My Co-Chair, the amazing Rita Sakr and I are very proud to be involved with this crucial university initiative. Now more than ever we need to continue our commitment to making MU a safe and inclusive space for those seeking international protection.

Thanks so much to @MuSanctuary Alum Kinda Nassli for her uplifting and stirring input with Y3 students this morning. Her narratives about the complexity of migrant/refugee identities has given us much food for thought about how to approach these issues in our primary classrooms
