"Mental health providers should be a priority in schools. If school could become a place where students can feel safe and seen, vs a place where they receive more to be worried about that would be best."

"Schooling is steeped in Whiteness. I think there's a difference between schooling and education. The sooner we move toward education, the better we'll be." @damarisdunn_ #EduColorSummit

"The myth: The shortage of Black teachers. No, it's a shortage of spaces where Black teachers feel called to because of what we need to deal with." @_CrystalMWatson

I want to stay with this for a bit...because I certainly love the idea of teaching as a form of birthing life; new life.
What I'm wondering:
What do I help birth in my students?
What type of life are we creating through the learning we do together?

@damarisdunn_ said the notion of "birthing" came up alot in her research with Black women educators. Notion that we birth things in students and students birth things in us, that we all birth things out of ourselves...

@damarisdunn_ dropped the concpet of "Word Funerals" as a way to "put words to rest" that are harmful, self defeating, and more. This was one of the creative ways Black women were making joy in their classrooms. #EduColorSummit

The creativity and innovation of the Black women educators that @damarisdunn_ was able to tap into in her PhD research is just... beautiful, empowering, revealing... (I need more words)

Now @damarisdunn_ is talking about joy, Black women, and resistance in the school house. I can't even try to summarize. Title: "Bearing Witness and Withness to Black Women Teachers Joy"

@shamarikreid said WE TEACH THROUGH TRAUMA AND HE IS ONE THOUSAND PERCENT ACCURATE.
"So when I actually fell, there was no one there to catch me."

Now he said he's not asking us to share beyond what we can unpack in this 30 minutes or to share trauma, but to be ready to be a bit uncomfortable. Let's go... @shamarikreid #EduColorSummit

Okay. @shamarikreid just had us do an exercise here on Zoom and I'm going to sit with this for a few... The prompts were definitely challenging and intentional. An interactive Zoom keynote!! Yes #EduColorSummit

Call to action from @nhannahjones for teachers/educators, really all of us:
Instead of saying "I'm happy I don't live there" speak up on behalf of the educators in the states where there are laws & policies that silence them. Speak up and stand in solidarity.

I can't imagine what it is to be an immigrant student and watch the RNC where they have signs saying "Mass Deportations"... @nhannahjones
