I had the pleasure of presenting for the first time at the International Autobiography Association - Chapter of the Americas 2025 in Cape May, NJ.

I presented a Palestinian Autoethnography comparing my experiences to the experiences of an unnamed narrator in Sayed Kashua’s Let It Be Morning.

Meeting @malakyonis.bsky.social at #NCTE24 was such a crucial moment in year 10! It because so clear to me that mentoring new teachers and making this work sustainable is work I need to lean into!
In year 10, I poured my soul into my classroom, into my practice, into my colleagues, and into my students. I left it all on the field. I gave everything I had and a little bit more. I was bold AF, I dreamed big, and I took risks. Some of them flopped, but some of them paid off in the biggest way.

I am always inspired when I am in the presence of Dr. J 🤎✊🏾 She carries the heavy burden of being a revolutionary with such strength & grace.
I long to be like her every day. Hugs and love, Sawsan.

Saw my fav author again, this time at #NCTE2024 Fun fact: During my first MS teaching interview, when they asked which book would I teach and why, I responded with _Attack of the Black Rectangles_ by A.S King! Because it centers student voice & advocates for anti-censorship! ❣️ @as-king.bsky.social

Hi #NCTE24

If you’re a beautiful young teacher I spoke to last night and you told me ‘names matter,’

I need to find you and follow you and tell you that you made my entire life. Thank you! Please be here!

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.

Petition to make "Hi, what are you reading?" the conventional greeting.

"How are you doing?" hasn't been appropriate for some time now. Deprecated.
