Why decades of trying to end racial segregation in gifted education haven’t worked
Although 3.3 million public school students have been identified for gifted education programs, inequity is the norm.
Over the past few months, I’ve spent a lot of time listening to music with my family. I wanted to share some of my favorites from the summer—including songs from some of the artists at this week’s @DemConvention. Hope you enjoy it.
Not many of us get to live to see our own legacy play out in such a meaningful, remarkable way. John Lewis did: medium.com/@BarackObama/m…
.@RepJohnLewis was a titan of the civil rights movement whose goodness, faith and bravery transformed our nation. Every day of his life was dedicated to bringing freedom and justice to all.
Some thoughts on the Reverend C.T. Vivian, a pioneer who pulled America closer to our founding ideals and a friend who I will miss greatly.
I couldn’t find the source of this, but I had to share it #becausemath and #blacklivesmatter
Today I’m tipping my hat to all the giants in the Negro Leagues, from Satchel Paige to Toni Stone and so many others. Their brave example, first set 100 years ago, changed America’s pastime for the better––opening it up for new generations of players and fans alike.

Now is not the time for neutrality, silence, or indifference. Let your voices be heard, make your presence known, and your stance clear. We ALL need to stand up to anti-Black racism & other forms of oppression. We are better when we collectively fight dehumanization of any group
Like so many of you, I’m pained by these recent tragedies. And I’m exhausted by a heartbreak that never seems to stop. Right now it’s George, Breonna, and Ahmaud. Before that it was Eric, Sandra, and Michael. It just goes on, and on, and on.
