We will soon return to campus for in-person learning in this beautiful campus; and what a gift that is. To see people in our community again, beyond our screens.

Equity in access. Period. #imlistening

[Alfie Kohn @alfiekohn]

I understand the equity-based case for making online instruction asynchronous, but this greatly complicates collaboration, exploration, and student-centered learning, locking in a model of teaching that's only about "delivering content" - a chilling phrase if ever there was one.

“Many "celebrating diversity" initiatives are crafted to help white students learn about diversity—not racism, but diversity—in ways that will be most comfortable for them.” This and other racial equity detours

How am I complicit? How can I grapple with my own racist behaviors and beliefs? How can I further educate myself on this global phenomenon? How can I do better? https://t.co/QYY66lQH88

Microaggressions are the everyday slights, indignities, put-downs and insults that members of marginalized groups experience in their day-to-day interactions with individuals who are often unaware that they have engaged in an offensive or demeaning way. https://t.co/8yKtQFrctE

[Julie Olson @JulieOlson1]

So much pain in our world right now. I read posts from loved ones from all walks of marginalized lives. I try to learn and confront my own bias about people. I want the world fair and equal for all. Right now, #imlistening

Parents, students, you are okay. All will be well when we are done with this. Perhaps, we will be even better for it. Stop worrying. Your teachers will catch everyone up when we come back to school. Or maybe, we think of this differently all together...
