The courage to lead…”when you never forget who you’re fighting for, you never stop fighting. Always remember your why. In the everyday it’s easy to get lost, but when you reconnect with your why…you can always find the energy to keep pushing on” - Gov. of Maryland #nacac2023

Join me to VOTE for the musical RANKED at #SXSW2023! The arts play a crucial role in celebrating our students and amplifying their voices within their communities to transform educational systems. This musical exemplifies just that. panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/13…

Love this idea of "Analysis Paralysis," Don't let the analysis of your learning paralyze you from doing the work. You can't intellectualize a revolution! @chrisemdin #HTHGSE

"We are not just here to elevate the mind. We are here to ACTIVATE THE HEART. We are resisting against the years of harm that has been done." @chrisemdin #ratchetdemic #HTHGSE

These two legends. I could listen to them connect all day long. So grateful and thank you for sharing your brilliance with us today. @tonyminnieapple @chrisemdin #HTHGSE #ratchetdemic

Love these questions shared with us today @GholdyM! Think about your PBL Units and reflect on these questions to be intentional about culturally & historically responsive education. #BeyondNTAC @newtechnetwork

"Why should our students have to be resilient with our curriculum?! We can write better standards! We can write better curriculum!" - Yes, we are all designers who can design better instruction that liberates and advances students' happiness! @GholdyM #BeyondNTAC @newtechnetwork

"When you erase truth, people live in a pool of ignorance!" YES those in power make choices of which truths and whose truths to share! Let's work to amplify TRUTH by questioning and interrogating text. @GholdyM #BeyondNTAC @newtechnetwork

@GholdyM "We have to disrupt! We cannot be in our classrooms and ignore what's happening in our environments." #BeyondNTAC @newtechnetwork
