A student who never misses a deadline. Strong GPA. She’s “fine” by every metric. She’s not fine, and neither is her teacher. My latest is about what trauma does to growth, and the grief so many of us carry into the classroom while holding space for everyone else’s.

This one is personal. Part 1 up now. As always, thanks for your support!

What Trauma Does to Growth (Part 1) Part of the Cultural Trust Series

There are many folks who are smart, but we folks are built different. We have to navigate so many intersectional lanes to thrive and survive the city.

As we grow older it becomes normal for us to be in spaces where we’re not normally seen. Kudos to Lupe Fiasco for kicking and pushing down doors, barriers and biases.
