1/ I wish you health.
Your body. Your mind.
A safe, cozy place to be.
Some good company.
Human or animal or
beloved memories of lives
and people that mattered.
A big, satisfying meal.
Mountains of mashed potatoes.
With a pond of butter, if you choose.
I wish you a smile, a story.

Dr. Ronda Taylor Bullock @DisruptivPeace·

It bothers me when white ppl say “I only teach white students so I don’t know why Im here.” Um, you only teach white kids bc of racism. Racism is present whether or not Black ppl are. Lady, you teach at a white supremacy factory. Come get this education.

“A contemporary educational operating system would be learner-centered. Students would come to school to be studied. Three, recurring questions would spiral throughout the k-12 experience:
▪Who am I?
▪Why am I here?
▪What will I do?” https://twitter.com/innovativeEd/status/1330886143701897216
