We must teach like our lives depend on it...

As always, I ask you to take the time to DO. If you're on Facebook, you're already using minutes towards something else... this took at most, 15 minutes to read. Another one of those, it's just worth it so do it.

Also, this is written towards educators but in this time of a pandemic, we have all become educators in one way or another. Pandemic or not, we are all educators of the class called "life." So, "We must commit to teaching in a way that totally disrupts and dismantles the system of oppression we have been operating within for over 400 years."

"We must teach like our lives depend on it, because for some of us, it does!" (Wing, 2020)
