A wonderful full-circle moment: I ran into @soortle at a coffee shop during #AERA24, and she came to my presentation. Her education classes at @Wellesley are the reason I am here.

Thanks to @AvashiaNeema for sharing her courageous and light-filled story with my @Wellesley students yesterday. We left with heats full and so much to ponder. Her book-Another Appalachia- is a treasure.

I think my students are going to remember this conversation for a long time…
Neema Avashia@AvashiaNeema
Today I got to talk about Another Appalachia with amazing @Wellesley students. I was so moved by their careful reading, their deep questions, and the way in which they kept saying, “I saw myself in here.” Mirrors, y’all. Don’t discount them.

@cat_holubward Ahhh…I love summer reading as back to school prep! Glad you enjoyed it.

What an honor to support you in this way. Your work is discerning while gracious, elegant in its storytelling while relentless in its truth-telling. Congratulations Dr. Bruhn! I can’t wait to see what you do next @SarahBruhn3!

My committee, @RGGonzales1 @soortle and Sara Lawrence-Lightfoot, helped me find my voice, trusted my decisions, and stood by me through the wild journey of pandemic parenting/dissertating. Thank you for being such an incredible team. These generous words mean so much.

@johndiamondphd Congrats John! Annenberg and Brown are lucky to have you.

@SarahBruhn3 @RGGonzales1 Congrats Sarah!! Can’t wait to read it—as dissertation and book!

I just submitted a full draft of my dissertation.Telling my participants that I'm going to bring them a book someday motivates me more than anything.
My amazing committee, Sara Lawrence-Lightfoot, @RGGonzales1 and @soortle, will have lots to say. But I'm celebrating this step!

@ekuwah @WithEqualStep @Larryferlazzo @prof_ishimaru Thanks @ekuwah ! @prof_ishimaru is a great person to be in company with and #justschools is a wonderful book!
English
@WithEqualStep @Larryferlazzo @prof_ishimaru I second what @WithEqualStep stated about #JustSchools by @prof_ishimaru . I would add #NaturalAlliesBook by @soortle to your list. These books complement each other, and provide steps to systemic change (in partnering with families) at the district, school, and classroom level.
