I don’t feel insulted when people say “You’re just being #political.”
Because #politics are about #policies that impact #people and the #conditions of #communities.
“Your father wasn’t political.”
SEE: voting rights, fair housing, labor laws, Selma, Montgomery, etc.

Reminder: Teachers didn't cause this global pandemic.
Reminder: Every teacher wants to be back in school full-time - & every day, we get closer to that goal.
Reminder: Every teacher wants & deserves a safe learning environment for their students & themselves.

I have a message for all the little girls and boys out there who dream of growing up to be superheroes: Superheroes walk among us.
They’re teachers, doctors, scientists, vaccine researchers—and you can grow up to be like them too.
