Your authenticity is one of your superpowers. Don’t trade it in to be accepted. Your truthfulness is necessary.

Worth sharing again since it's W.E.B. Du Bois' birthday. "Colonialism in our era has passed from political domination of many lands to an economic control which is still colonial imperialism."

Agricultural sciences have for too long ignored traditional and local knowledge about crop plants and how best to grow them. That must change if the world is to ensure future food security. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Education funding in this country is a twin sheet trying to cover a king sized bed. Too many "reform" ideas are arguments about how, if we cut the sheet the right way and move the pieces around, we can cover the bed adequately.

Education ≠ Consuming Eurocentric knowledge and obediently following colonial instructions.

European colonialism is apparently over yet France receives a "colonial tax" from 14 former colonies in Africa to then loan them back their own money with high interests so they can give gov't contracts to French companies. If this isn't neo-colonialism, then what do we call it?

Question to Ed leaders: what have we done to make connections and establish communication channels with families at the start of the year? We often complain about lack of family engagement when we ouselves have done little to encourage it.

Don’t let anyone tell you education is a privilege. It’s a human right in many places. Here, it has turned into lifelong debt shackle. How do you “forgive” a human right?

We need to think of each other as sisters and brothers, and to be concerned with each other’s welfare. We must seek to lessen the suffering of others. Rather than working to acquire wealth, we need to do something meaningful, directed toward the welfare of humanity as a whole.

Growth-mindset interventions have not led to improved academic outcomes for students. It’s not because the premise of the growth mindset is wrong. It’s the implementation of the growth mindset that falls short. @How2Navigate @drBelleLiang @GreaterGoodSC greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/h…
