@Delta three cancelled flights from Phoenix in as many days and no alternative flights, no phone service, and your agent quit the chat. What gives?

TW: homophobia, suicide. It’s important (esp during pride month) to note the tragedy of his death; he died at the age of only 41. He was arrested and convicted for being gay, was chemically castrated, barred from further work, and died via suicide two years later.

It’s impossible to understand the pressure Simone Biles—the greatest gymnast in the history of the sport—and Naomi Osaka are feeling, but we’re lucky to live in a time where young Black trailblazers are publicly prioritizing their mental health above all else. That’s power.

The same reason why the police routinely kill Black people is the same reason why the police are routinely unprepared for White domestic terrorists.

Feeling this heavy rn. Reflecting on how to honor their academic efforts without punishing them for simply surviving

[swm @sheathescholar]

when I look back at this moment in education, I’m gonna remember we decided to assess and grade students as they tried to survive the trauma of a pandemic.

What if we told you that every city and state has organizers and leaders like Stacey Abrams, you just haven’t been listening to them?

I want Joe Biden, need Joe Biden or whatever TI said 😩

[Arne Duncan @arneduncan]

We need to talk a lot less about red and blue.
We need to talk a lot more about whiteness.

@spanishplans Teachers need to chill with the power. Let’s honor the people we are in community with above the knowledge we share. We’re not the keepers of knowledge, we build it together with our students. Let’s be a little more honest with ourselves

Valentina. So versatile—it goes great on pizza, tacos, etc BUT it’s THICK and has its own flavor that can stand on its own and make-hot take-boring chips like Fritos and classic lays a whole snack rather than the snack you eat before your REAL snack. And it’s like $1.79 🤩

@OverthrowingEd Best: You NEED feedback from your students - yes 100%!!!
Worst: You give a test when you want them to actually learn something. ...wut? Nah, I give assessments so they can see how much they’ve learned. Also what are you doing the rest of the time when you’re not testing then?

[Sadie Sattler @sadiesatt]

Wow, so much thought provoking info in this thread. Definitely worth a read if you are an educator ESPECIALLY in the time of #distancelearning. On a related note, #organicworldlanguage is exploring uncharted education territory with this philosophy at the helm

[David Bowles (has left this place) @DavidOBowles]

Do you want kids to learn? Here's something we've discovered.

Kids learn things that matter to them, either because the knowledge and skills are "cool," or because ...

... they give the kids tools to liberate themselves and their communities.

Maintaining the status quo? Nope.

@TexasTwoStep3 @leighanneg24 @nowthisisliving Lol @ “I have a gay friend”

Rick Santorum is mansplaining mansplaining on #cnn. Someone’s gonna mansplain THAT on Twitter and then we’re just in an inception tunnel forever

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

“I will not sit here and be lectured”

Patriarchy/misogyny is taking a beating tonight.

[Sadie Sattler @sadiesatt]

Pence condescending to both the moderator and Senator Harris as often as possible is so on brand #VPDebates

[Sadie Sattler @sadiesatt]

@tracyrenee70 👏👏👏 yes. Vulnerability invites honest conversations. Teachers, lets humble ourselves and not claim that our experience is universal or “right”

[Sadie Sattler @sadiesatt]

Teacher tired + switching from working in Spanish to talking in English = saying I’m making a “dinner warm-up” and my gf informing me “that’s called an appetizer” Pretty sure it’s called a warm up... #tiredaf
