It's ironic you mention the TRC because even after two blog posts about it, I haven't read it yet. (Maybe we should commit to doing it together and sharing our thoughts with someone with in-depth knowledge about it?) You also haven't read the "post I may never publish" about one of my most shameful moments as a teacher (and it links to equity). I will try my best to remind myself of the link you end your comment with - "it's a process, not an event" - I just may need more reminders!MZMollyTLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17565896547458451347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3692067574614653754.post-84186308708131926322017-11-28T06:44:16.895-08:002017-11-28T06:44:16.895-08:00Um....you really don't suck at being an ally, ...Um....you really don't suck at being an ally, because you're working on it - that is a huge step.I was out last night at a film viewing as part of KPR's month of honouring indigeneity, and my superintendent (who is an incredibly ally) and my principal (who, along with me, is learning) both really made me think. Jack repeated a call from one of the speakers this month to read the recommendations of the TRC, and pick one, the one that calls to you, to concretely do, with whatever you can bring to the table. My principal made me think with a tweet this morning, along the same lines, which said "Step one is to learn the truth. Step two is to reconcile with belief not lip service". I need to find out whose quote it is,and then walk with that as a guide for a while. I'll finish by quoting another former principal of mine, whose words I should really have on a t-shirt by now - and are likely what would be a tattoo, if I were ever to get one: "It's a process, not an event" Lisa Noblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13240596235858177926noreply@blogger.com
