A year back I had the wonderful opportunity to speak with many of Pratham India’s senior leadership team members to understand how they, their teams and the organization were adapting to the rapidly changing context and adaptive pressures generated by COVID-19 (1/2)
#Leadership | "An important task for leaders during a crisis like this is to help teams find a new and renewed sense of meaning and purpose." @stuti78 and Rukmini Banerji (@Pratham_India) share six key factors that helped them adapt to the #COVID19

RIP #RBG. Read this tonight to my 6 year old in your remembrance. Tonight, as holding onto hope feels tenuous, I hold in my heart MLK’s words, that the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice.
This - “As Brown folks with deep roots in colonialism, colorism, and classism, we carry white supremacy within us.
But we also carry resistance within us. MLK borrowed ahimsa from Gandhi. So we know - in our bones - that “No one is free until we are all free.”
To my South Asian American brothers and sisters, if you don’t believe the fight against anti-Blackness is exactly where we should be spending 1000% of our energy [always], you are missing the point.
Here’s why: 1/

Great piece on home learning: “Learning at home provides longer blocks, allows for more choice, more depth, and more ways that it can fit the needs and desires of the child. It allows students to become more self-directed in their learning and take more agency over it”

A thoughtful piece about opportunities for social justice Ed for parents of color in these days of homeschooling. Resonates with my family’s experience. We are exploring Indian history with much greater depth than we might otherwise have.

An important read - so much from the article resonated deeply. It takes a village to raise kids and we are confronting what happens when we can’t pretend anymore that it’s otherwise.

My 6 yr old is really interested & curious about Mahatma Gandhi. We've visited Sabarmati Ashram, read couple of books & she loves her charkha. Looking for ideas to engage her - resources, ideas, maybe lesson plans? Any history or other teachers on my timeline with ideas?

via @NYTimes beautiful & compelling read. Speaks to losses and hopes. Glides effortlessly between the systemic & personal. There are many gems. This one stood out: “..we are still a thread in the fabric that might unravel if you yanked us from the weave.” nytimes.com/2020/04/23/magaz…

@_tracyelizabeth I saw this and remembered you! Moana is Anahita’s absolute favorite movie as well!

My 5 yr old loves the water but refuses to put her face under water. At her group swim lesson today was amazed to see her pinch her nose & dunk the whole face underwater. All because a girl in her group was doing it & showed her how to. Reminder of the power of peer learning!
