News of an educator calling a school resource officer after an 11-year-old refused to say the Pledge of Allegiance reminds us why we must understand the school to prison pipeline—and why we must interrupt it. These resources can help. https://t.co/amJrfU2PNG

This weekend was amazing. The love and support for children from all educators present in El Paso and the LiveStream was palpable. I am in awe of getting to work with our wonderful 2018 National Teacher of the Year @MandyRheaWrites to #FreeOurFuture This is only the beginning.

Today is just the start. We must continue using our voice as teachers to advocate for children. If not us, who? If not now, when? The US Gov’t is incarcerating 10,000+ children because of where they were born. We cannot be silent until they are free. https://t.co/zs2lFD2M7s

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

We’re in El Paso talking to educators with @TeachersACD who are demanding that the U.S. government end the detention and criminalization of immigrant children and their families. #EducationNotDetention

[Giselle Lundy-Ponce @LundyPonce]

Powerful speakers at the @TeachersACD Teach-In. From lessons on empowering kids to learn our constitutional rights to reading kids' poignant poetry about feeling afraid. "Educators are the civil rights police". #Classroomsnotcages #educationnotdetention

[Teachers Against Child Detention @TeachersACD]

#NotesFromNationalEmergency We are in El Paso with teachers from across the country and Mexico to call for an end to the criminalization and detention of innocent immigrant children. #educationnotdetenion #classroomsnotcages
