@bottomshelfbks @AuthorVillage Thank you for sharing this! This is what happens to me when I make screencasts for my students!

THE STRUGGLE IS REAL, aka it still takes me a thousand takes to make one 30 second video 😬@AuthorVillage

@michelerdecker @creativalliance Beautiful photo! We walked out of the park near these folks. They were from a MI/CA class!

#Baltimore, your creative energy and sparkle feed my soul! #LanternParade ⁦@creativalliance⁩

@pernilleripp My friend Sarah Berger makes fun, funky, and also custom earrings here in Baltimore. I own two pair...so far! etsy.com/shop/OrangeSci…

Rest in Peace @SpeakerBusch. You served with dignity and respect for all even those who you did not agree with. I will never forget you telling me "keep up the good work young man and take care of Herring Run Park." Maryland will be forever grateful for your service. Thank you.

@SaraBareilles @nbcsnl I see you, @sarahjarosz and @odonovanaoife backing @SaraBareilles on @nbcsnl!!! What beautiful music you all make individually and together.

It’s allllll happening!! @nbcsnl eek! instagram.com/p/Bv7rPqaANIU/…

Good morning! Today is a new day! I’m still mad about yesterday!

This is morally reprehensible. Trump is quietly moving $260M from cancer research, HIV/AIDS and other programs to cover the rising costs of his child detention policy, which has hit record levels.

Gorgeous reviews of 3 soon to be classics, by @JackieWoodson @Meg_Medina and Kate DiCamillo -- New Novels From Three of Today’s Most Beloved Children’s Authors nyti.ms/2Nu7NaP

@gwen17 That’s a framer!

After sending the letter to my daughter's teacher, he replied graciously, confessed he assigned writers he knew, did some research and changed his reading list. My love for teachers grows stronger (if this is even possible!) daily.

@christhile @livefromhereapm Oh wait. I stand by my first tweet, but I gotta give some hometown love to the possibility of @charmcityjct on @livefromhereapm !

Wow, y’all, thank you. I can’t even begin to express how helpful this is. Next up, who are some artists you’d like to hear this season on @livefromhereapm?

@christhile @livefromhereapm Thanks for asking, but I only know what I know. I listen to your show to learn and be surprised. (GMoreno, I’mWithHer) Y’all do amazing work. Please keep doing a great job featuring artists of many disparate backgrounds. That is the most important thing. Love you all. Thank you.

Dear Mr____... I was concerned by the lack of women... First step - Address Teacher Directly. Second Step - School Leader(s) Third Step - Suggest rewrites to curriculum. Forth Step -(If third is met with resistance). Address DOE and hit social media HARD. --

Dear Mr. _____I hope the school year is starting out well. I was concerned by the lack of women on your 11th Grade English Reading List. Can you help me understand your choices? Thanks so much. - Jacqueline (Toshi’s Mom)

Thank you to @ElloEllenOh for visiting with our Middle Schoolers today to discuss writing, activism, and the importance of diversity of voices in children's literature.
