It felt amazing to share space with like minded educators who want to transform the educational system one classroom or school at a time by disrupting the very system that was created for our Black youth’s demise.

Yes 🙌🏽 !!!! I am beyond excited for this next conference! You guys CERTAINLY know how to do it right!
