Thanks for sharing this Ariel! Your research is so important in calling attention to and expanding the work around transportation justice and schooling. 👏

Such a great resource w/ info related to early childhood, K-12, & higher ed....along w/ misc. cross-cutting topics like mine on research use. #education #edresearch #edpolicy #researchevidence @aefpweb.bsky.social @dbassok.bsky.social @carajackson.bsky.social. Check it out and share with others👇

Thank you for sharing this @equintero.bsky.social! ‪And thank you to @carlhendrick.substack.com for the thought-provoking essay:‬ "Deep reading..trains us in the moral dispositions that public life requires: attention, imagination, restraint." substack.com/home/post/p-...

"there’s no sidestepping a president deploying the military in an American city based on ludicrous falsehoods about a foreign invasion. Indeed, it’s hard to think of a clearer signpost on the road to dictatorship." I'll be joining "No Kings" mobilization Sat. Find 1 near you: www.nokings.org#map

These are the kinds of stories that help to show how vast and devastating the massive cuts to government offices are, and how they impact people's lives. Thanks for sharing your story about your dad with us @ansleyerickson.bsky.social!

A primary difference between her testimony & other witnesses' was hers was informed by decades of research evidence, along w/her own research, and allowed her to delineate critical areas for oversight. The voice of researchers is so impt to policy dialogue & decision making! #edresearch #edpolicy

Watching live stream of Genevieve Siegel-Hawley doing her public service today testifying abt charter schls & educ equity before House Committee on Education & Workforce's Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary, & Secondary (w/ former student Jenna Roberson in audience) 👏 #edresearch #edpolicy

Grades are in, graduation is tomorrow! What a year! Grateful for these students who made my first year at @umich.edu extra special (and special shout out to Ashley and Brianna for their selfie talents)! #goblue

What a great idea! Sharing for any early career ed policy researchers who may be interested 👇

Was glad to see President Ono's name added to this letter this morning! #courageiscontagious www.aacu.org/newsroom/a-c...

Look what arrived! Congrats to Lora, Peter & @janellescott.bsky.social! This 79-chapter hdbk is critical to our field! @aeraedresearch.bsky.social #education #edpolicy #edresearch Our chapter on educ & social policy w/Jennifer Jellison Holme @markiejay06.bsky.social Walker Swain & Terrenda White

So true! "What is the cost of not resisting? What happens when educators stop defending stdnts & start enabling oppression? Authoritarianism thrives when people bend. It crumbles when they hold firm. For our republic to survive, ed. ldrs must be amng those who hold firm. Our children are watching."

Glad to see this lawsuit brought by @democracyforward.org on behalf of @aeraedresearch.bsky.social & SREE in defense of #edresearch - research that is critical for educators, policymakers, parents, and students. democracyforward.org/wp-content/u...

Yes! An ex. of "strength of weak ties"! Amazing to see 4000+ people joining together. While a few universities are in headlines, people from all different institutions & general public, all over the country, are speaking out in support of education and democracy. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Grading papers (policy-related book & documentary reviews) & thinking abt the amazing group of master's students in my policy analysis class....& how fun it's been to have them in my first class at UMich esp given all going on in the world. #education #edpolicy #GoBlue #EDUC646

A civil rights issue @edebray.bsky.social @janellescott.bsky.social Janel George & I note in a recent brief abt ESEA reauth using our equitable, evidence-based, & ecol. framework.

If you want to join this fight and show your own support for science and education and their essential role in democracy, you can join the 3700+ others who have already signed this open letter from @wearehighered.bsky.social. docs.google.com/document/u/0...

standing up, speaking out, taking risks, thank you @booker.senate.gov 👏👏👏

In case link stops working, here are screenshots of the text that I reassembled from the mailchimp URL. Apologies I could only alt text the first 2000 characters due to word limit. This text and images are quoted from original link posted at top of thread by Carlos F. Jackson, Dean and Professor.

So many aspects of this statement are critically important & the leadership of Dean Jackson is inspiring. I hope this statement causes other leaders across the university & across the country to speak out. Please stop what you are doing and take the time to read it. 👏 mailchi.mp/04bd06b0c03c...

If you have a stake in higher education - faculty, staff, admin, alum, etc - consider signing our public statement affirming the values of education and diversity, and calling on university leaders to step up. It's at bit.ly/DemocracyAndHigherEd. Or look for others at WeAreHigherEd.org

"we believe it is our duty to speak out against the attacks on diversity & pluralism, on scholarship & learning, on academic freedom, & on democracy itself." If you work at a college, university, or community college, no better time than now to read, sign, & share.👇 docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Look forward to reading this recent book by @sarahlenhoff.bsky.social & @jeremylsinger.bsky.social on chronic absenteeism based upon their ongoing research in Detroit.

Important letter to Congress re education department and education research: "Congress must act to protect the nation’s education data, research infrastructure, and knowledge base, by safeguarding the IES and broader USED staff, leadership, and mission." 👇

I'm glad to be a part of this "live handbook" to more broadly share what we know in #education research. My part is on what we know about research use in education: livehandbook.org/miscellaneou... www.the74million.org/article/scho...

Nearly 3,000 signed (incl profs, librarians, staff). You can also sign if you're a student concerned abt attacks on higher ed; alum of college/univ/comm college that made a difference; parent whose child has benefited from higher ed; bus owner/commun. member who values higher ed. Read, sign, share👇

2000+ scholars “publicly affirm [a] commitment to the enterprise of higher education in a democratic and free society, and to the values and practices that facilitate the production, advancement, and sharing of knowledge.”

I really like this idea of "catching courage from each other"...colleagues in higher education, if you haven't signed this yet... docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I know that people in higher educ are working in many different ways to address misinformation & provide safety & support to students, staff, & faculty but when people know others share their values in moments of crisis & in face of attacks it builds collective strength. Pls read, sign, & share👇

Signing this letter helps those of us in higher education to demonstrate our solidarity in the face of attacks on our students, our teaching, our research, and our institutions. Thanks to @daniellaurison.bsky.social & others for pulling this together in this moment of crisis👇

"My sense is that most universities just want to duck & cover & hope that the administration doesn’t come after them....But as a matter of how to strategically respond to an authoritarian administration that is bent on snuffing out any political resistance, it’s a terrible strategy." Read this!👇

See thread below on admin overreach re education (and various responses including calls to not preemptively comply and lawsuits)...👇

Must read by anyone in K-12 or higher educ. Also important: "This guidance does not have the force and effect of law and does not bind the public or create new legal standards." We need a strong public and collective response to this misrepresentation of facts and complete disregard of history.

Looking for #edpolicy books pub. since 2020 for my class & my own reading. Any favorites you've read (or written!!) on ed policy or cross-sector policy issues in U.S. or intl focus?? Or already have a list that you're willing to share? Would love suggestions!!! 👇 #education #edresearch #policy
