It is a good day in America @VanJones68! Thank you for saying what so many of us are feeling!
Today is a good day. It’s easier to be a parent this morning. Character MATTERS. Being a good person MATTERS. This is a big deal. It’s easy to do it the cheap way and get away with stuff — but it comes back around. Today is a good day. #PresidentBiden #VotersDecided

Inside the march I could actually hear feet marching for justice. Washington was loud!
An estimated 60,000 people are walking with us today in Seattle's March of Silence, with tens of thousands more all across the state. Thank you WA for turning out.

Can't make it to Seattle for the Silent March tomorrow? Events are happening in solidarity all across the state. Find an event in your community on our website, being updated in live time. #BLM #BLMSeattle #BLMStrikeOut blacklivesseattle.org/statew…

Thank you @MichaelFullan1 for championing Citizenship and Character as key skills all learners need! We are at an inflection point in how we prepare the next generation. It is clear those competencies will need to come first. Excited to hear the talk!
Is this the time to transform public education?

We need to always talk about the skills needed for citizenship, work, and learning together. They are mostly the same skills—critical thinking, collaboration, and communication. But, in addition, empathy is an essential citizenship disposition.
I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real change––and pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. medium.com/@BarackObama/how-…
