So honored to join my colleagues @yarbro and @JRClemmons, as well as Reginald Nash from the EdTrust on a panel for @TASLTN! Thanks so much for having us, you all were so well informed, but I’m not surprised;-) #LibrariansRule – at Murfreesboro, TN

At this very moment, we aren't 100% sure where we are, but we do know we are so grateful for our allies: those who stand by librarians, who stand for readers' rights to choose, and who are against #censorship and #bookbanning of any kind. Thank you to our followers & friends!

Kids read. Kids love books. To assume that they don't is an insult to them.

Yes, your life matters! And you deserve every great thing that your heart desires! These former @VineMSKnox GoldenBears are changing their community....next the world! #mylifematters
"My Life Matters" a PSA by @KnoxKUB TeenWork students at #AustinEast Magnet High School. Honored to help them make this. Every child should feel safe at school and in their community. Period. #WATE

Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Do not become bitter or hostile. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. We will find a way to make a way out of no way. #goodtrouble

Thank you for all of the kind birthday wishes. I still feel good, I feel young. I’m ready to keep fighting, to keep pushing, to keep getting in good trouble, necessary trouble so that we may continue to build the beloved community. #GoodTrouble

As @AcevedoWrites and @halseanderson were speaking about last week...fingerprints.
In 1999, Angela Johnson won the Coretta Scott King Award for her book HEAVEN. She won the award again in 2004 for THE FIRST PART LAST, which is dedicated to a then eleven-year girl named Elizabeth Acevedo, the Printz Award-winning and Pura Belpré Award-winning @AcevedoWrites

Some educators fight to keep books out of the curriculum. Others come together to discuss them. Thanks to the #Nashville friends who joined us for another wonderful evening! #edLITnash #ProjectLITBookClub
It’s a beautiful thing when a bunch of educators get together on a rainy Thursday night to discuss a book. #EdLITNash @DashkaSlater

Prepping for the week, but wanted to share our students’ six-word summaries as adults attempt to ban books like The Hate U Give. #NCTEchat

When the adults in a school acknowledge & greet each other kindly & genuinely, it’s a clear modeling & example for students to do the same to their fellow classmates.
This is #culture building one salutation at a time.
