This is typical. We see this time and again: institutions closing ranks to protect powerful men accused of sexual harassment or sexual assault. This is how and why toxic cultures thrive. Infinite solidarity with Jenni Hermoso and the Spanish Team. We saw what happened.

The Spanish football federation announces that, instead of removing president Luis Rubiales, they will take legal action against player Jenni Hermoso as they claim she ‘lied’ about non-consensual kiss. The federation also says players have an “obligation” to play for the national team after 81 female players said they would not play until Rubiales was removed, in solidarity with Jenni Hermoso.

A terrible day for our nation- America is going backwards. Reversing decades of progress that has made us better, stronger and more inclusive hurts all of us. The Supreme Court isn’t just losing credibility due to all the recent scandals, it is also losing moral authority.

The Senate confirmed Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court in a 53-47 vote. It’s a historic moment. Jackson is not only the first Black woman to serve on the Court, but also the first justice since Thurgood Marshall with significant experience as a public defender.

Does anyone have ideas about what social emotional learning ought to look like for high school students -- some things to avoid, as well as to do? There is much less written about this than at the early grades.

“Citizens don’t inherit just the glory of their nation, but its wrongs too. A truly great country does not ignore or excuse its sins. It confronts them and then works to make them right.” ⁦@nhannahjones⁩ with some required reading nytimes.com/interactive/20…

As another wave of white folks decide *now* things have gone too far, *now* I need to get involved, I thought I'd share what @4noura and I learned when we studied how attitudes & behaviors of white activists can cause burnout in antiracist activists of color. (1/thread)

You’re going to hear a lot of “free college” proposals from candidates. We did some research and want them to truly work for students of color and those from low-income backgrounds. 👇🏽 #DemDebate
