In the wake of the tragedy in #ColoradoSprings, CDCE condemns all hate crimes, and grieves and stands in solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community. We strive to teach and urge educators to include diverse narratives, and take actions to build an inclusive and just society.

We got invited again by @nyuniversity Project Developing Chinese Language Teachers (DCLT) to offer an online workshop on "Fostering an Inclusive Chinese Language Classroom" with curriculum sharing and breakout room facilitating. 在“和而不同”的中文课堂里，见自己、见天地、见众生。

It's the 2nd year working with @Middlebury Chinese Graduate Program and offering DEI training for their faculty and students. We discussed inclusive curriculum and what being a Chinese means in this critical time. Contact us if you'd like a similar workshop at your institution!

BREAKING: President Biden signed an executive order to fight anti-LGBTQ legislation. From combatting so-called “conversion therapy” to protecting LGBTQ+ youth in schools, we’re proud to see @POTUS taking action. More from Executive Director, @themelster: glsen.org/news/glsen-lgb…

Asian Americans are the fastest-growing racial group in the U.S., yet account for just 2% of teachers. And today's teachers aren't getting much education to make up for that mismatch. usatoday.com/story/news/edu…

On the anniversary of the horrific Atlanta shootings that saw 8 people murdered (6 of them Asian women), Asian Americans are still being targeted on the streets. Hear our stories and stand with us, now and always. eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nat…

Please join us on Sunday 4/3/22 at 8 pm EST for a special Swap Shop and Happy Hour. Share your ideas about the celebration of A&P American Heritage Month with other participants and bring your own drink to enjoy a great time with other educators. Register & spread the words!

In light of recent senseless murders of Michelle Go and Christina Yuna Lee, @CDCE1955 would like to remind schools to continue to create spaces for the AAPI students and staff to mourn and to process these tragic events as well as to uplift their voices and experiences.

My guest this week, @VickyAndiWang, is helping #Chinese educators have courageous dialogues about #microaggressions and anti-Asian sentiment that have increased in recent years. @CDCE1955 #wlclassroompodcast wlclassroom.com/category/podca…

@ProfOssia Same—influences so much of what I do (and so many colleagues are like “what you do is so innovative” to which I respond aloud or in my head “literally every K-12 teacher does this stuff….”

Happy #LunarNewYear from our founding members! May you find courage, vitality and togetherness in the 2022 #YearOfTheTiger

Happy #LunarNewYear! I spent the day @DurhamAcademy with @DA_BonnieWang who teaches Chinese Language and Culture. Many of her students are of Asian Heritage. At 5:30, she talks how mainstream culture marginalizes their identities and why she empowers them to be their true selves.
