rp @blackhistory: six-month-old future First Lady, Claudia Alta ‘Lady Bird’ Taylor with her nursemaid, Alice Tittle in Karnack, Texas, 1913.
•
As baby Claudia grew, Alice proclaimed the two-year-old “purty as a lady bird.” The nickname, which she at first despised, stuck with her ever since.

Photo repost @r29unbothered. How to stop asking your #blackfriends dumb sh** and do the work yourself. #Invest in your learning. Stop asking us to work for you for free. Our #ancestors already built this country for free.

rp @nowhitesaviors: Our struggles are particular, but we are not alone. We are not perfect, but we are stronger and wiser than the sum of our errors. Black people have been here before us and survived. We can read their lives like signposts on the road and find, as Bernice Reagon says so poignantly, that "each one of us is here because somebody before us did something to make it possible. To learn from their mistakes is not to lessen our debt to them, nor to the hard work of becoming ourselves, and effective”.

rp @eliana.chinea: You cannot do this work passively, or from a few posts or videos. You need to be doing this work with those of us who actually know how to unpack your racism, bias, and oppressive thinking. That means actually taking a training, and no not a two hour one that barely touches the surface. You need a full comprehensive training and you need to do them twice a year at a minimum. And no, a Diversity and Inclusion training is not the same as anti-racism.
.
Remember, stop hiring white folks to teach you anti racism, that’s perpetuating white supremacy. Hire BIPOC who actually do this work, not your nearest brown or black friend! Tag a brown or black friend who can help, tag your white friend who can use it! - #diversityandinclusion #nashvilleteacher #antiracism #highereducation #blackhistory #ally #teachershare #blackintheivory #whitefragility #changingthenarrative #ushistory #socialstudies #historyteacher #teacherproblems
rp @theconsciouskid: tweet by Sirry Alang that reads: “A reminder that you can be very nice to Black people and still be racist. And sometimes, your niceness is driven by racist ideas. Nice ≠ antiracist, kind ≠ antiracist. Diversity ≠ Antiracism.” - #diversityandinclusion #nashvilleteacher #antiracism #highereducation #blackhistory #ally #teachershare #blackintheivory #whitefragility #changingthenarrative #ushistory #socialstudies #historyteacher #teacherproblems
rp @uncolonia_history: Emancipation and self-emancipation came at different times in different places (especially considering it could either be imposed by the state/federal government OR forced by the enslaved themselves). However, once “freedom” was finally achieved, it was entirely unclear what that might mean after centuries of brutal oppression.

rp @britthawthorne: Understand the grassroots of organizing, boycotting, marching, protesting, non-violence, justice and systemic racism. Your peers, friends, family, students, should see that they can either be racist or anti-racist. #diversityandinclusion #nashvilleteacher #antiracism #highereducation #blackhistory #ally #teachershare #blackintheivory #whitefragility #changingthenarrative #ushistory #socialstudies #historyteacher #teacherproblems

rp @mvmnt4blklives: In this unprecedented time, the collective consciousness of the nation is rapidly shifting and has led our society to begin addressing both the historical atrocities and the contemporary harms Black and Indigenous peoples suffer because of ongoing subjugation and oppression. Let us remember that the prosperity and wealth of this nation was derived from the blood of slave labor on stolen land from indigenous people.

rp @changecadet: Anti-racism workshops, trainings, conversations, discussions, books, podcasts and articles ARE needed for people to understand their privilege and the power that comes with it to dismantle racism, oppression, and white supremacy. This current administration does not want to do the work but YOU can. Be uncomfortable. Do the work. Know that antiracism trainings really brings us together. Learn more about each other and ourselves. What's divisive about that.
Tag someone in the midst of their antiracism journey.

rp @wearepushblack: in 1963, 200,000 people swarmed the nation's capital for the March on Washington for jobs and freedom. The monumental event organized by civil rights activist we know and love like Dr.Martin Luther King Jr., Congressman John Lewis, and A. Philip Randolph helped ignite a national awakening around systemic racism and economic injustice.
At a time when our rights are still being threatened, Black unemployment rates are at an all-time high and organizing is more challenging than ever, it's important we honor and uplift this monumental display of Black unity and those that brought it to pass. In the late congressman's words, we must "GET IN to the revolution that is sweeping this nation.. Get in and stay in the streets of every city, every village of this nation .. until true freedom comes."

rp @teachfortheculture: In application of becoming anti-racist, in order to break the cycle and contribution to racism, white supremacy and more, you have to remove yourself. Don't associate with that cycle, create your own, partake in the cycle of demanding justice and becoming anti-racist.

rp @teachfortheculture: you cannot even TOUCH upon “anti-racist teaching”, if you, yourself, are not constantly engaged in your own deep and critical thinking and interrogative thought! — Most often racism THRIVES below the surface level, so if you are staying at the surface, you’re missing 95% of what’s really going on. — #diversityandinclusion #nashvilleteacher #antiracism #highereducation #blackhistory #ally #teachershare #blackintheivory #whitefragility #changingthenarrative #ushistory #socialstudies #historyteacher #teacherproblems
rp @blairimani: What we can no longer do is silence one another. When we exclaim BLACK LIVES MATTER we cannot allow retorts. We must make our system reflect that truth and built a new one around that truth. If it is between your own privilege and a better tomorrow and you’ve been waiting for an invitation:
THE TIME IS NOW.

rp @loveoffering: it’s choosing to show up for yourself,
when you don’t feel like it.
it’s seeking help when everything in you
is fighting the feeling.
it’s standing up for others even if those you love look down on you for doing so.
it’s saying no. being firm with your no.
and honoring your boundaries, unapologetically.
it’s surrounding yourself with a support system that is pushing you to grow, beyond comfort.
this is the year of empowerment.
we are growing into ourselves.
we are entering a space of resilience
while being refined.
so keep healing.
keep fighting.
keep growing.
it’s only forward from here. - #diversityandinclusion #nashvilleteacher #antiracism #highereducation #blackhistory #ally #teachershare #blackintheivory #whitefragility #changingthenarrative #ushistory #socialstudies #historyteacher #teacherproblems
rp @moemotivate: Have you ever spilled food on a shirt?
I do pretty much everyday.
But I never do it on purpose.
I never plan to do it either.
But it still happens & I still end up w/ stains that sometimes won’t come out.
And while racism isn’t something that can be washed away w/ a good detergent, but it’s helpful to use analogies to simplify complex or abstract concepts.

rp @wearepushblack: Thurgood Marshall! Most notably known for founding the NAACP’s Legal Defense and Educational Fund in 1940 - Marshall served as the NAACP’s Chief Counsel, winning a series of court decisions that gradually destroyed the legal underpinnings of Jim Crow segregation.
And in 1967, Marshall was appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court, declaring that it was “the right thing to do, the right time to do it, the right man and the right place.” becoming the Supreme Court’s 96th justice and first Black justice. Any Black judges or lawyers? Attorneys?
