Simone Biles won nationals w/broken toes in both feet, worlds w/a kidney stone, and has carried the burden of being a face of sexual assault survivors as a national institution failed to support them

I quit my teaching job and now make more bartending for 15 less hours week. Also I get blamed for way way less and get told thank you way way more. No lesson plans or grading papers.
Remember this when people ask about the teacher shortage. – at Candler-McAfee, GA

OK, it's time to use our creativity to change things. In what ways have you used creative strategies in your teaching to change mindsets, policies, practices and the like? #ScholarStrike
I did a thing. Asked my graduate students in their assistantship role to serve as DEI Instigators this term helping to "instigate" discussions, thinking and work around topics related to diversity, equity and inclusion. #ScholarStrike
Those of you who are in teaching roles, what antiracist practices are you incorporating to disrupt your courses? #ScholarStrike

First: Watch this. She's right.
Second: Imagine what we could get done if women didn't have to deal with things like this on top of doing their job.
Rep @AOC: "I do not need Rep. Yoho to apologize to me. Clearly he does not want to. Clearly when given the opportunity he will not & I will not stay up late at night waiting for an apology from a man who has no remorse over calling women & using abusive language towards women."

At first, learning about white supremacy can be confusing or challenging.
There’s a lot there, + it can be emotionally hard to realize one may have done or participated in something racist in the past (& still may slip up!).
That’s okay. The whole point is learning + improving.

I am certain they have said:
A. I love kids.
B. I love teaching.
C. I work hard.
The real questions are:
A. Do you love all kids?
B. What are you really teaching?
C. What are you working hard to (maintain) do & for who?
