Schools scared to death.
The truth is, one education under desks,
Stooped low from bullets;
That plunge when we ask
Where our children
Shall live
& how
& if

We extend our heartfelt thoughts to the families of those killed in the Buffalo, NY, mass shooting. As educators and justice advocates, we stand in solidarity to counter the anti-democratic ideologies that lead to these violent attacks. Please support our youth in this moment.

This morning, I was asked by a young scholar, "How do write for impact?" I shared a process that I've developed over time that is pretty simple, but it's been effective for me. 🧵⬇️⬇️⬇️

Congratulations to these future science teachers for thinking outside the box when it comes to teaching science and to Professor @aluehmann, who continues to mentor these graduate students and successfully lead the Warner School's @getrealscience program.

Wrote this poem several months ago and it echoed inside me today. Sometimes we have no words. And sometimes words are all we have.

Though we strobed
That we came in peace,
He was already at war.
We have battled hard to be.
Nothing—
Nothing—
Can keep you safe.
Silence least of all.
Look alive, everyone.
May such a prayer,
A people,
A peace,
A promise,
Be ours.
Be right
& radiant
& real.
