An open-access and free resource that is hot off of the press! I love that the authors used storywork to frame this evaluation scholarship. This will be a great resource for researchers and practitioners of evaluation with Native communities. lnkd.in/gQqvHW_w

I had the honor of giving a virtual presentation to a nutrition class this morning at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville on food and culture. I enjoyed sharing about Native community food systems and sharing a bit of Potawatomi history and traditions. The class cooked mnomen after my talk!

Here's a podcast I was invited to be on with Tishina Mindemann: indigenousfoodandag.com/news/press-r... I like how the website outlines our main discussion points. Migwetch to Mary Belle Zook for connecting me with Tishina Mindemann.

September is Suicide Prevention Month. Preventing suicide is a year-long cause that takes all of us. Mark Alabanza and I donate monthly to The Trevor Project. I'm posting to raise awareness and to seek additional The Trevor Project supporters. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ www.thetrevorproject.org/be-the-one/

Always remember: Despite anyone's best efforts to silence us, our oral stories still live. Let us not forget our stories and the lived experiences of our ancestors.

Since it's St. Patrick's Day, I thought it would be fun to share some American Indian history relating to the Irish. www.choctawnation.com/about/histor...

I have the honor of serving on Nathan Nguyễn's dissertation committee. Please see the included graphic announcing the call for research participants. Thanks in advance for sharing the call in your circles. #highered #LGBTQ+ #EDIB

Equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging lifts everyone. The White House occupant does not want to lift anyone except himself. Harmony does not mean fascism. #EDIB

The White House occupant's chaotic and hateful acts mean teachers and families should keep updated on the U.S. Department of Education's press releases and seek clarity from your state's Department of Education. www.ed.gov/about/news/p... #edusky #highered #EDIB

I serve on the LGBTQ+ Advisory with Change Craft and the California Department of Public Health. California health officials announced a sudden cancellation of the LGBTQ+ youth mental health initiative. See the link for more information. www.ebar.com/story.php?33... #LGBTQ+ #LGBTQIA2S+ #EDIB

For those of us who occupy equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging spaces -- we are still here. Future generations depend on us to hold strong despite this four-year storm that starts today. #highered #edusky #EDIB

I'm creating my Spring 2025 course syllabi. For several years, I've maintained a Self-Care Sundays schedule in my class. Please read the thread to view the syllabi language in case you wish to use it in your course syllabi and/or are inspired to create your own Self-Care Sundays syllabi language.

Here's a news piece that includes my expertise/voice in American Indian Studies. It could be a piece California grades 4-12 public schools read: anewscafe.com/2024/12/31/r... #EduSky

If you're a public school teacher, please consider emphasizing seasons over holidays. Not all students celebrate the same holidays, if any. Winter is a great reminder to center seasons over holidays in lessons and decorations to foster an inclusive learning environment. #EduSky #DEIB

I'm excited that, for the third time since October, I'll be presenting about art on agricultural crate labels! I'm presenting to Christopher Lavagnino's fourth grade class and they will be creating their interpretation of agricultural crate labels based on my presentation. #EduSky #AgArt #ArtEd

#LGBTQ+ #LGBTQIA2S+ #EduSky

Gratitude to my friend, Rachel Epp Buller, for inviting me to speak with her art class at Bethel College on my art on agricultural crate labels research! My specific area of research is Native American imagery on California agricultural crate labels. #HigherEd #EduSky #ArtEd

Maybe a couple months ago now, I was nominated (migwetch, Jeanine Gaines) and selected to be on the LGBTQ+ Advisory in California. We now have a logo, so I thought I would share it here. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I generally do not gravitate toward reading fiction. I found this book at Barnes & Noble Booksellers today and thought I would try it out. Would anyone like to read and discuss it together once per week via Zoom? Please let me know and we can schedule our inaugural book chat. 🫐 #EduSky #HigherEd

An intro.! I'm Potawatomi (enrolled) and an Associate Professor of Elementary Teacher Education and American Indian Studies at a university in CA, USA. I teach arts ed and American Indian Studies. My latest publications center storytelling. #EduSky #HigherEd #AmericanIndian #ArtsEd #Storytelling

As a settler holiday approaches, how are we doing with action-oriented, non-performative land acknowledgments and actual land back (you know, where the Tribe has unequivocal Tribal sovereignty and not another "agreement" with a Tribe and organization to further White saviorism)? #EduSky #HigherEd

What are you doing on Thursday that can make it a day to gather, but not a day to celebrate settler colonialism? This thread offers four of my suggestions. #EduSky
