It’s our responsibility as educators to continue advocating for a curriculum that reflects the rich diversity of our world and honors the historical and cultural contributions of Black artists.

Discussing historical and cultural contexts is essential for understanding the roots of several musical forms. The impact of systemic oppression on the Black experience is woven into the very fabric of many genres, and to omit that history would be to neglect an essential aspect of their meaning.

In states like Florida, policies such as the Stop WOKE Act present significant challenges to educators seeking to teach a comprehensive, culturally relevant curriculum. Censorship policies restrict the ability for educators to engage in discussions about race, identity, & historical events.

In the field of music education, culturally responsive teaching plays a necessary role in fostering an inclusive and equitable learning environment. Through CRT, we ensure that students of all backgrounds can see their identities and experiences reflected in the materials they engage with.

As we observe Black History Month, it’s crucial to reflect on the ways in which we teach & honor the diverse cultural legacies that have shaped our society. Black History is American History, & it’s important that we acknowledge how Black contributions have influenced the facets of American culture.

I wonder what the rest of the world is saying about us now. Berlin newspaper.

The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.

Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.

We must stop him.

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

I’m proud to call the amazing cartoonist Ed Wexler a friend.

Feel deep in my bones that the backlash to all of this is going to be enormous. Not sure how it will manifest and when it will explode into view, but confident it’s coming.
