@ravenreveals: What most people DON’T know about teachers… 👀 When we say “representation matters,” it’s more than a simple nicety. The stakes of representation are HIGH; its presence or absence can change the course of MILLIONS of lives. That being said, we’re not in the business of sharing bad news without attempting to ameliorate the issue. HOW do we fix the problem of under-representation? 🍎 INVEST in recruiting teachers of color 🍎 ENSURE that students are represented by their teachers 🍎 SUPPORT your local schools and teachers 📱FOLLOW @Cntr for Black Educator Dev @Nicholas Ferroni and myself for more powerful education! * stats were sourced from The National Center for Education Statistics and The National Bureau of Economic Research #representation #representationmatters #blackeducatorsrock
