Down here, we speaking every time we see you. If we see you 5 times in one day, we speaking 5 times, each time like we didn’t just speak to you. 😂

Can’t help but to think that Southern Miss won the conference championship against a team that is now 14th in the nation. Oh well it’s still #SMTTT

If you want to get involved in this work or just want a history lesson on Jackson or #Mississippi, you must connect with this great man. It is truly an honor to benefit from his wisdom and to call him a colleague. In his words “Stay strong and keep the faith.”

It was great to see my dear brother in education! A true example of iron sharpen iron. 💪 #BlackMaleEducators

While in Jackson, Mississippi, it was good connecting with @gs2project -mover and shaker. Years ago, Stewart joined the community of Black male educators that met regularly here on Twitter (X) to build community. The impact still lives on…salute.

@Krypt0Nupe That’s the good stuff brother!

Coordination is where the challenge is. You have all these organizations doing this great work but the efforts are not coordinated in a way that can create real systemic impact.

I see this as an opportunity to really build a Mississippi that we want to see. Let’s work. 💪

So many of us, who do this work in Mississippi, have read this book. I read it. Senator @scott_colom has read it, and so many others. In #Mississippi, we really believe that our politics is local.

I’m going to list some orgs that put in that work because they deserve their flowers. This is NOT an exhaustive list. So if you are from The Sip and you want to add to the list please do. Here we go….

Focus groups, town halls, surveys, and convenings are needed. But so many organizations get stuck there. The community can’t wait on these resources.

What do you do after the report has been published?

[George Stewart, CNP @gs2project]

Typically, those closest to issues are the farthest away from the decision making.

I don’t know which one is more stressful. Election officials being monitored during a tight Senate race or teachers being monitored by district and state people during state testing?

“Senator Sanders is positioned to become chair of the Senate Education Committee.” It would be great to see if he can get any movement on the “Pay Teachers Act” that he introduced.

SNAP and Medicaid are education issues. And a transition in power will have a significant impact on these issues.
