Social distancing is not about being scared or a germaphobe or a wimp or panicky. It is about NOT GETTING VULNERABLE PEOPLE KILLED. You are not tough or brave or savvy or cool by ignoring best practices. You are just making this thing worse.

As students, educators, and families face school disruptions across the nation because COVID19, Election Day may seem too far away to consider. But the need for solid, informed, compassionate leadership has never been more clear.

Tonight in class, students shared that I was their first Native woman professor/teacher ever! That hit me hard, I am still feeling and processing through what that means for them, me, and us. Probably something I will face for years to come.

You don’t need to speak the language in order to support it 💙 #duallanguage

Some of the strongest advocates for #duallanguage do not speak the partner language, but they are all in with biliteracy instruction! Meet Mary Jo Powell, #principal at Brown Station ES in @MCPS - a model of life-long learning! #PrincipalsWhoTeach #LeadsrsWhoTeach @BrownStationES

Wow! Great way to look at it.

"When I was teaching school, a man came to a parents’ meeting and complained about the extraordinary amount of testing we were doing.. 'You’re like a gardener who constantly pulls his plants up by the roots to see if they’re growing.' That is just what we were doing.."

So far in 2019, the number of fires burning across the Amazon is higher than at any point since 2010, which was a particularly bad year of drought https://t.co/KbpIqh0FPR

@caricoop @support_a_teach Diverse books that are about representation and inclusion make my heart skip a beat! Thank you for retweeting our lists and paying it forward. My students need to see books as mirrors. https://t.co/623Xjb6LXd
