“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." Letter from Birmingham, Alabama jail, April 16, 1963.

Replying to @born2_teach
@born2_teach did this through engagement and empowerment. She actually engaged me in conversations about teacher leadership and best practices. Then I was empowered to implement those best practices with the teams that I led and as professional development lead teacher.

It’s 3/21 and it’s World Down Syndrome Awareness Day! Why 3:21? Because people born with DS have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome. Why socks? Because chromosomal pairs look like socks! Today we’re rocking our socks in celebration of my Aya.
