Today I joined global labor leaders in Nuuk to say Greenland is not for sale! Proud to be in solidarity with brave IMAK educators—we know what authoritarian threats feel like in our classrooms. With @eduinternational.bsky.social, we denounce attacks on Greenland’s autonomy. When we fight, we win!
In June, we mark Gun Violence Prevention Month—it is inexcusable that students and educators are still must live in fear of gun violence in schools and on campuses.
Visit nea.org/gunviolence for resources to heal in the wake of gun violence, and to advocate to end this unconscionable epidemic.

Educators from across the world are in Nuuk.
To stand with IMAK and the people of Greenland.
To defend public education.
To learn from each other.
To build solidarity.
Resources to help support students, cope with crisis, and advocate for safer schools.
Today we begin #PrideMonth, a moment when we should not only spread joy but also courage and support to our LGBTQ+ family, friends, and neighbors.
We will persevere through hardship to celebration ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤
Educators will not live in fear of their own government
We will not allow brilliance to be self-censored before it has a chance to shine.
We will not allow this administration to erase academic freedom or steal students' and educators' futures.

Vouchers weaken our public schools and limit opportunities for students. This is indisputable.
They siphon critical funds away from public schools—where 90% of America's students go—and towards unaccountable private institutions.
Voucher schemes are indefensible.
50 million students attend public school in America.
Educators will not stop advocating until every single one of them has the resources that they need to thrive.
Last week, I was lucky enough to talk to Mandi Jung, NEA member and middle school science teacher in St. Paul, Minnesota.
We reflected on the trauma suffered because of ICE's extreme actions there—and also the incredible outpouring of support from fellow educators.
Because that's just what we do.
