In the darkness, find the light. We wish you and y In the darkness, find the light. We wish you and your families love and light this Hanukkah. Our thanks to @bendthearc for sharing these gifts. We are grateful to our communities and to our partners in seeking collective liberation. Reposted @bendthearc Tonight is the start of Hanukkah, a celebration of hope and persistence in the face of overwhelming obstacles. Jewish holidays — even Hanukkah, with its complex historical roots — offer us an opportunity to find our individual and collective resilience. And what better way to do that than with presents? Here’s Bend the Arc's Hanukkah Gift Guide with eight (free!) gifts for our multiracial movement. It’s perfect to read as you light candles. Or take a moment now to invite in the warmth of Hanukkah. These are only a handful of the gifts we are grateful for within our communities and in our movement work. What gifts are you thinking about this Hanukkah, and what gifts will you be sharing with your loved ones? Comment to let us know.
Today, we celebrate the birthday and legacy of Shi Today, we celebrate the birthday and legacy of Shirley Chisholm, a pioneering educator, activist, and politician who used her voice and leadership to fight for educational change, civil rights, and women's rights. . Bio from @womenshistory: Shirley Anita St. Hill Chisholm was the first African American woman in Congress (1968) and the first woman and African American to seek the nomination for president of the United States from one of the two major political parties (1972). Her motto and title of her autobiography—Unbought and Unbossed—illustrates her outspoken advocacy for women and minorities during her seven terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. Initially, Chisholm worked as a nursery school teacher and earned a master’s degree from Columbia University in early childhood education. Born in Brooklyn, New York, on November 30, 1924, Chisholm was the oldest of four daughters to immigrant parents Charles St. Hill, a factory worker from Guyana, and Ruby Seale St. Hill, a seamstress from Barbados.

This time of year, even during less extraordinary This time of year, even during less extraordinary years, can bring up a mix of emotions for students and families alike. Feelings of anxiety, sadness, and depression are common and can be amplified for families of color and marginalized communities. We are mindful of how this holiday season may impact some of us, and want to emphasize the need to nurture the wellbeing and healing of all in our lives. We wish you and your loved ones rest, ease, and healing. As always, thank you for being in community with us.
On this Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor a On this Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor and remember all those whose lives were lost to anti-transgender violence. Dismantling racism in classrooms and communities isn’t just a lofty ideal: it is a matter of life and death. It’s a matter of real, immediate consequence for children of color whose lives are undermined and threatened by racism and other intersecting forms of oppression every day. Please visit @glsen for resources on how to support a safe and inclusive K-12 school environment for LGBTQ+ youth. Learn more about this important day at @glaad. #TransgenderDayofRemembrance #TDoR #TDoR2023
Tolerance is important. But we need to go beyond t Tolerance is important. But we need to go beyond tolerance to collective liberation. Collective liberation acknowledges that multiple oppressions exist, and that we work in solidarity to undo oppression in ourselves, our families, our communities, and our institutions, in order to achieve a world that is truly free. We work collectively because we recognize that each of us has a stake in ending white supremacy and all related systems of oppression. #InternationalDayofTolerance
