Hey DC wonks, come join us for a groundbreaking event on public policy to support boys in K-12 education. June 2nd, 3pm, USC Capital Center. Or watch online! aibm.org/events/the-sta…

Honored to be 2026 MenCare Changemaker! 🌍 The MenCare Changemaker Journey is a global initiative to mobilize influencers from business, media, culture, civil society, and government to find solutions to challenges affecting boys & men. @equimundo_org @aibm_org @male_educators

The College Council of @male_educators inspires me While only 23% of educators are men, the young men actually studying to be educators are full of ideas for growing the profession! If you know a college interested in starting a MEN chapter, contact us maleeducators.org

Always good to connect with fmr Mayor @adrianfenty The @male_educators movement includes leaders like Mayor Fenty who sacrificed their political future to pass bold education policy! DC Schools are the best in the country because of men like him Go to maleeducators.org

“Our goal to grow the number of male educators in America is bold and ambitious, but this is what our systems and our students require of us.” — @RichardvReeves (@aibm_org) Thank you to the bipartisan group of leaders who joined us for a Salon Dinner to launch the Male Educator Network & Policy Institute and help build support for the work ahead. Join us: maleeducators.org

Men make up just 3% of pre-K teachers and 20% of teachers in grades 1-8. We’re working to move those numbers. Grateful to @educationweek, and @SarahDSparks, for featuring our founder, @curtiseveryday, and our mission to recruit and support male educators nationwide. 🍎 edweek.org/leadership/a-n… @RealMenTeach2

Read what Richard Reeves has to say about gap in male teachers. We’re here to change that - follow us at maleeducators.org

When was the first time you had a male teacher? For most of us, it wasn't until middle school and that’s because men make up just 1 in 10 elementary teachers. I wrote more about this trend in my latest substack: ofboysandmen.substack.com/p/men-teach-too

Had a wonderful time sitting down with @nayeema on her podcast, Smart Girl Dumb Questions. We covered what the gender gap really is now, if there really is a dating and mating crisis (and why I don’t like the word crisis), & so much more.
