Big shout-out to the @TeachersCollege and @Columbia libraries - @TCgottesman & @columbialib! Everyone has been so helpful in the past few days of my research journey process and it is very much appreciated!
As racial justice conversations continue to grip the US & divide communities, teachers at this week’s @ReimagineEdTC are affirming their commitment to inclusion & culturally inclusive education. @CBSNewYork offers an inside look at a critical moment. ⬇️

Still in awe of the ideas and everything from @chrisemdin at #RESI2022… So grateful to be in that space and very appreciative for being able to catch him in the hallway afterwards to say hello. I’ll definitely be replaying his words in my mind throughout the school year. Wow.
“Lead with what you love. You cannot be culturally relevant to anybody until you’re culturally relevant to yourself.” - @chrisemdin

“Young people learn when they are affirmed, loved, and welcomed.” - @chrisemdin at #RESI2022 @ReimagineEdTC
“Inclusion is in our teaching, content, and relationships… Inclusion is not just the spatial arrangement - it’s how we include our kids in the classroom ecology.” - Subini Ancy Annamma, @StanfordEd at @ReimagineEdTC #RESI2022
Powerful points from Subini Ancy Annamma of @StanfordEd about the need to shift away from approaches that are focused on “fixing students instead of fixing broken systems” #RESI2022 @ReimagineEdTC
Such a powerful way of thinking about classrooms as “sites/sights” of policy with @TheJLV at #RESI2022 @ReimagineEdTC #ThisWeKnow
“You have to be bold enough to stand up and to do it with joy. To do it with love.” - @BLoveSoulPower

“Tech is part of the process.” - @detramichelle
Really powerful thoughts about tech as a curricular material and access… How is tech used and presented? Who is allowed access and when - and what does that implicitly and explicitly communicate?
