We found that the majority of interactions (63%) had a positive emotional tone, and most (54%) were focused on instructional support. Teachers with 3+ years of experience had more positive interactions & higher incidence of instructional support #InclusiveEducation #Kenya 3/3

**New article** Very excited to share that my article (with
@YSitabkhan & Tabitha N. Kilonzo) "Classroom environment for children with disabilities in Kenyan preschools" has just been published in the International Journal of Inclusive Education https://t.co/cYykitYrui 1/3

We looked at interactions between children w/ #disabilities & their teachers & peers in 5 preschool classrooms in Kenya, classifying them by both type of interaction (instruction support, behavior management, general classroom) & whether they were positive or negative in tone 2/3

Listen. The amount of mind Olympics Kamala has to do to not come across as angry, emotional, combative but also be firm, warm, honest, direct ...all while this mf’er is straight up lying and gaslighting her.

Whew. The strength and the talent of Black women.

Trump has a very obvious and deep-seeded visceral contempt for and fear of any outward sign of illness, age, or disability.

Just a reminder: Amy Coney Barrett would never have become an appellate judge if GOP Senate had confirmed President Obama's nominee Myra Selby, a Black woman, to Indiana seat on 7th Circuit in 2016. But GOP blocked Selby, kept seat open & Trump filled it w/Barrett. #CourtPacking

Amy Coney Barret has been on bench for only three years. She’s already had colleagues accuse her of not following Brown v. Board AND Griggs v. Duke Power which held policies adversely impacting people of color constitute discrimination. Breathtaking record for a SCOTUS nominee.

I'm a parent, author, and a former college interviewer. Please hear me - in this time of stress people want to "flood" their kids with books about racism. Please provide 20 joyful books for every one book on racism. They also need to know POC kids are like every other kid.

Great but heartbreaking article about the problem solving that led to fortified flour being more widely used in Tanzania, and the roadblocks that #COVID-19 is presenting. https://t.co/ZBVusIDisU

So proud of my mom (@geralyng), who co-wrote this piece on #COVID and the risk it poses to #seniorhousing @Health_Affairs @LeadingAge @LTSSCenter

[Health Affairs @Health_Affairs]

Publicly subsidized #seniorhousing communities are hotspots for #COVID19 spread, warn @DrRobynStone, Alisha Sanders, + Geralyn Magan of @LeadingAge @LTSSCenter. Policymakers need a multipronged approach to mitigate #outbreaks. https://t.co/cHgBTrLkfc

Great question and really interesting perspectives in the responses - worth reading #DisabilityTwitter

Can you help me out #DisabilityTwitter? If you're a person with a disability who prefers #PersonFirstLanguage, why? Feel free to DM me.

Marca had a remarkable way of bringing out the best within us. For me, she was a trusted voice and a persistent, buoyant spirit—an example that progress can be slow, but it’s always possible. We’ll miss her, but we’re far better off because of her fight. https://t.co/gVkQvENtIs
