If your "belonging" efforts are your way around racial justice rather than your way to directly confront racism, then your "belonging" efforts are just as racist as whatever you thought they were going to fix.

Every time I type the words "equity leadership" I note that the reason we have to append "equity" onto "leadership" is that most popular leadership frameworks created by white people are silent on equity and justice. I also note that this is probably why they're popular.

Kyle Rittenhouse was glorified in the Facebook group that started campaigning against this Black superintendent, which factored into her decision to move out of the county b/c she feared for her safety.
That's my "objective" take, with an education "angle."
Logging off now.
Andrea Kane — the former superintendent of Queen Anne’s County Public Schools — sent an email to parents after the murder of George Floyd. What she saw as a “reality check” engulfed her small, predominantly white Maryland community in a yearlong firestorm. nyti.ms/3FybVOz

Yes. You should discuss the Rittenhouse trial verdict in you classroom. Discuss the history, the statistics, the injustice, race, racism, white tears, systemic change, patriarchy. Yes, discuss it.
Be critical.
Discuss race.
Use theory.

Today we recognize the iconic civil rights & political activist Yuri Kochiyama, who dedicated her life to social justice & human rights.
Kochiyama's activism started in the early 1960s & in 1963 she met Malcolm X, whose friendship changed her life & outlook. #AAPIHeritageMonth
