A7 We all can serve to be a little less defensive and decide if we’re on the same team. The strategies from our selected camps will fall by the wayside and we can build a new path forward together for stronger communities and schools #DoneWithUsChat #UNCFK12

A7: Ultimately, larger institutions are going to need to practice being facilitative of grassroots leadership versus coming w all of the answers. There are movements happening all around us led by students and community that don’t fit the reform narrative #DoneWithUsChat #UNCFK12

A6 For my doctoral research I interviewed 20 national leaders in education. They all said, regardless of race, reforms were done to community and not with them. Beyond principals, there needs to be a come to Jesus in that space about intentions #DoneWithUsChat #UNCFK12

A6: We must also give our students leadership that looks like them. In a 2016 @usedgov report, in 2011-2012 only 10% of public school principles were black and only 17.3% of teachers were people of color #DoneWithUsChat #UNCFK12

A6 This really requires a mindset shift on what integration means. Sometimes there are approved pathways for building a pipeline that community leaders don’t come through and they get overlooked for opportunities to lead and practice self-determination #DoneWithUsChat #UNCFK12

@UNCF A4: In DC, @cmdgrosso did a great job hosting student led town halls across the city this year. We can start by going to them and asking them what they think about issues and what issues they want to see addressed. #DoneWithUsChat

A6: Many leaders are located in our neighborhood churches, academic sororities and fraternities, organizations such as your local National Urban League, 100 Black Men, YMCA and YWCA, Mocha Moms, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts etc #UNCFK12 #DoneWithUsChat

Q5: The disconnect is often that teachers and leaders- and their children -aren't being directly affected by the decisions being made. Its easy not to understand the discontent when its not your child being affected.... #DoneWithUsChat

A5: Building partnerships between communities and schools will help create a two-way street of information sharing. Establishing relationships can help offer collaborative opportunities for students and staff #UNCFK12 #DoneWithUsChat

A2: Also, school leaders shouldn’t just engage parents and communities after the decisions are made. Parents can be *great* decision makers. We’ve seen it with the Ward 8 POST - parents selected the operator. Who knew? Parents did. #DoneWithUsChat https://t.co/VdsvGg7283

Q5: We know there are times when underserved communities are upset about the state of education in their community, yet school leaders don’t understand this discontent due to various interventions put forth. How can we bridge this gap? #DoneWithUsChat #UNCFK12
