Summing up the 2024 BMEsTalk Catalyst in one word: JOY
One of our intentions was to:
Equip Black men with the tools & resources to increase joy, improve the quality of their professional experiences, and thrive within the field of education.
We have space for you! ✅ Bio!
🛠️ 10 days remaining until the start of the Catalyst - our premier leadership retreat!
Over 30 Black men from 8 different states will attend.
We offer interactive workshops that equip Black men with new strategies and skills to make a lasting impact.
@WmStubbs Dopeness!
Let us know how we can support. We have developed several curriculums for teachers and teacher-leaders: Emotional Wellness Curriculum for Educator, Collective Intelligence in the Workplace, and Interpersonal Conflict Mitigation.
How would education be changed if Black male educators felt seen, valued and supported?

Participants:
"We as Black Men, although we are in different spaces, we all are on a similar path and we are here to support one another."
"I didn't feel like I "had" to participate, but I WANTED to participate."
"My career in education spans more than two decades. I was first introduced to teaching by my mother, Joy Harrison, a lifelong educator with Seattle Public Schools. Growing up in Seattle, I never thought I would become a teacher."
