@BlizzardCS - Current status after sitting in the queue for 60 minutes. It's been the same since pre-patch. When will we see a solution and why after 10+ years is this still an issue?

[Jenn Reidy @ReidyReads]

@EP_Appa I'm feeling this so deeply right now.

[Jenn Reidy @ReidyReads]

I've been thinking about traditions for the past two months and how we keep, create, or reclaim them. Here's one I can get behind in so many ways. Thanks @Jess5th ! Like so many things you put into the world: appreciated and inspired!

@mochamomma I really liked distance teaching last year. Still like in-person teaching, but would feel more comfortable as distance this year (until all littles could be vaccinated/schools could require vax like so many other immunizations).

Black Boy Joy is indeed a celebration.

”In a world where Black boys’ stories are often tragedies, statistics, and stereotypes, this work surely reclaims ownership over the boldness, creativity, and wholeness they possess.” — Booklist, starred review 1/2 https://t.co/FONDvO3sg7

between the expectation of “returning to normal” during a raging pandemic and attacks on our pedagogy, we already know this year will be an uphill battle.

so we’re providing a space for teachers to help folks dream, plan, and connect this week.

Honestly didn't know bath day was a thing. Struggle to get kids in the tub at all because "it interrupts play" now approaching it as take care of our bodies and asking kids what we can do to make it fun and not a chore (music, toys, chat, not rush or make it quick etc.)

[swm @sheathescholar]

white allies…..it’s time to disrupt and dismantle “bath days” (unless every day is already bath day).

[Sunisa lee @sunisalee_]

history. 😭💙

[swm @sheathescholar]

I hope all the white allies who are championing Simone Biles are also prepared to show up for the overworked, underappreciated, and underpaid Black women at their own jobs.

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

I want to say more about this even if perhaps I shouldn’t. Black Americans are amongst the most astute political and social observers of American power because our survival has and still depends on it.
