We will forever fight the good fight. We will always get into good trouble. We will continue to defeat that which aims to defeat us. We will relentlessly seek the justice that you taught us to yearn for because life without it is not life. Your spirits are evergreen.

Today is Juneteenth—a day for celebration and remembrance that should be part of our collective knowledge of freedom struggles in this country. May our educators and youth continue the fight to ensure that the promise of freedom is delivered.

Many educators are trying to meet this moment. Others are looking for a better understanding of racism and antiracism. This collection has many resources that can help educators plan conversations with young people—and learn more themselves.

Educators! This conference is online for 2020 and has been some of the most influential PD I've done two years in a row. @DrLaGarrettKing and his team have challenged me and taught me and made me a better ELA educator and human.
