Learning and leading!

We’re only days away from the 2023 EdLoC National Convening in Las Vegas on March 22-24! We can’t wait to be in community with you. RT this if you’ll be joining us! #edloc2023 #weareedloc

@MsPackyetti I legit have this in Chicago! Trained under one of the best to ever do it, Evvy has all the skills and I get marcel feathered on the regular and pay after I'm whipped! On time whether my standing Tues @ 7 am or before flights @ 4:30am. Love me some her and so does my hair!

@martindac @TeachForAmerica @TFACollective @Monica4LA @doctorchau It was such an honor @martindac So glad it was inspiring!

@DFGrille Santa Monica, These young people deserve to be valued & treated as if their experience matters. When you get it wrong, like having a roach crawling up their banquet, you don’t make excuses. You do more, you do better. #DontBlameUnhoused the students said #DontEatEatEat

@DFGrille Appalled-after catching a roach at Santa Monica Pier location to keep it out of our bag, the manager could only see fit to take a very few dollars off the bill. BIPOC students came to celebrate a win-instead another experience like this #notit #grossgrillle

@violadavis Queen Vi, Madam Vi, Sista Vi, with tears in my eyes, my whole spirit thanks you for your life, your contribution, and this book! #findingmetoo

@Delta I believe in extending grace but your multiple errors extended our trip by 6+hours into an extra leg, extra city, worse seats than I confirmed & a response of “oh well you’ll get there” increased exposure, anxiety & distrust & decreased any sense you cared abt your impact

This is on repeat in my house. Watch to bring joy. Please share.

@SanfordLJohnson @notreallyjcm @SanfordLJohnson my family...(born in the Delta & not) have never understood. I’m not and will never be down with okra! I’m too far south to be counted officially but know it can’t go on my plate in any form & I’m gonna be real mad if it’s in the black eyed peas!

@notreallyjcm Surely I’m not the only person in the Mississippi Delta who hates okra.

What's a food that's part of your region and/or culture that you do not care for? I'm a southerner and I hate boiled peanuts

May we pay tribute to your life by mustering a fraction of your courage to continue this fight. Rest well, dear brother. We are indebted to you. #JohnLewis #hero

"I stood up and I said to myself, 'This is it.'" John Lewis’ March on Washington speech inspired a generation. Here’s how he recalled its impact to TIME ti.me/30rhA5a

@MsPackyetti @MsPackyetti Your grace, your wisdom, your love and your power reverberate through the universe gathering the energy of our ancestors to further strengthen the stalks that your buried seed grew into. Love you Sis!

Happy Happy Mother’s Day to every Grandma, Mama, Auntie, God Mom, Play Mom, Non Binary Parent & those who love and support kids! Today can be tough for those who have lost loved ones or lost babies, sending so much love joy, peace, and perfect memories made and remembered!

On this #NationalDoctorsDay, I want to share this powerful video from Dr. Francois and Dr. Robinson and thank all of the incredible doctors, nurses, technicians, residents, fellows, and hospital staff who are putting their lives on the line to save ours.

Whoa. Lord please watch over the people of Jonesboro. 🙏🏿

I’m thankful our elected officials are supporting the education community and young leaders in this unprecedented moment. We must come together to support our most vulnerable, now and always. @AmeriCorps @edfunding

Some of the best leadership in this country right now is coming from school districts staff and Superintendents. They are putting the health & wellbeing of students first. Making sure kids eat. Also caring for staff by making sure everyone is paid. Thank you. #LeadershipMatters
