@sobhanajm9 @KeralaTourism Beautiful photos!

This is so important. A thread by Autumn A. BlackDeer on how #DecolonizeYourSyllabus should go much, much further than the syllabus. Teachers have the power to make sure that classrooms are the sites for the ongoing process of decolonization

Some of best English language scholars on Afghanistan & diaspora that go beyond usual tropes. Trying to amplify Afghan scholars too... Google them / Google Scholar them.

This weekend I had the opportunity to join a walking tour hosted by @PPSTMX1 to visit the tree-sit, see damage done by TMX pipeline construction & speak to some dedicated community organizers. Tour runs every Sat, I highly recommend: https://t.co/td2BHinlOo

As a rule of thumb, I never do roll call. What's the point of forcing everyone to listen to me mangle ~20 names? I tell students the name I'm really good at saying (my own) and ask them to introduce themselves as they want to be called.

[Dasha @dberezhn]

"mutilating someone’s name is a tiny act of bigotry" - This is equally important in the #highered world too, where instructors/TAs have much less opportunity to interact with students and be corrected

[Cult of Pedagogy @cultofpedagogy]

If you’re in a position to say lots of student names... no one will be surprised if you mess up a couple of them. But this year, maybe you can do better.

One of the things that upset me the most while working on #EqualChance campaign was the number of ITMDs who asked to remain anonymous because they were terrified of professional backlash if they publicly spoke out. Let's be a voice for them. Retweet to support #cdnpoli #cdnhealth

@sobhanajm9 really looking forward to your talk on Monday and hearing your inspiring story! Thanks to @VIUniversity for giving us the opportunity to hear from so many amazing speakers over the past 3 weeks

My friend @_amythecat is working on this incredibly important campaign to help remove barriers to practice for internationally trained doctors! Please check it out #EqualChance

[Amy Leis @_amythecat]

While working on #EqualChance, I have had the privilege of speaking with internationally trained medical doctors whose stories have moved me to tears. They have given up years, often decades, of their lives to try to practice in Canada. 🧵
