I miss that here-it’s still a million times better than what Xitter became.

#CleartheAir #Ohedchat and #TheBookChat were the bomb.

Reading Martyr by Kaveh Akbar has made me miss my #TheBookChat family @lyricalswordz.bsky.social @joelrgarza.bsky.social

Martyr would have made for a great chat ☺️

And I need to express gratitude for @joelrgarza.bsky.social and @lyricalswordz.bsky.social for leading a discussion of Water & Salt. I vividly remember everything i learned. #THEBOOKCHAT

A4: I have colleagues who are also very close friends. I know I can count on them.

Online communities that "fill my cup": #THEBOOKCHAT, #DisruptTexts, @sheathescholar.bsky.social & Jess Lifshitz's Rainbow Summer, #TeachLivingPoets, and Lorena & Roberto German's Multicultural Classroom #theedcollab

A4 - A few friends at work help keep me centered in the day-to-day.

I’m hopeful that this will be a space where I can reconnect w/folx I met via educhats like #ClearTheAir & #TheBookChat. Shoutouts to @valeriabrownedu.bsky.social @joelrgarza.bsky.social & @lyricalswordz.bsky.social! #TheEdCollab

Just here to say hey to #DisruptTexts #CleartheAir #TeachLivingPoets & #THEBOOKCHAT. It’s good to be reunited or to meet you if you’re new to me!
Things I adore:
1. Flint, MI.
2. Literacy edu.
3. Disrupting white supremacy
4. Survivor
5. Tacos
Free Palestine! Free Congo! Free Sudan! Free Haiti!

Puhleease tell me that y’all are rebuilding #TheBookChat or something equally rad! @joelrgarza.bsky.social

I’d love to do #theBookChat again, but I imagine @joelrgarza.bsky.social and @lyricalswordz.bsky.social may be too sick at heart to have another go at it.

I heard Dr. @ClintSmithIII answer some questions I’ll be able to take back to my students as we dive into ‘Above Ground.’ Thank you @JoelRGarza and @Lyricalswordz. You’re both so gracious and handsome and lovely!

My Twitter friends are beautiful. 💛

Reading Hell of a Book by @JasonMott for #THEBOOKCHAT and this line really hurt my feelings 😩😅

Thankful to @AnjiWillNBCT and the fellas at #THEBOOKCHAT (@JoelRGarza + @Lyricalswordz) for this beautiful rumination on life from THE Ross Gay 💛 I’m excited!
