Congrats @walker_at! This is so well deserved. That you are using YOUR moment to lift all of us is a testament to your leadership. I am grateful for you, my friend, and singing a song joyful enough for our ancestors to hear & powerful enough for our children to remember.
And we're not alone in this. My friends @CarmitaSemaan and @Surge_Institute or @abernadotte and @beyond12 or @AmanFernan24 and @Latinos4Ed or @BossierS and @EdLoCnational are held up as examples of excellence, but turning reputation into (enough) revenue was another matter. /5
