Amazing few days in New York as Paul Forbes leads Defining US screenings and town hall meetings across the state. Thank you Paul, Dr. Kristy De La Cruz, Bennett Lieberman, Camille Forbes and (@CSD_4) for showing us a "beloved community." Wish I could have been there!

[Paul Forbes @PaulForbesNYC]

Spent the morning in East Harlem (@CSD_4) at their DCEP meeting. Thanks to Superintendent De La Cruz for inviting me to screen the @DefiningUs: Children at the Crossroads of Change documentary followed by a Community Conversation. When we know our “why”, the work will follow!

@PaulForbesNYC @DrJasonJohnson @DefiningUs @Slate Thank you for continuing to move the #workbehindthe work forward and for sharing words of wisdom on why it's more important than ever to have courageous, critical, and constructive conversations that can unite and will define US.

Amazing how the children lead us! So glad you were there and so moved by what you heard and shared in the classroom. Grateful for the teachers and students across our nation who have so much to teach us!

@StaceyDewitt5 I wish you could have heard the amazing discussion by 5th graders(!!) re: the @DefiningUs title slide.

Thread: Last night a screening of @DefiningUs: Children at the Crossroads of Change (https://t.co/vo6mI1ZYVo) in NYC allowed me to reconnect with so many folks.
I am especially grateful to @DOEChancellor for his presence, kind and inspirational words. (1/5)

[Paul Forbes @PaulForbesNYC]

And yes, there is a screening and there is a Q & A portion with members of the cast but more importantly, we want this documentary to be rooted in and used for engaging & interactive critical and courageous community conversations.
Grateful to see that realized last night (2/5)

[Stacey Dewitt @StaceyDewitt5]

@PaulForbesNYC @MsHarrisonPCSD @DefiningUs Thanks Kerianne and Paul! So grateful for the dedication and talent of the entire cast and crew and to people like Kerrianne who are spreading the word!
