If you're doing social justice work and anti-racist work and everyone like you, you're not doing it.... What abolition says is we're not just reforming oppression, we're eliminating it, and we're building something else. - @BLoveSoulPower @DPLeague #DPLIS

"Everyone is talking about diversity and equity, but there is no caring and compassion... Carceral logic is about punishment rather than compassion... Race is tied to criminality in America." Powerful message from @BLoveSoulPower @DPLeague #DPLIS

We admit that there's racism but we don't know anybody that's racist....If you want to be anti-racist, you have to give something up. @BLoveSoulPower @DPLeague #DPLIS

We are up against racism, anti-Blackness, and spirit-murdering. The three work in tandem. -@BLoveSoulPower @DPLeague #DPLIS

Think of the authors or doctors or lawyers we will never know because we refuse to teacher Black children to their highest potential....You could have the cure for cancer if you'd educated Black and Brown children to their highest potential. - @BLoveSoulPower #DPLIS @DPLeague

“It is not a time to retreat. It is a time to double down on justice… If not now, then when? What else do we need to see? It’s not that we don’t know what to do. It’s about the fortitude to do it.” - @BLoveSoulPower at @DPLeague #DPLIS

Why focus on teachers of color? @k12kimsmith shares statistics with far-reaching consequences for education: 54% of the student population is of-color, while only 18% of teachers are of-color. Only 2% of teachers are African-American men. #TOCShowcase

Research demonstrates the power and impact that even one teacher of color can have on a student of color (and all students). Published this year, our literature review details factors impeding recruitment and retention of teachers of color. #TOCShowcase bit.ly/3bgJVj0
