So I’ve had a parent complain that I’m trying to influence their child with my perspectives even though we are analyzing rhetoric. What do you do when faced with this? Like I’m not going to tell your kid what to think but I am going to expose them to different perspectives than just white rural American!!

Feeling really sad about friends I have drifted apart from despite efforts to stay in touch. My best friend from high school and I haven’t seen each other in about 4 years, I messaged her a year ago, got a nice response from her, and I tried keeping the convo going but she left me on read. Offered her and her boyfriend tickets to join me and my boyfriend at a concert in fall 2019, left us on read with no response. Her bday was last week and she left my bday wishes on read too. I’m so sad.

A long post: seeking some perspective. My husband of 2 years that I’ve been in a relationship with for more than 8 years just woke up one day and told me that he’s unhappy in our relationship. I’m devastated because he’s never expressed anything like this in the 8 years. He’s been super supportive and loving, even when we were in a long distance relationship. He supported my career and dreams and this just doesn’t make sense. We have gotten a counselor but things aren’t getting better. Comment>

I have this feeling of “up and down” success with being actively Anti-Racist/Bias and working to foster that in other teachers.. some days I feel this pandemic can be an impetus for positive change (ex: names/numbers on a screen takes away some inherent or explicit bias some instructors have.)
Other days, I hear what teachers say and I feel like it is only strengthening negative stereotypes... anyone else have any insight?
