race. I know because only 6 of us - all tenured faculty were contacted by @SalemNAACP https://t.co/AMalRqXbUl
