I love @austinkleon’s blackout poetry and I’m really feeling this one today❤️.

Mitch McConnell in 2016: “The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president."

If I was a middle/high school teacher, these books would be my starter set for a unit on “Graphic Memoir” #handpicked_GN #tcrwp
Even with no school, Soph is working hard at learning to read.
Think @HrishiHirway and @JoshMalina will be proud of the job our youngest did reading my @WestWingWeekly t-shirt.
And @HrishiHirway will probably appreciate that Gilmore Girls is on in the background.

So many educators have been reading #StampedBook - recognizing its brilliance and the difference it will make in the world. I hope this Educator’s Guide helps you develop powerful distance learning for students as they read this most important book. @DrIbram @JasonReynolds83
We're excited to share with you the Educator Guide for #StamedBook! This guide, prepared by Dr. @SonjaCherryPaul, provides a month-long framework for using STAMPED in an educational setting, with most of the work adaptable to remote learning. Visit littlebrownlibrary.com/books…

This is ubsurd! I realize this pandemic isn’t deadly to everyone but it is to a 68 year old with a heart condition. I don’t care if @NYGovCuomo wants indictments in 12 days. This is becoming a life or death situation. Get your act together NY. #learnfromitaly #COVID19 – at Charlotte, NC
@NassauExecutive @NYSCourtsNews @nycourtspress @News12LI My 68-year-old mother is still being called for Grand Jury Duty. She said she’s one of the “young ones.” Please help protect her and other Nassau residents by suspending the Grand Jury.

My five year old has already internalized this. She comes home talking about the kids who were chosen as Star student, and how sad she is that it isn’t her. She’s only been in elementary school for two months. It breaks my heart.
