"In the US school system, 53% represents the percentage of students of color in the US school system. Numerically they're not in the minority. They're historically excluded from high-quality education. Purposefully." - @DrKChilds #OURHIVE
2) "I only speak through the lens of data. Think about the data within your educational environment. The data tells a story. We have to own that story and utilize the story."
3) "I need us to find out who our students are. Do we truly take time to get to know them? Do we intertwine their backgrounds into their academic experiences?"
4) "We have to change the approach based on who our students are and what they bring to the table. They all bring some level of genius potential. Our job is to unpack it."
5) "We have to develop a plan with a focus on three areas: Access & Equity, Tracking, Curriculums." 
6) "How are you authentically getting to know your students to authentically leverage their cultural backgrounds? Include English learners. We can't say we care about all students when we leave students out."
7) "How are we holding everyone accountable? Making sure our colleagues are using high quality materials and they reach our students. Making sure we have diverse voices at the table. Making sure we're focused on curriculum quality core instruction and not intervention."
8) "When you have a majority of your students in interventions, you have a core curriculum problem. If you don't provide grade-level materials, they're never going to catch up."
9) "When I say representation, it's not just in the curriculum. It's going beyond. Do students see themselves authentically throughout the curriculum? What books are around? Who is purposely represented and who is not?
At all levels we need representation."
At all levels we need representation."
10) "I am serious about the business of educating students. We need to be more bold in our actions as it relates to the business of educating students."
11) "Think about the context of a task and the power it has to unlock discussions about what is happening right now in society. When we're educating students, it's so much deeper than if they can pass a test."
12) "We can't just say we're going back in August to teach. We have to start thinking outside of our norms and paradigm because our students deserve more. We, as educators, are obligated to do more."
13) "We have to get out of the notion of 'We're not going to talk about these things.' It matters. It's happening. We need to be able to have these conversations."
14) "We have to have these courageous discussions because what we do, and what we don't do, impacts our students. It's time to learn. It's time to unpack what we know and do not know. And we need to be ready to accept a new truth."
15) "We can't tell students to grow and learn if we're not willing to do the same. If I didn't make you uncomfortable today, I didn't do my job! We have to grow and learn." #getuncomfortable
16) "Mentor someone who does not look like you in terms of gender and ethnicity and help them attain something you did."
17) "Everybody loves excuses. I don't. When I talk to teachers, don't tell me what you can't do. What CAN you do? Control what you can control and stop making excuses."
18) "It's not about leading by title, it's about leading from where you are. If you're an educator, you're a leader. In the educational space, we can do something. We can build upon what students bring to the educational experience."
19) "We are taught that America is this great melting pot, and we come together to make one great America. But that's a lie. America's a salad. You don't put a salad in a blender. Every piece plays a role. Every student is unique."
20) "Our job is to liberate students so they can go out and do great things. Our job is to propel them into the greatness they are designed to be. Our classroom is a catalyst for change."
21) "This is a together thing. Each of us is in this fight. We are here to bring a high-quality education to these students. It's all about the students. What are we doing for them?"
22) "When we change classrooms, we change community. We change the city. We change the county. We change the state. We change the nation. That's how we make the world a better place. What are you doing to ensure that this world is a better place for every student?"
