A new (hopefully troll-free) account. Keen to connect with other educators around #personalizedlearning and #reading. (pls don't tag my old account! - thanks!)
As Canadian teachers it’s at the core of our duty to educate students about Truth and Reconciliation. @Drawn2Intellect articulates an accurate “Canada Day” vibe that I 100% support.
We are colonizers. How can you celebrate that and still teach kids about Indigenous People?
I get a bit 🙄 with White folx talking about “activist fatigue”. Imagine centuries of asking for things to be equitable and always hearing / seeing “nah we’d rather maintain our power”?
That’s fatigue.
It’s interesting to think about this in the context of feminism and how girls are taught that one key to the feminine code is to “always be nice”. We have to teach our girls to TEAR IT ALL DOWN and not be nice. #dismantlewsc
This notification as I wait to start the two-day workshop with @trussleadership!?! Keen to learn and grow from this weekend’s Dismantling White Supremacy Culture Virtual Workshop. Even more excited that so many folks from my new school are taking part.
@ReadingExplorer I’m so sorry that this is happening and that you are forced to share this aspect of your identity in this manner. Solidarity, love and masses of support.
@TheLittlestToy@gordperks I’m shocked at TPLs decision. She’s spent years on Twitter and other public forums seeking out trans folks and their allies. She even came for a grieving father in 2014. She’s such a dangerous human. But of course her fellow terfs are out to support.
@la_panique You are fabulous! I literally remember you sitting in my living room not even six months ago saying: I don’t think I could do one of those!!! AND LOOK AT YOU! THAT IS SO BADASS.
