Sometimes it's your friend who seems the most together who is barely holding it together.
Depression and anxiety in Black women can show up as hyper focus and doing it all. Sadly that means people just keep adding to our loads.

We welcomed 94 TLC Lead Teachers this week (yay!) We hope to share the co-learning in the months ahead.
Meanwhile, we’re reading “Braiding Sweetgrass” by Robin Wall Kimmerer or “Indigenous Writes” by Chelsea Vowel to deepen our understanding of Indigenous education. Read along!

What an honor to be on @TIME 's new cover. From the interview: "In all the forms of expression of human life, we’re seeing that artistry be informed by the Black experience. I can’t imagine anything more exciting than that."

Educators nationwide are facing backlash for signaling inclusion and anti-racism. We are proud of this teacher and the students who rose to her defense. It's not up for debate that educators should value every child. More school leaders should say so.

To our community of educators, wherever this may find you: There is no one-size-fits-all response to this moment. But we're here. We're listening. We're grieving and angry and resolved. And like you, we'll continue to engage in the work.

I’m sure many of us have heard these statements. Some of the best experiences I’ve had to prepare for work in #AntiOppression #Education is to anticipate these types of challenges and role play responses. I believe the language we use is so critical in creating positive change.

#BlackLivesMatter began #OTD in 2013 with a simple but powerful affirmation in the face of injustice. The movement’s mission remains necessary. t-t.site/2EXa0aI

Leadership in turbulent times requires...nay, demands that we not retreat but engage with passion, innovation, care and courage.

As another school year ends, this is a good time to regroup and think about strategies that will safeguard students and prepare them to create a world that values diversity, inclusion and respect for differences. #HateAtSchool t-t.site/2RjzmCq

The Oakland Police ought to apologize to Masai Ujiri for not recognizing his legitimacy and right to walk on the court after his team won the NBA Championship. The fact Mr Ujiri had to prove that he belongs there is insulting. Good on Kyle Lowry for the instincts to step in.

“They’re so quick to address situations about vaping, skipping school and everything. But when it comes to racism, they never want to address it. They never want to say, ‘This is happening at our own school, we shouldn’t be doing it.’ It’s not O.K.” t-t.site/2WqkJmC

“He told me I had to pick: Be Native, or be queer. I didn’t want to pick.” The ongoing—and often overlooked—struggles of LGBTQ people in the Midwest is one of your must-read stories this week. t-t.site/2QDKOIF
