While today’s terrible display of terror and meanness shakes us, let’s remember: @ossoff, Jewish son of an immigrant & @ReverendWarnock, first Black Senator from Georgia, will join a Catholic POTUS & the first woman, Black + Indian VP in our nation’s capital. God bless America.

Smartest thing I heard from a supt recently: As part of reopening planning, arrange a simulated school day (or even 1/2 day) for key stakeholders (supt, bd, union pres, etc) to "attend" school under draft plan. From bus to class to bathroom, walk in their shoes b4 deciding.

You can't manufacture solidarity. This isn't a checklist, it's LIFELONG work. You are either about it, or need to do the work to get about it.

"Systems thinking is too advanced for undergraduates" an economics professor once told me. I just taught the basics of feedback loops to my 11 y.o. twins and then they drew this. It's time to teach & use the tools we all need for the complex challenges we face now & ahead.
