“…there is collective investment in white supremacy, an articulation of what that means for white people, and a reminder of what it costs us all. The migrants on the border certainly understand that cost.” Click the link to read the full article!

New pub alert! In “The Border is their Swimming Pool,” @GNegronGonzales draws on the public swimming pool metaphor In @rvmagee’s, “The Sum of Us” to reflect on immigration policies and perspectives at the US/Mexico border. https://t.co/vAzh1M4ucq

[USFCA Department of Leadership Studies @DLSusfca]

From the article: in discussing US-based ranchers along the border, “The border is their public swimming pool. They are invested in the maintenance and militarization of the border but when you scratch the surface, the contradiction is exposed: this border does not serve them…”

[USFCA Department of Leadership Studies @DLSusfca]

From the intro: "The purpose of this issue is not to create a normative discourse about queerness and education, but to open a space for multiple (and perhaps contradictory) forms of work to co-exist."

New Pub Alert! @GNegronGonzales examines the killing of three teenage boys at the U.S.-Mexico border (see thread!) https://t.co/NoPbLVSJWw

[USFCA Department of Leadership Studies @DLSusfca]

She argues that these murders exemplify the reality that not all children are afforded the so-called universal protection of childhood as outlined in the United Nations Convention. Thank you Dr. Negrón-Gonzales for this important work!

"...Through the lens of a social justice educator, the author offers practical, humanizing steps that are intended to help secondary school educators engage with students in a way that emphasizes boundaries, respect, and reflection for students and adults alike."

[USFCA Department of Leadership Studies @DLSusfca]

Welcome back from sabbatical, Dr. Darrick Smith! Highlighting his recent 2020 article "GETTING CURSED OUT FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE: NOTES ON HANDLING VERBAL ASSAULTS WITH HUMANITY". View it here: https://t.co/NwQRLwyQVi

[USFCA Department of Leadership Studies @DLSusfca]

From the abstract: "A national dialogue on school discipline has now reemerged in the United States as many educators struggle with how to maintain a balance of cultural responsiveness and high expectations when addressing student transgressions on their campuses." (continued)

Most importantly, their LGBTQIA+ identity serves as a foundation for a deeper relationship with God through their vocation as educators.
