HAVE A DEBUT, KID.

[Arizona Diamondbacks @Dbacks]

Good morning. Who’s excited for baseball? 🙋

@SheOwnsARainbow @JasonMcNeely @EmilyAlfonse I don’t have anything else to say on this. I tried to explain where I was coming from. That I feel for the author. But I feel for the teacher. I don’t think that those two things have to be mutually exclusive. But I hear you. And appreciate you calling me out specifically.

[Nicole Dee @nicoledee1]

@SheOwnsARainbow @JasonMcNeely @EmilyAlfonse I NEVER said she should be quiet. In fact. I said the exact opposite. Twitter isn’t going to solve these problems. It’s nuanced and 140 characters isn’t enough. I tried to give my thoughts, since you called me out specifically.

@wilywoman @JackieWoodson I’m not saying jackie can’t feel frustration. I am saying that she posted a clap back to all her followers. Which is embarrassing.and I don’t think it will endear the teacher to change/self reflection.

[Nicole Dee @nicoledee1]

@SheOwnsARainbow @JasonMcNeely @EmilyAlfonse But how do we get people to self reflect without also making them feel stupid and embarrassed, esp In front of tens of thousands of people?

[Nicole Dee @nicoledee1]

@SheOwnsARainbow @JasonMcNeely @EmilyAlfonse Someone else said-she probably got 1000s of these.Fair.And fair she would be frustrated/annoyed feeling like this is the only time she and other black authors/professionals/etc get recognized.I don’t disagree.have a response and copy and paste it. Explain the feelings.Share that

[Nicole Dee @nicoledee1]

@SheOwnsARainbow @JasonMcNeely @EmilyAlfonse But this is a clap back. And shared publicly.let’s assume she doesn’t nothing all year long to promote/talk/teach about people of color. Would this response lead her to self-reflection? I doubt it. You may say-that’s not Jackie’s responsibility. Fine.

@KTaylor_SciNerd @MeehanEDU It’s hard for ME to keep up with changes. 😂 Now I have to recreate lessons with this new tech or that new thing. And honestly. I’m just a tired teacher at this point. There’s not enough time for planning “authentic” assesments let alone be able to give critical feedback.

@JonahDispatch We luff you Pippa. ❤️

@JayWamsted I think the problem w the statement is that “throwing money at public schools” doesn’t give any indication as to how that money will be spent. Personally - I just think that it will get spent in the wrong places. Public education hasn’t given me a reason to think otherwise.

@MonicaRoach15 @jmattmiller I was looking forward to finding a way to work it into the curriculum. It was banned before I really had a chance.

[Nicole Dee @nicoledee1]

@JonahDispatch My god. This really threw me for a loop. I can’t tell you how many times I looked from the word “Thursday” to the posted “1 hr” ago.

Today was one of those days where you cry in the car before school AND after school. #teachertwitter #TiredAF
