I spy with my little eye something familiar in this picture- front and center! I love seeing my book, Support and Retain Educators of Color, used in the context of pushing forward institutional change. I wrote this book not as a cute intellectual exercise but a how-to guide for education and organizational leaders to cultivate workplaces that affirm and retain educators of color. This Friday, I will be presenting insights from my book surrounding affinity group implementation at Center for Black Educator Development Black Men in Education Convening. See you there? #education #equity #BlackMenInEducationConvening #BMEC2024 #Blackteachersmatter

Corporate College recently had the incredible opportunity to host executive leaders from 100 Black Men of America, Inc. for their executive leadership retreat. I had the privilege of leading a session titled "Education's Post-Pandemic Evolution: What We Provide Matters," and later joined Herman Bulls, vice chairman and international director at JLL, to discuss "Organizational Leadership, Governance, and Impact." Educational leaders, how do you see the role of education evolving in the post-pandemic world??

This is how you do it

Love this picture, because it reminds me of the time Manuel Guerra and Ryan West of Chemeketa Community College breached their Fiduciary Duty by telling me to file suit or complaints with the very parties they’ve close to, such as this one, and the Office for Civil Rights, Department of Education, while providing no avenue to dispute resolution and implying I couldn’t represent myself otherwise, in their investigation which deviated from internal policy. Specifically, Ryan West, Manuel Guerra, and Keith Russell failed to provide a 3rd party independent investigation into my Discrimination and Harassment. If they write their own rules, while justifying the perfect defense against bad behavior, shouldn’t you be aware this was against #504 #IEP #IdeaLaws #ADA #Laws? Clearly the college doesn’t care about human life when the tactics used to silence my claims are the same tactics used to retain a sexual predator only 4 months later. Seemingly, the easier solution is to hire people with fake credentials, duping the college in the very thing they’ve made me certified. This while weaponizing their connection with police training to threaten police violence for my advocacy. I’m further amused some administrators are blocking me. For those who have elected themselves to be responsible educators, it seems either seeing or dealing with the truth of what you’ve done to your students is simply too much of a burden to bear on behalf of the very specific people who did this to me, to my face, without remorse and full awareness of the evil they were doing. Face accountability, stop running and hiding, it’s the worst possible response from an academic institution such as Chemeketa Community College and the CHEMEKETA CLASSIFIED ASSOCIATION who are associated by default. Sincerely, NonAdjective

If every Community College grad would just proudly post their CC alma-mater (along with their subsequent transfer institution, of course) it would be Transformative. One reason more people don't know of and celebrate the transformative power of Community Colleges in America -- hence the silly and often racialized stigma -- is that so many transfer students immediately delete their community college history on LinkedIn as soon as they "get in." As if attending a CC wasn't instrumental, pivotal, and transformative in achieving their dream school transfer. Which, paradoxically, only further reinforces the silly stigma they're apparently afraid of. Got stereotype threat? Gentle reminders: recently retired UCLA Chancellor Block was once a transfer student from Foothill College. And now it's on his LinkedIn. Apple founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak both dropped out of elite colleges/universities after just one year because it wasn't worth the money. That's why they attended De Anza College. Which had fantastic computer access and CS classes. And yep, that's why Apple is still headquartered in Cupertino. Ditto Hollywood: Tom Hanks? Arnold Swarzenegger? Both are proud champions of their CC alma maters. And the list goes on and on. And on. So why not join them?

The Role of Eton's Legacy in Resolving Royal Feuds At Eton College, where the ethos of brotherhood and lifelong bonds are instilled from the very beginning, the ongoing feud between two royal alumni starkly contrasts with the values taught within these historic walls. Eton has always been more than a school; it is a cradle of leadership and camaraderie, preparing its students to uphold a legacy of unity and mutual respect, traits expected of its distinguished graduates. The reason generations of families have entrusted Eton with the education of their sons is not solely for academic rigor but for the deeper lessons in integrity and unity. The school's foundational principles, encapsulated in the "old school tie," emphasize solidarity and discretion, urging its community to support each other unconditionally and to live up to the examples set by the great men who came before them. As two of Eton’s most notable alumni find themselves at odds, it is crucial to remember the speeches and teachings that marked their formative years. These teachings encourage resolution and understanding, not conflict. It falls upon their fellow Etonians, who share the same formative education and values, to remind them of their common ground and shared responsibilities. In times of discord, the true strength of the Etonian bond must come to the forefront. The community is uniquely positioned to mediate, guided by the very principles imparted to them at school. For if there is any group that can bridge this divide, it is those who were schooled in the same traditions and are bound by the same lifelong codes. The spirit of Eton calls for unity and reconciliation. It is imperative for all involved to reflect on the heritage that shaped them and to act in a manner that upholds the honor and history of their esteemed alma mater. History is indeed watching, and it is through these moments of trial that the true values of Eton can shine through. #EtonCollege #RoyalReconciliation #OldSchoolTie #EtonianValues #Unity #Heritage #Leadership
