What an important study! Thank you @aagrooms for all that you do!
Excited to share more of my research w/@dmahatmya and @EboneeTJohnson on the retention of educators of color. Check out our new article - written with 2 wonderful doc students - exploring job burnout and race-related stress among women of color K-12 educators.

Yes. It feels pretty radical to claim it is right & good to make 100+ times what one's line workers make for the same amount of time working & that it's okay not to pay a living wage to some when others profit. This seems in line w-@swalker06 re: how we are conditioned to think.

Talking about race with colleagues can be challenging. Our new blog-"Using Agreements"-introduces a series on the Educational Equity Resources Portal about how agreements for talking about race can help you start to create a space for team conversations edequityresources.com/agreem…
West Wind Education Policy's latest blog focuses on maintaining dignity in the classroom following a contentious election such as tomorrow's.
With Election Day in America rapidly approaching, our latest blog focuses on supporting dignity in the classroom. "How do we, as professionals in schools and districts respond? How can we create spaces of belongingness in our schools for all our children?" shar.es/abLjf3

Pleased to be in the @IowaSTEM two-day workshop on equity in STEM education. #IAequityinSTEM
Thank you, @isaiahmcgee! Wow, that time flew. It was great to be in the discussion tonight. #corechat
A4: Read! Listen. We have so much information at our fingertips about what implicit bias is and how it plays out in schooling. We need to be open to the fact that we all have bias and that it is our responsibility to overcome its influence. #corechat
A3: A core tenet of democracy is diversity and difference. Too often, we celebrate winning at the expense of good social decision making. Refocus how we think about and teach democracy and civics to privilege variety in perspectives. #CoreChat
A1: #CoreChat What do you think abt educators who focus on relationships-to create belongingness-but don't engage w/students of color as learners/don't see students of colors as learners? Implicit bias seeps into how many educators think of belonging. I would love your insights!
@UITeacherLeader Center moved SO quickly to help make this happen! They also agreed to offer discounts during the current pandemic-related school closures, to add to our discounts. Thank you for being so responsive! #iaedchat #iaedchat
