My two greatest hopes for this book are 1 - to who folks that educational injustices don't just happen, they are designed. 2 - everybody, from classroom teachers to families, to district leaders to policy makers, can make true tangible change. amazon.com/gp/product/195281…

Pa. school funding lawsuit verdict is ‘correct.’ But the fight for equity isn’t over. | Opinion inquirer.com/opinion/comment… via @phillyinquirer @zfwright @Phillys7thWard

Pa. school funding lawsuit verdict is ‘correct.’ But the fight for equity isn’t over. | Opinion

What happens next will determine if true change will occur. Will formulas be rewritten so the wealthy and powerful districts see less funding, and poor districts see more? The track record says no.

What was the most meaningful critique you have received about your teaching—how was it communicated and how has it affected your practice? Read Dr. Dale Ripley's and @zfwright's response to this question on @educationweek: bit.ly/3jSRztf

Sometimes just a moment in time or a one-off comment can change the way teachers view their practice. Educators share @MsAmberChandler, @zfwright, and Dale Ripley their experiences. #EWOpinion @Larryferlazzo edweek.org/teaching-learning…

Today @Troy4NJ7 came to visit and talk about the NJ legislature. His interactive presentation helped us better understand how bills become laws. The value of his visit will stick with our students long after 4th grade is over. Thank you Senator! #CollsEdu #TeamTroy #TatemTweets

It is a mistake to believe that someone's idea is their devotion, especially regarding anti-racism in education. @zfwright gets honest about his role as an anti-racist white educator on The LP. ubnd.org/3GWMngV

Fast facts: teacher prep can have an imbalanced focus on theory. There can also be a racial imbalance of theorists that are focused on. @zfwright offers an equity-based proposal to rectify this on the LP ubnd.org/3kaDya0

I've known @zfwright to be a good dude devoted to naming inequities in the education system but also backing it up with powerful instruction. I'm grateful for his book, and the convo we got to have!

“The system is not too big. And that particularly, for smaller, predominantly white districts, the work is not to be done elsewhere. The work has to be done right in your own backyard.” What does @zfwright want you to learn from his book? Listen now! 📚 bit.ly/3CEZTRB
