Love this metaphor from @JabuMind — Picture your negative thoughts as squares on a Zoom call. Time to Mute All and disable the chat! 😂

So often we hear, “I didn’t know what to say” when we encounter hate, racism, & bias. I love that you’ve given your school community language to interrupt & speak up in these moments. 🙌🏾@SUABULLDOGS #OneDegreeShift #SpeakUp

TODAY'S SF WEATHER: Creepy with a thick coating of dark orange smog.


Give your students what they need, not everything you think you should give them. This is all new and we need more time to plan, so find ways to save time in other areas (like grading). We can do this, just not the same ways we’ve always done it.

A good reminder that none of these “days off” are privileges, but rights that people fought for. We’ve always needed to protest for the basics we take for granted now. People took to the streets for the weekends and time limits that bosses are slowly eroding. Fight for rest.

I’m sticking with the unions. We can quibble about the elements of our specific unions we don’t like, but for those of us in unions, there is no other body that fully represents meaningful pushback to higher admin, policy makers, and other entities like the union. We out here.
