I feel like there's ONE piece of advice I want to give people who want to create interactive meetings/sessions (esp online, but even f2f) and it's to harness those first 5-10 minutes by giving people an opportunity to interact and be themselves, not focusing them on yourself

Amid all the demands to take down Gay Pride/ rainbow flags in classrooms, I decided to dig into the history a little. FL teaching peeps, hang this on your walls—it’s educational! #history #rainbows #gaypride #explore #visualimpact
