Fantastic to see the Repair Journals in action! A tool in “The Cultivating a Repair Mindset Toolkit”, developed for K-12, but apparently great for grandparents as well! https://t.co/F7O2MnaJDv

Thank you to @CultureOfRepair for creating the Repair Journal to help us all develop a more focussed repair mindset. The journals were easily embraced by the children before the actual mending tasks began. Check out menditaussie's video! #TikTok

The Repair Journal caught the interest of some friends on social media. I, Karen have been asked to present to an adult craft group in August about the process of using the Repair Mindset Toolkit. I am assuming that some members of this group are grandparents. #KnowledgeIsPower

A devastating misunderstanding is that the education system is fundamentally just & only needs tweaking. We can't tweak our way to antiracism. If we're serious about racial equity, we understand the system is fundamentally unjust and scale our responses accordingly.
