A colleague recently posted a photo of the clipboards he'd bought for his teachers to support them in observing more effectively & helping them to be more responsive to students. The cynics had a lot of fun with that. "Clipboards? Am I missing something?" one responded. The answer to that is: Yes, you most definitely are. teachlikeachampion.org/blog/…

After four years of defending ridiculously divisive nonsense, one rather unhinged speech does not save you, @LindseyGrahamSC. You will forever be on the wrong side of history.

#whiteprivilege Black people fighting for their lives, teargassed. White people commiting treason allowed to breach Congress, nothing. They are white terrorists.

We are shot while sleeping #BreonnaTaylor We are shot while jogging #AhmaudArbery We are shot while playing #TamirRice & the list goes on BUT the fact that this man made it all the way to the #USCapitol without being shot or killed is the true definition of #whiteprivilege.

Hey @Delta ! My 34 minute wait has turned into 2 hours and this is after I was calling all day yesterday. I have a flight leaving TOMORROW. Is there a way for someone to contact me. I also tried the direct messaging service and had no luck.

When I say they're African, I’m not saying it as a way to exclude them from their Frenchness. I’m saying it to include them in my Africanness.
