This would be the result in schools in Canada too. It is embedded & unexamined anti-Black racism in education and society. That is why antiracist, decolonizing education is necessary for teachers and school leaders.

We lost a real one. My brother Jay Williams put his insides on the line every single time he showed up to work. He was special and we were all better because of him. Toronto District School Board we need to honour his legacy.

Happy Toni Morrison Day—may she whisper a sweet message in your ear today. 🙌🏾 Princeton University

Happy birthday, Audre Lorde and Toni Morrison. We have been made different by you and by your words. There is no debt we can ever repay for the labor you gave. All we can do is breathe and be fuller versions of ourselves in honor of the work you shared.

Rest in eternal power.

Listening to someone drone on and on about how rich they are on a record doesn’t hit the same during a cost of living crisis

Let’s hold her accountable & respectfully disagree with her. Audre Lorde said, “It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.” I would add deliberate & resolve to the list because differences are challenging.

Let’s not allow anyone to disrespectfully use her last name in slogans & headlines. “Stop Chow Now” made me cringe every single time I heard it. It’s low key, basic as hell, anti-Asian discrimination. Put some respect on her beautiful Chinese name.

Let’s celebrate her being the first racialized woman mayor but never exclude her credentials. Her story and values are likely largely informed by her identity, but make no mistake, her win was a result of intellect, hard work & the ability to imagine the almost unimaginable.

Diasporan Àṣàkẹ́ stan B🖤 Neither did they ask for ielts

They didn't ask the firefighters for Canadian experience?

May 5th, National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous women, Girls and 2 Spirit people. Let’s remember and honour by wearing Red Downsview Secondary S. Elwin Michelle_Forde Navjot Jandu (she/her)
