I love that @Mahea818 begins by acknowledging Dr. Etta Hollins & her work. She then moves to talk about the importance of transparency, looking at who we are as a field & as individual programs. What is our program identity & how does it inform our work? #antiracistteachered
@Mahea818 As programs, we have to start by declaring who we are & then embodying those principles within our programs, considering the contexts in which we work & communities we serve #antiracistteachered
@Mahea818 We must publicly & unapologetically stand in #antiracistteachered as faculty before we begin looking at transforming teacher education programs. We must engage in the work alongside one another if we are to design anti-racist programs for teacher candidates.
@Mahea818 We can't do important work with our students (teacher candidates) until we do important work with ourselves as programs. We must look inward before we look outward #antiracistteachered 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Update: I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a message from my sister. As expected, it’s been absolutely brutal. They shot into her house. And are in her street. The military is shooting randomly at any sign of life, trying to scare people into the streets 1/
In the streets, they will be arrested, shot or killed. My sister said someone in her neighborhood was killed and two of her friends were arrested. She is still safe but they are lying on the floor to avoid being seen because the military is still outside in the street. 😢 2/
As of a couple of hours ago over 150 have died just today. I’m sure it’s more now. Please continue to pray for her and her mom, the people and the country as they undergo this terrible violence and humanitarian crisis. 3/

Let me tell you, I am declaring being done w/ the shame spiral & apologizing for my #AsianAmerican identity. There's a lot of work to do as a community, but we can't do that work, if we can't acknowledge that shame is part of white supremacy that keeps us in our place (thread) 1/
First, I want to shout out Black feminist & linguistic scholars, including the fantastic @BlackGazePod convo w/ Dr. @aprilbakerbell. @DrPorcher & @dr_s_bertrand, your unapologetic stance that Blackness will save Black people reminds me to stand in my own truth 2/
Okay, and also shout out to the fantastic essay by @poetpedagogue that reminds me that we cannot abolish systems that promise us opportunity if we play by the rules until we conquer our own internalized oppressive mindset 3/

I am finally watching/listening to this week's @BlackGazePod conversation w/ Dr. @aprilbakerbell. From the intro, the idea of internalizing linguistic oppression. Whew! Thank you, @DrPorcher & @dr_s_bertrand for this!
Also, I see you @DrPorcher & @dr_s_bertrand. Knowing you, I could hear in your voices how hard it was to be present in this space with #BreonnaTaylor on your hearts & minds. Thank you for standing for #Blacklinguisticjustice in the midst of it all ❤️

Ironically, my TEDx talk on humanizing pedagogies comes out on a day when I had a real human moment. Sometimes we let our frustrations get the best of us & make assumptions about people that we need to keep to ourselves, but let slip out. 1/
In those most human of moments, when we are not at our best, we need to take responsibility for our words and actions, then show grace to ourselves. Grace doesn't make the words go away or excuse the impact, but continuing to stew doesn't help either. 2/
I know that I am very human, even as I conquer my inner desire for perfection. My wise dean @DrK_WhiteSmith reminded me today that we all stumble & sometimes, it takes a minute to recover, but we will not fall, because we have community to lift us up. 3/

Y'all do not understand how much I missed @BlackGazePod! 1/3 of the way through Episode 1 of Season 2 -- Protect Black Womxn. @dr_s_bertrand & @DrPorcher bringing it again! Also, shout out to @MauricePorcher for the sound effects. The claps though 👏👏👏 1/
Also, got me wondering, has @DrPorcher given me a nickname? Do I need to rethink our relationship? 🤔 @BlackGazePod #BlackGazePodcast 2/
This episode is just so powerful. Centering Black womxn means accepting & affirming ALL that they are: the brilliance, power & drive, but also the softness & humanity #ProtectBlackwomxn #BlackGazePodcast @BlackGazePod 3/

I didn't want to distract from Scholar Strike the last two days, so I didn't post the #blogpost I wrote yesterday, but it actually works out because I blogged today too & they are pretty nice companion pieces. Sharing them here with you 1/
"I believe in myself. I believe in the healing power of reflection and writing. I am learning, whose voices to listen to, when to listen and how to listen. I am learning how to make space for pain I don’t think I deserve. I am learning & growing & it is beautiful but painful." 2/
