@tongueunbroken I am not good at promoting these things, but I am happy they are out there. They are the product of so much collaboration and conversations with amazing people, some of whom are still here and some of whom have walked on.

This failure is not on the part of the student or those who are excluded, but on the systemic structures that demand assimilation to achieve success.

Stop what youʼre doing and watch this with intent. Then think about systemic change. A budget crisis creates opportunity to roll back to places of white success and Indigenous failure. https://t.co/pO0Un1CKif
