Our future is in good hands: When these MN students noticed that not everyone could use their school playground they took action - raising $300K to purchase upgrades accessible to classmates with physical disabilities.

Looks like many Twitter employees have decided to leave instead of agreeing to Elon's unrealistic expectations. As a result...Twitter is closing its office until Monday! It will be interesting to see if there is much left of this platform by next week. Definitely a shame to see!

Please don’t act like everyone loved my father. He was assassinated. A 1967 poll reflected that he was one of the most hated men in America. Most hated. Many who quote him now and evoke him to deter justice today would likely hate, and may already hate, the authentic King. #MLK

As you honor my father today, please honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy died. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no #MLKDay. #MLK  #BelovedCommunity

A7 #MasteryChat Be present, actively listen, and show empathy. With @thrive_sdg I've had the chance to mentor 2 young women this summer. It's made me realize young people are anxious of their future & we need to build their confidence + guide them forward!
A6 #MasteryChat Being a role-model by diversifying your friend circles, music, food, shows, literature, etc. Honestly, I wish more students had the opportunity like me to live in different countries. This by far widens one's perspective on the life and the world!

#MasteryChat Well for whatever reason the US feels the need to stay in control and justify war. Colonization still exists...it's just done more through business & politics. Here in Mexico + Latin America many of the banks & chains are either Spanish or American.

A4 #masterychat Being raised in the US...I learned most of history of Europeans/Christians colonizing the Americas and Africa in a positive light. We rarely learn the perspective from other religions and cultures. Also, how many Americans learn about all the 196 countries?

A3 #masterychat What I can't imagine is this school year and policing social distancing for schools that have to open... Aside from that I'd say to build an environment of respect, trust and openness. Also to support all students have their voice heard including introverts.
