What would happen if we centered students in policy and decision-making? Young people deserve a say in their education, and deserve to know the truth of the world they are walking into.

If you’ve got issues with “cancel culture” maybe learn the history of the word “cancel” & unpack the way whiteness has appropriated it (as always) in order to avoid accountability... then let’s have a nuanced convo on consequence culture. https://t.co/3AFat7O9lm

Great read about the necessity of cross community solidarity. https://t.co/sZ2vBlHimH

“We know that justice is the heart of what we want for our young people and for society at large.” Learning for Justice Director Jalaya Liles Dunn explains our new name and the work that lies ahead for all of us as we envision just, equitable schools. https://t.co/3aoZXpA8QY

As you honor my father today, please honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy died. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no #MLKDay. #MLK  #BelovedCommunity

Excellent post and graphics! Please read and move to action.

Let’s get the details right. It’s a different story without the details. This must be a conversation that we don’t whitewash.

Our team has compiled a resource list to support teachers in holding conversations with their students following today’s insurrection at the US Capitol https://t.co/ClOiKqAhkX

[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

Again. Today is an example. How were Trump’s fascist supporters able to penetrate the Capitol? We all know that would never happen if these were antifascist or antiracism protesters.

If you're an organization invested in anti-racist work & haven't considered how the glass cliff has shown up in your own hiring practices, read this, interrupt these practices, & support women & WOC. Don't set them up for failure. https://t.co/2TGNlJw0vP via @TODAYshow

Excellent resource on creating #Nonbinary- & #Transgender-Inclusive Classrooms by Kristin Mink. Check it out, bookmark it, and make it part of your daily teaching practice to create a classroom environment where ALL students belong. https://t.co/J1480bI9ee

[Switching Codes with Eric Deggans @Deggans]

Spent a few weeks on this one: Even white supremacists don't want to be called racist. So, if you want to defeat systemic prejudice, simply saying you're not racist isn't enough. Here's a Life Kit episode, hosted by yours truly, on How To Be Anti Racist. https://t.co/3tVIS8h1pv

Today, words are hard to find. Let's allow John Lewis' final essay guide us in these dark times as we continue to push for a better, more just future for all. https://t.co/5hWlE1LxEZ

Written in March but more relevant than ever.

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

Whichever shape your reopening plans take this fall, many students have experienced traumas during this pandemic—and will continue to face loss, economic stress, isolation and more. Here are trauma-informed approaches to supporting them.

Thanks, @lisaqloeb for sharing this resource! I hope more #matheducators think about how they make math a tool for discussing #socialjustice issues. https://t.co/SZII49odlV

Dear White Teachers, I hope that when you go back to school (in-person or online) that you don't forget the power your voice has to move the conversation on anti-racism forward. Your BIPOC students, colleagues, and white students need you to step up. https://t.co/rnXw4CduoX
