Why do we not listen to the numbers when they paint very clear pictures of disparity? #Barriers #WhiteSupremacy We need to acknowledge both qualitative and quantitative data as both critical and legitimate, and to use this data to inform our actions. #Decolonize #FESI2020

it makes me think of that announcement they make on planes about putting your mask on so you can take care of others. our educators do not have their masks on. they are not okay. but they are called upon to do extraordinary things for our kids. we can't turn away.
how is this sustainable for our educators????? and for those BIPOC educators who are doing the damn work every day of anti-racism, taking up the space as educators to their own colleagues... man how do we even begin to hold these educators up????

Wk2 of virtual kindergarden in LC4 @tdsb . My kid's happy, adores his teacher, loves the routine, slowly learning how to mute/unmute, and likes seeing his classmates. It's great but the question that's keeping me up at night is - at what cost to his teacher's mental health???
