[Kristina Lidstone @krislidstone]

Amazing, I'm itching to work on this myself!

@becksmecks Hello! Really enjoying the latest episode of You Can Sit With Us.

Can you share the video you mentioned about a triangle of conspiracy theories that explains which one people believe at each level?

It would help add to my lessons on understanding media!

Thanks!

Please do not become desensitized to phrases like white power and white supremacy. Remember that it's the deadly, evil belief that white people are superior and should dominate other races. Slavery. Nazism. Colonialism. Apartheid. Our blood should curdle every time we hear it.

This narrative that black people who want an accurate reflection of history are "angry and resentful" leaves us with one logical takeaway:

White people don't want to know history because they can't handle the truth.

One of the most striking lessons of this pandemic has been how vitally important clear and effective science communication is to the functioning of a society and the lives of its people.

When people say "science isn't political" but funding comes from political institutions, governments are in charge of climate change regulation and governing bodies use science to decide what we literally eat and drink?

[Kristina Lidstone @krislidstone]

Incredible thread explaining the shifts needed to really fight oppression.

A lil piece of advice for the TL:

Don't mistake a person's identity for their political ideology.

[Kristina Lidstone @krislidstone]

Privilege is invisible unless I constantly remind myself or get reminded. An important reminder and call-out needed right now.

thread:
i’ve seen many white allies posting updates about books they’re reading, professional development they’re attending, and conversations they’re having this summer.

do that, but also recognize the immense privilege you hold in being able to listen and learn right now. 1/5

while I see discussions of how the origins of the police is in slave catching & settler militia, I am not sure if people are understanding that we are dealing with an over 400 year old problem.

In 2014, after being named Teacher of the Year, my supervisor told me if I said I was gay in public I would be "shot in the head."

I was told I would be fired if I did not bring her all of my private mail from home to read. (more)
