Rereading this gem. So appropriate for what our country is facing. We can’t just talk about equity, we’ve got to learn how to make our Ed system equitable. Education is powerful, but it must be delivered in such a way that ALL students are of value. This book! Great start.

If any RRISD staff is struggling to know what to do with recent events(I know I am), a first step is to sign up for a book study this summer on "How to Be an Antiracist". I am looking forward to learning and listening to others in the district. roundrock.schoolobjects.com/…

Barack and I had so much fun reading “The Word Collector” for a family read-a-long through the @chipublib. This book is one of my favorites—it reminds me of what it was like to get lost in the magic of words as a little kid. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

I’m thrilled to give you a sneak peek of BECOMING before it premieres on Netflix on May 6. This movie tells my story, from my childhood on the South Side of Chicago to my life today—and it celebrates the powerful stories of the people I met along the way. #IAmBecoming

I loved this book. It was such a sweet read. It also reminded me of The Great Treehouse War by Lisa Graff.
If you like FIRST RULE OF PUNK or SHUG then you’ll love @andimJULIE’s 2020 #LoneStarList pick, DEAR SWEET PEA, in which Sweet Pea is struggling with her parents’ recent divorce when she secretly starts answering letters to the advice column of her local newspaper. @harperteen
