After being asked about Critical Race Theory, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley delivers an answer every American should watch.
When history makes us uncomfortable we need to ask WHY and when we answer that question we need to then ask "What can I do to restore the harm that was done?" As I tell my students, "If you don't like something, find out how you can change it."
People are conflating Critical Race Theory with History. Y’all really protesting the teaching of HISTORY in schools. And just because that history makes some uncomfortable, that doesn’t make it any less true.
Amazing conversation that spoke to my experience with #TLI2021#AZTeacherLeader@azk12
All of these systems are interconnected, and the more we can see where they intersect, the more we can help our scholars identify and use their power.
"And what do you need to learn to solve that problem?" @jcasap What do you need from me to get that or get there? Teachers can be the springboard for our scholars to get where they want to be and do what they want to do. #TLI2021#AZTeacherLeader
We need to be asking our students, "What problem do you want to solve?" "How do you want to solve that problem? How do you want to take your gifts, talents, and experiences to solve that problem?" Help students find their power and USE IT. @jcasap#TLI2021#AZTeacherLeader
