"Housing inequality can't be separated from economic inequality," …economic inequality can't be separated from health care [and education] outcomes. All these things are interrelated." - @jelani9
Great to be part of this project uncovering the depths of present day inequality.
We're pleased to announce big news for team Schott! Join us in congratulating @TheDialloBrooks on his new position as Senior Equity Fellow and welcoming @JTLwhite as she joins us as our new Senior Vice President of Programs and Advocacy! https://t.co/sawRQZmPBO
Dr. James Loewen said, “The antidote to feel-good history is not feel-bad history but honest and inclusive history.” Rest well to a scholar whose book, Lies my Teacher Told Me, among others, set my academic journey in politics of RacexEd
Loewen taught at Tougaloo College in Mississippi at the height of the Black Freedom Struggle, and remained committed to that institution and its mission, including developing a justice-oriented website housed by the university.

Starvation wages forced me to live in my car with my two babies.
Starvation wages left me making decisions between keeping the lights on and food on the table.
Stop blaming unemployment benefits for worker shortages and start paying people a livable wage.
#WinWithBlackWomen congratulates one of our very own, Tishaura Jones (@tishaura ), on becoming the first Black woman to be elected as mayor of the great city of Saint Louis! Black women make history on a daily!
So STAMPED is #2 most banned book, and ALL AMERICAN BOYS is #3. I hate this. Let the babies have books. If you disagree with something I’ve said, why not engage in discourse instead of discouragement?
This young scholar signed off from her Zoom class. She likely has plans to sign off from detention too. 🤷🏾♀️ There are more innovative (and effective) ways to retain students’ attention and hold them accountable in #virtualschool
The repeated behavior the teacher warned my 9yo and emailed me previously about is my child's inability to focus consistently in online class and complete the assignments. She frequently gets distracted, plays computer games, ignores the teacher, or just signs off Zoom.
My child got sent to Zoom detention for not paying attention in Zoom 4th grade. Email said here’s the link to access the room to serve detention.
I swear I’m trying so hard to take this life seriously.
Co-founding/leading the Doc Research Collective for the Study of Race & Ethnicity @TeachersCollege with @JTLwhite has been amazing!
We had our 1st faculty speaker last week and I am so thankful for all the wisdom and encouragement @RuizSealey shared with our inaugural cohort!
