Congrats to my friend and @BronxFoundation board member on the publication of his new book..Finding Your Leadership Soul..this book is a beautiful labor of love….
Good Morning - It’s with pride & humility that I share the publication of my new book - a labor of love that has been years in the making - Finding Your Leadership Soul. Pre-orders now available. Thank you in advance for the support 🙏🏿❤️LeadershipSoul.org#LeadershipSoul
When I am deeply sad it so hard for me to find words…A year ago I was in Israel, I had the opportunity to listen and learn from Israeli’s and Palestinians. When I left my hope was for peace, my hope was for understanding…this world is breaking my heart.
ALT I stand in solidarity with all Israelis and Palestinians who are grieving the loss of their loved ones, who are grieving the destruction of their homes and neighborhoods—who are grieving as they lay in the presence of extreme uncertainty, as they stare off into a past and a future of incessant war, gruesome violence, and power creating and manipulating fear and hate to expand power. I stand in solidarity as an African American whose people have also experienced massacres, apartheid, forced removals, open-air prisons, terrorist violence, indiscriminate starving and murdering of young and elderly people, with racist ideas justifying all this carnage. I stand in solidarity as a human being with human beings around the world from Gaza to Geneva, from Tel Aviv to Tulsa, from Poltava to Pittsburgh, from the West Bank to West Africa, from Tijuana to Tripoli, from Jerusalem to Jakarta, who long for what we have never fully known. Peace.
So excited to share this space with @bigpiclearning and my sis @DenaSimmons who is truly a whole cup of joy!!!! The #HipHopEd conference was a whole dang vibe!!!
So proud of Principal Rojas!!! The second Principal I had the privilege of bringing to D11. What she has built at the STEAM Bridge school is unrivaled. Amazing Principals aren’t a dime a dozen they are one in a million and she is most certainly ONE!!
EL CURRICULUM share @District11BX’s 481! Principal Rojas’s vision as an INSTRUCTIONAL LEADER & its impact on her staff&students’ success showcased that the effective use of a curriculum starts with the LEADER in charge!🙌🏽@cristinevaughan@MeishaPorter@LynneveNash@DOEChancellor

This is absolutely heartbreaking! Who could imagine their 6th grade child receiving such detailed and insanely racist Black History Month cards — written in crayon! This learned behavior starts at home and has to STOP!
Who should protect our sons, our brothers…how many times will we lose them as they call for their mothers to save them….Tyre Nichols deserved to live…when will this stop!!
