The Little Things That Make It All Worthwhile
An old student of mine left this on my Facebook page yesterday:
“Remember that junior in high school who wrote a paper about the Seneca Falls Convention for History Day? Well, she is now a sophomore in college, and is actually going to that same place she wrote a paper on in 2008. YUP! Tomorrow I will be at the place where women suffrage began =) (I hope I don’t cry)”
This is What #EDUSolidarity Looks Like – The Full List
Watching EDUSolidarity take place on Tuesday was one of the most empowering and inspirational days of my life. It was amazing to see so many educators around the country (and even two internationally) stand up together to support our brothers and sisters whose unions are under attack. What started as an idea in the shower as a response to an old question, quickly ballooned to involve over 100 different bloggers sharing their thoughts and experiences. There is an incredibly wide variety of viewpoints here, and I would encourage people to read as many as they can. Moreover, I would encourage people to take the time to leave comments on those you read. I will be doing so in the coming days, as well as posting more in response to things I read.
It must be noted, that as this was an open tag, not all of the post reflect the views of myself or the other co-sponsors of this. Every post that was submitted has been included in the list.
The cosponsors are listed first, followed by the rest in alphabetical order by blog name. Click on the person’s name to read their EDUSolidarity post; Twitter handles, for those who shared, follow after locations.
