JoyAnn Boudreau @MrsBoudreau·

I learned about Japanese Internment because of a sophomore ELA teacher. I never learned about the Tulsa massacre, the Mexican Repatriation, & many others until I was an adult. We must learn our full history. How can we envision our future without knowing where we’ve been? https://twitter.com/andrewsolender/status/1306676200782299138

The head of the CDC says we could contain this virus in as little as 6 weeks if everyone would wear a mask. Let's be clear: not wearing one is violent.

You're putting everyone around you in danger. And I don't know what to say to people who weren't raised *not to do that.*

Today is a good day to donate to the @ZinnEdProject.

I am thankful for their work every day. They, like Howard Zinn, transformed my life as an educator and human being. Love and solidarity with all the rad educators out there who continue to teach and learn in Zinn's legacy. https://twitter.com/ZinnEdProject/status/1306682768873619456

A piece I’m calling “Dear Julie.” Thanks so much to @ehartrich for talking with me, Mary Hendrie and @educationweek for the space and the support to write this.

Is anyone else out there doing pandemic teaching and raising teenagers on different schedules + trying to show up for them? This is haaaaard.
